Pasitos School Central

Why Pasitos is the Right Choice for your Child

• Our Reggio Emilia based classrooms are child centered, thus allowing your child’s interest to guide us through our daily discussions and learnings; Our children learn while they are having fun because it is interesting to them.
• Your child learns Spanish in a natural immersion play-based environment, so the learning is real and relevant.
• Your child is one of a kind. Our small 6-1 student/teacher ratio allows us to know and love each child for who they are.
• Your child tries and appreciates new and delicious organic foods daily in our garden and during snack.
• Your child values learning and education. So do we. Our teachers all have their BA/BS and background in Early Childhood Education. We also invest regularly in language acquisition, bilingual, and education training for all staff.
• We don’t use disposable items. Your child learns the value of reducing, reusing, composting and recycling.

Our Philosophy

Pasitos is a community based on learning and fun. The teachers guide our students through the weeks, months, and years with the goal being children who have a love for learning and always ask “Why?” We believe

• The relationship between the teacher and the child is critical to building the learning environment. Children learn while they are having fun.
• All children can and will be successful when guided by teachers passionate about their work.
• In the importance and value of bilingual education. Teachers are trained in language acquisition theory and allow for language to develop and unfold in a natural sequence. English and Spanish are both an integral part of our school.
• In being aware of our natural environment and sharing this awareness with the children. This includes healthy organic eating and knowing where our food comes from. Our “green” curriculum is not a separate entity, but an integral part of our classroom that encompasses a reduction of waste and reusing materials whenever possible.
• Teachers craft engaging learning spaces with intentionality because of their advanced education and constant teamwork. This is accentuated by low teacher to child ratios.
