Pathfinders forest preschool program is for children 3 to 5 years old. Students in the program participate in play-based learning, exploration, and self-discovery. Songs, stories, and creative approaches are paired with social-emotional learning to promote a sense of belonging in nature and connections with fellow students.
The program is held Mondays through Fridays from 9:00am to 1:30pm.
Children may be enrolled Tuesday/Thursday in Song Sparrows or Monday/Wednesday/Friday in Water Striders. A few spots are open to attend 5 days a week, mostly for 2nd year students.
This year we will not be using our vans due to COVID-19. Parents will be dropping off directly at local nature parks within 20 minutes of downtown Palo Alto. We hope to be able to use our vans during the 2021-22 school year and return to Eleanor Pardee Park in Palo Alto as our drop-off and pickup location.
