Teacher Appreciation Week, May 4th–8th, gave our families a chance to say thank you in a real and tangible way. Each day, children arrived with flowers, handmade cards, and

Our Kindergarten students enjoyed a wonderful spring adventure during their field trip to Hidden Villa Farms in Los Altos Hills. The day was filled with laughter, curiosity, and hands-on discovery as the children explored the farm, met animals up close, and learned where food comes from.
