This downtown La Jolla educational institution is an independent, coeducational day school. Serving as both a preschool and elementary, students are accepted as young as age two up to sixth grade. The Gillispie School's historical foundations in philanthropy and civic leadership continue to be valued in its present form today, and children are taught to think critically and creatively, communicate effectively and use their natural desire to learn and explore.
In addition to general elementary and preschool curriculum there are also specialty programs in areas like art, science, sustainability and technology. Contact the school directly or visit the Web site for more information about educational philosophy and admissions.
