Common Questions
Do you take children straight from toddler through kindergarten ? Yes What if my child has never been outside much? Most families start here. What if my child doesn't know Spanish yet? That's fine — children pick it up quickly at school. Is the AM/PM Bridge available to everyone? It's for children already enrolled in a part-day kindergarten program elsewhere — we don't provide transportation
