History

Playground Fun

Our school opened in 1972 as a non-profit school independently operated by the parents. We are incorporated and have a board of directors headed by two co-chairs who are elected by the parents each spring. The board meets once a month and makes decisions as designated in the by-laws. Parents' meetings are held several times a year, attendance is mandatory. A yearly budget is drawn up by the board and voted on by the parents.

We rent space and some equipment from St. Paul's Memorial Church but are not affiliated with them. Our income comes solely from registration fees and tuition, which are adequate for competitive teacher salaries, instructional costs and the scholarship program.
