Parents' Comments

Parent #1
was once a great program.
at this time it has poor leadership and no direction
parents pay top dollar while teachers need to buy their own supplies
They advertise programs then don't deliver

Parent #2
Strengths--Small student to teacher ratio; small class sizes; don't force my child into activities, but encourages him to stretch outside his comfort zone; teachers care deeply and really know my child
Weaknes: Cost

Parent #3
Los Altos Christian Preschool is hands-down the BEST preschool in the area. The director and staff are committed, warm, caring, and educated. My daughters LOVES to go to preschool, often wishes away her weekends, just so she can go back to school! They offer gymnastics, music, chapel, and crafts galore --while teaching the children all they need to know for kindergarten. They also have a lunch program and extended day for parents who need this. This is a school that is sensitive to children with food allergies as well. In July they will have 4 weeks of summer camp for ages 2 yrs to 5 yrs old. Any concerns I have had I talk directly with the teacher or director about, and they WANT feedback from parents. Being new to the bay area, I found several good friends among the parents of this preschool, which lead to playdates and carpooling. I completely trust LACP and their staff with my 4.5 yr old darling daughter, and we will be sending our younger daughter there next year as well. Go for a tour, you will NOT be disappointed!
