The San Anselmo Preschool Center states that it is committed to the growth of each child in an emotionally supportive environment that encourages self-acceptance and self-exploration. Its philosophy includes respect for the autonomy of the child in different learning situations, with teachers described as alert and ready to protect, counsel, and guide at the right moment. The mission statement notes an emphasis on the process more than the product of learning and a goal of planting within each child the seed of confidence that grows with every success in meeting a challenge. It also states that, through careful selection of learning materials, the program aims to instill in children the desire, the need, and the joy of learning.
The Executive Director of the San Anselmo Preschool Center is Kathy Newman, and the Executive Director supervises a teaching staff described as well qualified and trained in Early Childhood Education. The center operates as a non-profit corporation run by a volunteer Board of Directors under the auspices of the First Presbyterian Church of San Anselmo, with the board made up of parents (past and present), church members, and members of the Ross Valley community. The program is licensed by the California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division, under State License #210102905, and it runs a 12-month year-round program that includes the option to register for Funtastic Preschool Adventure Camp.
Parent comments about the San Anselmo Preschool Center include statements such as “My child loves every aspect of the SAPS program” and “Love the variation & thoughtfulness of activities always being offered. My kids are very attached to the staff as well.” Other testimonials describe the staff as “dedicated professionals who are also super fun” and note that children “love SAPS and all the teachers and directors.”
