Woodbridge Children’s School describes itself as an intimate, boutique learning environment with restructured classrooms, enhanced outdoor programs, and a fresh, nutritious, organic menu. The school’s 4-Core curriculum builds language, math, science, and social studies skills, with a focus on executive functioning, communication, creativity, and teamwork in a well-rounded, research-based, rigorous curriculum. Learning centers include 1:1 individual, small group, and large group formats, and assessments are given three times per year to track progress. The mission of Woodbridge Children’s School states that every child is seen, loved, and empowered to grow in a safe and nurturing space rooted in deep connection, and that children learn best when they feel safe and cherished. What began in 1982 as a vision for family-focused education opened its doors in 1986 under founding Director Ruby Fulton, and for over four decades the school has been described as a cornerstone of the city of Irvine and the village of Woodbridge. The school combines decades of experience with up-to-date research and NAEYC standards and describes itself as a premier boutique Early Education school with a campus that has been completely reimagined, including restructured classrooms and curriculum and enhanced outdoor programs. The founding Director is Ruby Fulton, and the Executive School Director from 2024 is Sheila Rafat-Saint.
