Violeta loved her time at Alhambra Preschool. She was always happy to go in and spend time with her friends. The teachers and staff care about the children’s well being and their education. They provide healthy meals and snacks for the kids, and always have fun activities for them to enjoy. So happy to have found them and have my child attend their school!

We had such a wonderful experience with The Salvation Army Alhambra Preschool. My daughter absolutely loved her time there and was always happy and excited to go in the mornings. The teachers and staff are warm, caring, and attentive - they truly made her feel safe and supported while encouraging her to grow and learn.

If you are looking for a preschool that is clean, has friendly staff that actually cares about your child and is education based look no further! My son was a part of this school for a year and now my 3 year old daughter attends. They both absolutely love going to school and the staff is so friendly! Truly feels like you are dropping your kids off with family!
