La Primera North Pre-School

For the area, it was good, lots of animals that don’t seem to need to be there. But kids enjoy. Only reason for a 3 star was a friend ds daughter was scratched by a boy — severely. The school didn’t so much as contact her, I realize it’s her experience and not mine but knowing that they didn’t even bother to address it was very unsettling.

My daughter went to this school for almost a year when she was a little over 2.
unfortunately I had to switch due to a scheduling conflict but this was by far the best pre-​school I had experienced. what I like about this place is that they make happy kids. if you want your child to be academically successful from an early age, this may not be the place. I mean they do have that in the curriculum but I felt that they focus more on hands on learning thru dirt playing, caring live animals and planting and so forth. Teachers are very involved in kids’ playing and felt that they genuinely like kids. Also they have higher ratio of teachers (or teachers assistant) to students so they are less likely to be worn out from kids. I had experienced 3 schools so far and this is my favorite.
As for their hours, it is basically 9 – 12. You can pay extra to drop off early and/​or pick up late but those fees add up and can get a bit expensive and still the latest to pick up is like 3 — 4pm or something like that. Which is why I, the working mom ended up changing the school but I think if you don’t have that issue, I’d say very good overall.

Love this school!

Both my kids went here. Great staff!
