WHAT MAKES US STAND OUT:​

​We prioritize the quality of education and personal attention your child receives. That's why our classrooms are staffed with four lead teachers at all times. This commitment ensures a low student-to-teacher ratio, allowing for more individualized instruction and support. With a dedicated team, we can cater to each child's unique learning needs so they can thrive. Your child's education is our top priority, and our exceptional teacher-to-student ratio is just one of the ways we deliver on that promise.

​

We believe that learning should be an engaging adventure. Designed to foster creativity and critical thinking, our environment encourages children to actively participate in their education. Through dynamic small group activities and circle times, students are given the opportunity to socialize and explore their ideas and interests. This approach not only enhances their learning experience but also builds essential life skills like communication, collaboration, and problem-solving. We are committed to creating a nurturing space where every child can thrive and feel empowered in their learning journey.

​

At magpies, we take immense pride in being recognized as the best preschool in Sacramento year after year. But what truly sets us apart is the heartfelt feedback we receive from our families. They cherish our dynamic environment, dedicated educators, and engaging curriculum designed to foster creativity and curiosity in young minds. With a strong emphasis on community, we ensure that every child feels valued and supported. Join our classroom and discover why so many parents trust us to provide their little ones with a solid foundation for Learning. Your child's lifelong love for learning begins here!

​

OUR MISSION:

To foster the curiosity, growth, and exploration of our students, families, and community.  We believe in developing a classroom-to-home bridge that encourages healthy self-esteem and self-knowledge in the child’s many environments.

 

OUR PHILOSOPHY:

We strive to take advantage of the teachable moments that happen every day to promote the cognitive, emotional, and physical growth of our students.  Our play-based approach guided by teachers allow children to interact with their environment and learn by doing through concrete, hands on experiences and exploration.
