PreSchool Family PreSchool Family is an unbelievable resource for parents and children. I enrolled when my daughter was one. At age 2, she was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. PreSchool Family is the one place outside our home that I know is safe for my daughter. At PreSchool Family, the Parent Education sessions offer excellent support and the teachers are there to help parents navigate new and challenging situations. If you are interested in building a bigger community for you (the parent) and your child, PreSchool Family is the place for you. Dana Nelson

Parenting & Family

Palo Alto Adult School parent participation preschool helps children and adults form lasting community connections. For more than 65 years, we have offered preschool programs organized primarily for parent education. Parents develop a deeper understanding of early childhood development and parenting skills through adult discussion classes, formal and informal observations, and community exchanges. The school provides children and their families a nurturing play-based curriculum helping children develop in all areas including creativity, cooperation, peaceful conflict resolution, positive communication, fine and gross motor skills and kindergarten readiness. Our unique participatory structure allows parents to be involved in their children’s preschool education. Please contact the school for more information. All classes are state supported.
