Valley Preparatory School

Valley Preparatory School Valley Prep School, located in Redlands, California, is a coeducational independent day school offer

Our vision is for Valley Prep to be a 21st century learning institution that graduates students who are confident communicators, critical thinkers, and problem solvers who are motivated to engage in life-long learning and empowered to achieve personal and educational goals in a culturally diverse, global community. Additionally, the graduate will be a highly literate and well-balanced student who has developed an appreciation for the arts and world languages and has the ability to acquire knowledge and access information using well developed technological skills. To this end, we continually evaluate our curriculum, learning resources, and facilities to ensure a learning environment that supports this vision.

Our 2nd graders have been getting chalky and creative! They learned how to work with chalk pastels, practice blending two colors together, and used that process to create their very own wacky birds!

We love seeing their creativity take flight! 🐦✨🎨

Our first graders were inspired by Michael Recycle and created colorful posters to remind everyone to recycle ♻️ and care for our Earth. As part of our IB “Sharing the Planet” unit, students are learning how their choices can make a positive impact on the world around them. 🌱

One of the most popular auction items at our Annual Fall Fest? “PE Teacher for the Day!”

This year, the honor went to Pre-K student Raiy, who stepped up to the challenge alongside the one and only Mrs. Broccoli!

From the field to the carpool lane, Raiy embraced every part of the role. She helped lead stretches, supervised activities, and proudly suited up in the iconic broccoli costume to hand out broccoli across campus. Her enthusiasm, confidence, and leadership were on full display all day long.

We might just have a future PE teacher on our hands! Thanks for bringing the energy (and the greens), Raiy! 🥦💚

Spring has sprung in our kindergarten class! 🌸🐣

This week, our kindergarteners have been exploring the life cycle of chicks, learning how they hatch, what they eat, and how to care for them. To bring their learning to life, each student had the special opportunity to adopt their very own chick! They made heartfelt promises to feed, read to, and take care of their new little friend. 💛

They also put on their scientist hats for a fun egg experiment! Students compared a regular raw egg to eggs soaked in vinegar & food coloring. After two days, they were amazed to discover the shells had dissolved, leaving behind bouncy eggs! They carefully held and gently bounced them, bringing science to life in such an exciting way.

Special thank you to for making & donating all of the chicks and name tags! 🐥

What a lucky day it was on campus! 🍀💚

Our kindergarten students eagerly checked their leprechaun traps, hoping to see if their clever designs had finally captured their mischievous visitor. The excitement and anticipation made the day even more magical!

Across campus, students showed off their green spirit wear, and the day was filled with a touch of St. Patrick’s Day magic. ✨
