Organizations Filed Purposes:
Our philosophy is built on the idea that every person possesses a unique set of abilities, challenges, and character traits. Each child comes to school with a special set of plans and preferences. School is not something that we do to kids, but something that creates a partnership with them. We tell children what we are going to do - and why. School rules have reasons. Though we like to see kids participate in all activities offered, we honor a child's choice to be an observer or to focus on those activities that interest him/her. We support kids as they join in, get messy, take risks, and try something new.
The primary exempt purpose of Los Angeles Family School, as supported by the mission statement and articles of incorporation, is to provide education for young children within the context of a safe, stimulating child care center. We serve sixty families, single-parent households as well as those in which both parents work. We are located in Silver Lake, a socio-economically and ethnically diverse neighborhood ten minutes from downtown Los Angeles, We strive to have our student body reflect the wide variety of backgrounds represented in this neighborhood.All our fund raising efforts help keep our school affordable, thus avoiding some of elitism that is seen in more expensive schools. Because tuition does not cover budgeted expenses, there is a shortfall of about $590 per child per year. Our annual giving campaign allows financially secure families to cover that shortfall while other activities (such as the Holiday Boutique, Fall and Spring rummage sales and Spring Faire) fill the remaining financial gap.Aside from creating a non-elitist environment, these activities also allow our students to practice many of the principles and social skills which they have learned in school.
