About Us
¿Quiénes somos?
Our Name
When choosing a name, we wanted it to reflect our commitment to valuing children's self expression and encouraging their voices to be heard. In Spanish, "Pío Pío" is the sound that a chick makes! You might recognize the phrase from the traditional Spanish lullaby, "Los pollitos dicen."
Our Class Size
A small class size and low student-to-teacher ratio in Early Childhood classrooms allow for greater individual attention to young learners, thus helping them to develop their language, social-emotional, problem solving, and cognitive reasoning skills at a faster rate. We are proud to offer a 6-to-1 student-to-teacher ratio.
