Director's Comments
Question to director: Do you have any additional thoughts on what parents should consider when looking at your school? Is there any advice that you would like to provide to prospective parents?
Our director and staff are thoroughly experienced and qualified to guide your child with understanding and patience. They attend in-service training workshops and participate in their own regular staff meetings. Basic pre-requisites for hiring, aside from professional education and experience, are that the teachers must be professing Christians and have a genuine love and concern for young children. The majority of our teachers have Bachelor Degrees and all exceed the minimum number of units in early childhood education required by the State of California.

Being Savvy Today
The Wild Tangle of Grasses
If there was a single photo that could capture my feelings and thoughts about the past year, this would be it. It reminds me to keep looking toward the brightness of the light, even if I am caught in the wild tangle of grasses. This shot reminds me that
Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?
What school type is right for your child? Is one model better than another? What does the research say?
View an example from the Savvy Source guide to learn more.
Today's “Preschool’s Out” Activity
Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
