Almost smack-dab in the middle of the beautiful state of North Carolina lies the small city of Sanford. Sanford is a family-friendly community with a rich local history in the railroad, along with many fun local amenities, including gorgeous parks and nature trails. The low crime rate and high quality of life are just two of the reasons why families love living in Sanford.
One reason that families love living in Sanford is that there are so many fun oudoorsy things to do here. San-Lee Park is one of the more popular local public parks, and it includes many unique amenities, including bike paths of various levels of difficulty, and footpaths for hikers as well. This network of trails is very popular for local outdoor enthusiasts, and it promotes a healthy lifestyle. San-Lee Park is not far from the cute downtown area of Sanford, making it easily accessible.
The local arts and culture scene here in Sanford is vibrant, especially considering that Sanford is not a large city. Because of its extensive history in the railroad industry, Sanford is home to the Railroad House Museum, which brings in tourists and visitors from around the country. Here in town, locals love going to the Temple Theatre to catch a local play, concert, or other performance. The Lee County Community Orchestra calls Sanford home, and performs in local venues regularly, to the delight of local Sanford residents.
When it comes to the local economy here in Sanford, the position of the city has lent itself well to a variety of unique industries. One such industry is brick production, and this is due to Sanford’s geographical location, and the composition of the local land. Because Sanford is between various regions, the clay content in the soil is ideal for making clay bricks, and for that reason, Sanford was referred to as the brick capital of the world, and that has been the city’s nickname since the 1960s. Besides brick production, Sanford is also home to many companies in the biological technology field, which provides many jobs to local North Carolina residents.
As Sanford is located within Lee County in North Carolina, local students have access to several high quality Lee County public schools. With several public elementary schools located in Sanford, along with several public middle schools and three public high schools, there are also a number of private schools, including a Montessori school for younger students. For any local students living in Sanford that seek a little extra after-school help, local Sanford tutors are available. These local tutors can meet up with each student one-on-one and help them work toward achieving their educational goals.

Our packages are highly customizable based on your budget, preferred session cadence, time frame, location, and a few other factors. You’ll be presented with clear pricing before you begin. We support families in choosing the session length and cadence that works best for their individual situation; no hard sales tactics and no obligation to purchase a long-term package.
