Where Every Child Flourishes
I’m grateful that we decided to go with Magical Beginnings.
The love and care they’ve shown our son needs to be studied and replicated!
It’s going to be sad for us and especially my son when he leaves his beloved teachers but I know he’ll go on to kindergarten well prepared and with plenty of memories from his time here. Thank you truly for all you’ve done!

All of the teachers are so sweet and have become to feel like family.
I would highly recommend the school to all looking for a loving and supportive environment for your kiddos to learn and thrive!!

Hi! Hola! 你好!
Early childhood at Avenues is full of joy, discovery, and exploration—and unfolds entirely in two languages. The Early Learning Center (toddler through kindergarten), which includes the Small World Program (for 1s and 2s), is housed in a state-of-the-art facility, purpose-built for our unique programs.

From Small World to 5th grade, students spend 50% of their time learning in English and 50% learning in a second language, either in Spanish or Mandarin Chinese.
Learning Through Play
