Preschool Welcome Letter 2025 Welcome to Pacific Preschool! Just ten miles north of Santa Cruz and less than six miles from Bonny Doon, Pacific Preschool in Davenport offers each child the opportunity for maximum social, emotional, physical, and intellectual growth. The program provides a rich environment wherein children experience success, practice independence and develop confidence and self-esteem. Inspired by the pandemic, but now a permanent change, the program focuses on outside activities, with students spending the bulk of their time outside each day (weather and air quality permitting).

Staff and Communication Rosie Perez teaches preschool, and is assisted by bilingual classroom aide Julia Valle, and classroom aides Ashley Chapman, Mailynn Flores, and Charlotte Wheaton.
