Old Firehouse School Bayview: A New Nature and Wildlife-Based Preschool, Opening This Summer in San Rafael!

Marin Mommies presents a sponsored article from Old Firehouse School.

Old Firehouse School has become a well-recognized name for preschool offerings in the Bay Area with locations in Mill Valley, San Rafael, as well as Walnut Creek and Lafayette. OFS’s curriculum is deeply rooted in the Reggio-Emilia approach with an emphasis on attachment theory. We believe that "relationships are at the core of children’s development and with that, comes immersive and meaningful experiences which allow their passions to be ignited."

At Old Firehouse School, we believe children are inherent scientists who explore the world with eyes wide open. Our Reggio-Emilia curriculum reinforces that notion and allow children to follow their passions through an exploratory classroom, giving them robust opportunities to be stewards of the natural world. Our inspiring, nature-focused campus naturally teach them the scientific method by affording children the ability to sight-see through a hands-on approach; whether it be watching butterflies take flight in one of our many gardens, or seeing egrets land on the marsh nearby. At OFS Bayview, we marry the wonderment of nature with technology, with the mission of nurturing a generation of young minds who are prepared for the years ahead and with deep gratitude to the natural world.

Old Firehouse School Bayview is currently enrolling for their June/July summer program starting at age 2, and are scheduling tours for our upcoming Fall semester.
