About Us

History

The preschool originated as part of the Pacific Palisades Presbyterian Church located on Sunset Blvd. It was reborn as Palisades Preschool in the summer of 1999 when a group of dedicated parents joined a director and a teaching staff they believed in and set out to open a new school. Now, as a part of the Santa Monica palisades, the preschool is housed within St. Paul’s Lutheran Church on Lincoln Blvd. and is celebrating its tenth year at this site.

Our recently modified logo represents our continuing evolution as a community of educators, families and children. Keeping the original logo template of children at play, we have chosen to transform the symbol’s original primary blue, red and yellow into shades of blue, brown and green—the colors of the ocean and sky meeting the Santa Monica palisades. This color reconstruction reflects our intention to redefine ourselves as we continue to refine and enhance our educational practices within the context of our history as a community.
