Looking for Reggio-inspired preschools in the Valley

[Michelle M.]

I'm finding that several schools not listed as formally Reggio-Emelia with NAREA are nonetheless practicing the Reggio approach (or something close to it) . . . but it's hard to find them! Any suggestions, either for schools themselves or ways to find them would be gratefully appreciated.

Hi Michelle. My children went to a "Reggio inspired" preschool in Hollywood called The Sunshine Shack (http://thesunshineshack.com) which we absolutely adored. I know that the school's director is very involved in a community of like-minded directors who all support each other with building their curriculums, teacher trainings, mentoring etc. I'm wondering if you could get in touch with a school director at a school you love but that might not be in your area & ask if they might be able to suggest Reggio schools for you to tour. Our school director's name is Sara Perets & I would bet that she would give you suggestions if she knows of any.

Hey, you can go with Phoenix preschool (http://www.aseds.org/all-saints-pre-k), who is well known for best education. I also enrolled my 2 kids there and got good results in aspect of moral ethics and basic knowledge. I am sure you will also like the facilities and services of this school.
