About us
For 40 years, Peñasquitos Christian Preschool has served the families of Inland North County by providing high quality, developmentally appropriate, Christian education for preschool age children. We are inspired by the blessing and gift that children bring to our lives as they discover who God created them to be. We are grateful for the families who have connected with our school in our past, and we look forward to a future together with your family. The best is yet to come!

NAEYC Accreditation: The Mark of a Quality Program
The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) is the world’s largest organization working on behalf of young children with nearly 80,000 members, a national network of more than 300 state and local affiliates, and a growing global alliance of like-minded organizations.
For more than 80 years, NAEYC has worked to raise the quality of programs for all children from birth to age eight. A major part of NAEYC’s efforts is to improve early childhood education through the system of accreditation for programs that are deeply committed to meeting the highest national standards of quality.
Since 1985, NAEYC’s national, voluntary accreditation system has set professional standards of quality for early childhood education programs and helped families identify high-quality programs for their young children.
Peñasquitos Christian Preschool, a program that is accredited by NAEYC since 1987 has a vision to foster quality in the training and experience of early childhood professionals and experts through initiatives that are responsive to the needs of the families that we serve.
Established in Quality.
Motivated by Curiosity.
Encouraged through Community.
“We love PCP because it’s a wonderful and nurturing environment. My son loves going to school every day.”
