Introduction

Valley Preparatory School, established in 1957 in Redlands, California, offers an independent education for students from preschool through eighth grade. As an authorized International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, it implements the Primary Years Program (PYP) within a framework that emphasizes inquiry and thematic learning. A hallmark of the school is its specialized STEAM initiative, which integrates science, technology, engineering, and mathematics with the arts. Students in grades 2 through 8 participate in a 1:1 MacBook laptop program, supporting a curriculum aligned with standards-based grading to track mastery of core subjects. Facilities include dedicated spaces for visual arts and music, as well as a library and technology labs. The school is particularly known for its "Academic Arcade," an extended-day program for younger students that bridges formal instruction with thematic crafts and physical activity. With a student-to-teacher ratio of 15:1, the school provides a focused, non-sectarian environment tailored for prospective families seeking an international standard of education.
