34 years strong
Los Angeles Family
School (LAFS) is a progressive, non-profit, parent participatory school
for children aged two to six. Established in 1972 in Silverlake, a diverse
neighborhood ten minutes from downtown Los Angeles, LAFS is
proud of their long and rich history. Our families represent a wide
variety of socio-economic, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds.
Our emergent curriculum focuses on developmentally appropriate
practices and fosters independence and social competence by
emphasizing problem solving, peaceful conflict resolution, and
creativity.
