Kirk O'the Valley Preschool
Preschool in Reseda, CA 91335
KOV Elementary strives to be a place where children love to be because they feel safe being themselves. We meet children where they are academically and challenge them. We have high expectations of them morally and ethically, and we treat them with respect.
If coNFLict arises, we listen to their side of the story. Our diverse student body enables them to experience differences and to learn respect for others unlike themselves. We partner with the home to extend these values into the life of each student at school.
By developing the whole child, a grounding takes place that enables children to transition into a variety of new environments, both large and small, as they move to middle school and beyond. Evidence of this succesSFul approach can be seen in the high percentage of our students who are now in four-year colleges around the country including every UC in California. Often times students return to us to say how important their elementary years were to them.

At Kirk O’ The Valley School, ours is a child-centered philosophy with a “touch of realism.” While our curriculum and assessment program align with California state guidelines, we maintain the flexibility to make sure that all children are succesSFul learners. We do not try to make kids fit a curriculum; our children are viewed, and valued, as individuals.
- Attention is focused on individual learning styles.
- Multiple Intelligences Theory is applied in a generally traditional learning environment.
- Kirk students are encouraged to love learning and to “be children”, yet are able to transition to highly structured middle schools such as Chaminade, Viewpoint, Sierra Canyon, and LAUSD magnets.
