Our mission is to provide a creative learning experience by emphasizing play, both indoor & out!

The school maintains a consistent, child-centered program with developmentally-appropriate practices. The focus is learning through play both indoors and outdoors with an approach that promotes a positive self-concept. TCS strives to be a safe place where children can learn to be creative independent, problem-solving individuals. Its goal is to lay the foundation for the inner strength and resilience necessary for each child to meet the demands of his or her world.

Tiny hands, big teamwork 🧽🚗 Our toddler class has been hard at work practicing their car washing skills and getting ready for our annual car wash! This is our final fundraiser of the year and an extra fun one, because every dollar raised goes toward a school-wide pizza party!! 🍕💦✨

For so many years, our adobe house has been gently cared for by the hands of the children who came before, each class leaving their own small mark on a shared, living tradition 🤎

Our soon-to-be kindergarteners stepped into that story. After a year of hearing about the house and all it holds, they mixed and shaped adobe bricks, then helped patch and care for the house itself, adding their own touch to something that has been loved for generations.

Working side by side, June Bugs and Stinky Feet kiddos carried on the rhythm of care that keeps this space whole.. A little mud, a lot of heart, and another layer added to the story 🧱🤎
