I quite literally had to go into therapy after my time here bullying homophobia and Im pretty sure that if I had stayed in PAUSD I would have ended up with some form of depression. However the food and teachers were both really good.

I miss this place. I went here years ago and still remember it. The best pizza days and fun dancing with my friends. I miss it so much and the teachers were the best. I remember that the playground area is really fun and big and the teachers are so so sweet.

The kiddie pool is amazing. Organized like a five-petal flower each section has a different depth or gradient. Perfect for introducing children ages 0 and up. Crowded on a summer day but not unbearably so.
