Bullis Charter School, North Campus

Music Together takes place in every Children's House classroom, alongside circle times with books, stories, songs, poems and chants. We offer children choices in mathematics, science, practical life, movement and language arts, using differentiated teaching in a language-rich setting with exposure to two languages. Each child belongs to a small family group, with a teacher who shares updates about the child's day. Our National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) accredited toddler and preschool program includes children with special needs, and we work with families on each child's development. We also run the Children's House Clubhouse for children in transitional kindergarten through sixth grade at Loyola, Springer and Gardner Bullis. Before school care begins at 7:30 a.m.; after school care continues until 6 p.m. Children can join on-campus language, science, sports and scouting activities while in our care, and we offer care during school-year breaks. Children's House of Los Altos began in 1978 and remains a family-owned program for toddlers, preschoolers and school-age children.
