“Primavera opened many doors and gave way to a multitude of opportunities for which I am forever grateful. I continue to excel academically and socially. I hope that you and your child will come to know and take advantage of the Primavera Difference.”
- Ben Schild -
Former Student at Primavera
“Primavera is a charmed place. It is not a place seeking perfection, but rather, humanity and the collective dream of our children's future. Primavera was a place where our children learned to respect themselves, their peers, and their teachers. They learned the discipline and joys of learning. It was a place of profound optimism. I always felt more hopeful about life and my children’s future after a visit with their teachers. It was a place of enchantment, too. The children knew that this school was theirs, parents were only visitors.”

Parent at Former Primavera School
"My daughter graduated from Primavera School in 1994. I am proud to say I have served on the Primavera School Board for over 25 years. I do this because the school did so much to help my child become a happy, well educated and successful adult. She is now a Physician Assistant. The concept of "teaching the whole child" is so true for us, as she also loves music and the outdoors"

Parent of Primavera Student
“Our oldest son, a senior in high school, still considers Pam Brown the best teacher he ever had. He took high school algebra as an 8th grader and is taking advanced placement calculus as a senior. He credits Pam with his success in math because of the logic and thinking skills she taught him in his years at Primavera.”

Parents of Three Former Primavera Students
“Primavera has been my heart and soul for over 30 years. It began in 1987 when I joined the staff as the Preschool Teacher, and three years later, became the Executive Director until my retirement in 2020. My daughter attended Primavera through her elementary years, and now my two grandchildren are following in her footsteps. Primavera has consistently provided generations of students a superior academic education, a supportive and loving community of teachers, parents, and students, and a magical, experiential outdoor environment that promotes health and well-being. The life-long friendships among our community members are a testimony to the “Primavera Difference.” My love and gratitude for the Primavera community is enormous, and the memories of those years are precious. I am now on the Board of Directors, serving my beloved school, as we embrace future generations with love, support, hope, and continued success.”
- Carol Darrow -
Former Primavera Director & Current Board Member
"We learned of Primavera School at the recommendation of a friend. Our firstborn was 3 years old and we were looking for a preschool that wasn’t a daycare. I loved the balance of hands on learning, structured play, and outdoor exploration that Primavera offered. We thought we would only stay for preschool and pre-K then go to public school. But as we fell in love with the staff and environment there we chose to stay. All three of my children went to Primavera from 3 years old until the end of elementary school. Each of my boys developed a love of learning and such a special connection to Primavera School that they still bring up memories that they remember now in their teen years. It’s hard to put into words the incredible impact Primavera School made on each of us. Once a penguin, always a penguin."
