Our Programs
La Escuelita Preschool
18 months–Kindergarten
We have a small student population, with two to three teachers in each class to ensure every child has the attention they need. We separate into two age groups, toddlers and pre-k/kindergarten.
Our program start date is just after Labor Day and runs year long for all age groups. Once accepted, students attend all 12 months of the year, 5 days per week. We do not offer partial week attendance. Our traditional school day begin at 8:30AM and ends at 3:30PM. Extended Care is available until 5:30 pm, with limited availability.
Though our After School Alumni program has been part of what we've offered in the past, on account of COVID and to ensure the safety of our community, we are offering traditional and extended care only to our enrolled students at this time. This section of the website will reflect when we begin to offer care to After School Alumni students again.
Club PM Extended Care
18 months–Kindergarten
La Escuelita is excited to offer Club PM, our extended care program to our enrolled students. Club PM is available from the end of our traditional school day until 5:30 pm, with limited availability.
La Escuelita del Bosque
Kindergarten graduates –3rd Grade graduates
We love keeping in touch with our families after they have graduated from our program! We invite Alumni and Non-Alumni Students who have completed K-3rd grades to attend our multi-week summer camp, La Escuelita del Bosque: Nature & Spanish Immersion Summer Camp, each June and July.
La Escuelita del Bosque offers the chance for students to advance their Spanish language skills and strengthening their connection with nature. Our teachers believe that outdoor classrooms provide deep learning experiences for children and summer is a perfect time to explore the outdoors.
La Escuelita del Bosque '23 will run as a week-by-week program, June though July 2023, from 8:30am-3:30pm. Please refer to this section of the website for more information starting March 2023.
