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.
