  Rayuela's teachers and staff give so much to the students and the school, and we're so glad to have found this wonderful community. The curriculum, philosophy, and even the toys are all thoughtfully chosen. It is such a special place where kids from so many different backgrounds share something special in common: growing up as bilingual Spanish speakers. It's not only a great Spanish immersion program, but a fantastic school and community.

  Rayuela is a wonderful play-based Spanish immersion preschool that not only helped our son develop his language and social skills, but also gave us a robust community of dedicated families and educators. From the moment that I heard about the Rayuela Spanish Immersion school, I knew I wanted my son to be part of this amazing community. I was so excited when we were notified we were off the waitlist and offered a spot at their original Altadena campus, just a short walk from our house. Our son attended for two years (until he started TK recently), and over that time Rayuela became so much more than just a school. With Rayuela, we witnessed our son grow from toddler to big kid, we saw his Spanish language skills develop, and we joined a community of children, parents, and teachers with a shared vision of bilingualism and multiculturalism. We also experienced a collective heartache as the campus, our family home, and so much of Altadena were lost to the Eaton fire. Rayuela was there for us in so many ways as we all navigated the immense personal and community losses. Now relocated in Highland Park, Rayuela has shown that community truly transcends physical spaces and we will join them again as soon as our baby is old enough to enroll.

  This review is long overdue! We've been part of the Rayuela community for the past five years, and it has truly become more than just a school, it’s become our family. Both of our children (who are very different from each other!) have thrived here. It’s clear that Rayuela is a place that supports all kinds of learners and personalities. As a non-native Spanish-speaking household, the language aspect was especially important to me. Both of my kids have grown comfortable not only with the Spanish language but also with the diverse cultures that come with it. I'm confident in saying that I have bilingual learners. The teachers are absolutely wonderful and kind. They treat my kids like their own. Even though the school is play-based, both of my children have shown strong academic growth. My oldest was more than ready for kindergarten, and my youngest is on the same path. I can’t say enough good things about Rayuela. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a warm, caring community where their child can grow socially, academically, linguistically, and holistically.

  This is the ONLY 100% Spanish immersion school I've found in the area where the teachers actually speak Spanish all day and our kids are fluent. We are sosososo happy that we found the Rayuela school. We moved from Brooklyn New York and had trouble finding a school that wasn't "bilingual". Rayuela is completely outstanding. I've never seen our daughter (age 4) and her sister (age 2) more excited to run into school. It's this fabulous combination of Montessori style with a Spanish immersion. Each day is full of thoughtful, creative, challenging classes. We're so happy we found this place and cannot recommend enough.

  Rayuela is a very special school, and I would highly recommend it to anyone! My husband and I wanted our son to learn to speak spanish, and we were lucky to find a place that not only taught him that, but that also follows Montessori methods including 'learning through play' and fosters independence by 'not doing anything for the child that they can do for themselves'. Our son just turned four, and has attended for the last two years, and now he is teaching us words and songs in spanish, can converse completely (with the most perfect little accent), and has also made amazing amigos and learned so much. The director cares deeply for the kids, and goes above and beyond in whatever way she can. Again, I can't recommend this school enough!

  We enrolled in Rayuela because after living abroad for a year in Mexico, we were eager for our son to continue to be immersed in a Spanish-speaking educational environment and to retain his bilingual foundation. While he has been at Rayuela, it has been gratifying to watch him strengthen his ability to communicate in two languages. More importantly, though, Rayuela has provided a deeply enriching, nurturing, and caring environment where our son is learning and thriving. He loves his friends and his maestras (teachers); if he could, he would go to school on the weekends too. We feel so fortunate that our son has had the opportunity to attend this school, and we're so  glad to be a part of Rayuela’s community.
