Meet our Toddler and Preschool teachers while exploring the classrooms and campus. Children are welcome and invited to attend.

We are currently taking applications for the Fall 2023 school year. SCPENS provides a play-based, nurturing, practical education for both children and their parents. We are a parent participation preschool and the only parent co-op in Santa Cruz with a toddler program accepting children starting at 15 months of age. Come see what we’re all about!
