The Community Preschool

 The Community Preschool's intentional socio-economic diversity brings together children and families that represent a multitude of identities in the goal of validating and respecting all of the intersectionalities present within this special community of San Francisco. It is an extraordinary early childhood program that prepares children not just for kindergarten success, but for life itself.
