At Pepitas we play! Students are exposed to a wide variety of individual and collaborative art projects, science experiments, math exploration and literacy through stories, songs, and early reading/writing skills. We have outside adventures on the playground; snack time where we take time to replenish our energy, enjoy each other, and discuss aspects of our weekly theme. In the classroom we hold circle time where we advance the calendar, discuss el clima, sing songs, and read books. Music time in the mornings is where we sing, dance, and play instruments. And of course, we focus on Spanish and English throughout the day. We don’t have a designated Spanish time. We speak and sing Spanish and English all day!  Pepitas is a wonderful place to introduce your child to school.

We are dedicated to making learning joyful!

Transitional Kinder Class

Join us for innovative Transitional Kindergarten learning in a small class environment. Our bilingual teacher uses both Spanish and English throughout the day, focusing especially on Spanish in stories, songs, math, and science. Students are given the space to learn and grow, which creates opportunities for them to make choices about their learning. When we listen to and honor kids’ goals, values, and interests, they become engaged and excited about learning! Our aim is for children to take ownership of their education, fostering self-sufficiency, life-long learning, and responsibility as world citizens.
