Welcome from our Administrators
Thank you for your interest in
McDowell Elementary and Children's Choice Preschool.

We have been a leader in private education in South Orange County for over thirty years. McDowell Elementary and Children's Choice Preschool appeals to parents who are seeking a small, energetic learning environment tailored to the needs of the student who is performing at age/grade levels or above.

Our class composition and instructional programs are uniquely appropriate for students of average ability or above who are seeking peers and instructors to challenge them to achieve their full potential. In this climate of mutual respect we acknowledge the intellectual, social and emotional growth of each child.

Our elementary classes concentrate on core academics, and a well-rounded curriculum that includes music, Spanish, art, physical education and computers skills. Each year, our students at each grade level routinely score significantly above average in the Sat9 standardized tests.

Please take a look through our web site. It will help you better understand our program and our philosophy. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have. We recognize that this is a very difficult decision for your family and will provide you with any information you require to assist in your selection of a private school.
