The Child's Primary School, San Diego
Courses / Programs
The Child's Primary School, a private kindergarten through to eighth grade school, was founded in 1983 based on the principles of value and respect for the individual uniqueness of each child. Located in Clairemont in Northern San Diego, near Tecolote Canyon Natural Park, we serve families throughout Clairemont, Clairemont Mesa East and West, Linda Vista, Bay Oak and the surrounding communities.

Our educational philosophy is grounded in the richness of the individual diversity and respect for all people. We understand learning to be an exciting and lifelong process and to include all aspects of the whole child: physical, emotional, social, and intellectual. We promote a safe environment where the curiosity and quest for learning of all persons - including children, family, faculty, and staff - are encouraged, supported, and challenged.
