Almaden Parents’ Pre-school

Our Story

Founded in 1969 by a dedicated group of parents in south San Jose, Almaden Parents’ Pre-school (APPS) was established to enhance early childhood education through active parental involvement. Utilizing a co-op preschool model, parents and teachers collaborate to create a nurturing environment where children can thrive physically, emotionally, socially, and intellectually. With a commitment to sequential cognitive development, APPS has been a cornerstone of the community, opening its doors to 72 member families and continuing to grow ever since.

Impact

Families at APPS experience a vibrant community where learning is both fun and engaging. The dedicated teachers foster a love for learning, while parents benefit from Positive Discipline coaching, enhancing their parenting skills and strengthening family bonds.
