Petaluma Village Preschool is owned by teacher and Petaluma native Casey Arntz. It utilizes the Reggio Emilia Approach, which focuses on education as a process and places the student's experience at the center of the learning environment. In keeping with the Reggio Emilia Approach, the teachers document the student's work in a number of ways, including photographs, teacher commentary and transcriptions of student's speech in order to give parents a window into their child's education, allow teachers to evaluate the learning process and emphasize to the children that their work is valued. Students at Petaluma Village Preschool have the opportunity to learn through art, gardening, storytelling, yoga, language studies in English and Spanish, music and more. This school is also in the preliminary stages of implementing a green school campaign.
