Quick answers
The questions we hear most from families before they write in.
What time should I drop off and pick up my child?
Preschool: 8:00 AM drop-off, 5:00 PM pick-up (Mon–Fri). Elementary: 8:30 AM drop-off, 3:30 PM pick-up (Mon–Fri). Aftercare is available at the elementary campus; ask the front desk.
What should I do if my child is sick?
Please keep your child home if they have a fever, are vomiting, or have any symptoms of contagious illness. Notify the school by 8:00 AM via ParentSquare message or call (510) 817-4690. Children must be symptom-free for 24 hours before returning.
Is there a dress code or uniform?
No uniform. Children should wear comfortable, weather-appropriate clothes they can move and get messy in. Closed-toe shoes for outdoor play. Please label everything with your child's name.
Are parents expected to volunteer?
Yes — every Pear Tree family contributes volunteer hours each year. Examples: chaperone field trips, help at events, share a skill or cultural celebration. Sign-up sheets appear on ParentSquare throughout the year.
Who do I talk to about financial aid?
80% of our families receive financial aid. Reach out to admin@peartreecs.com or call (510) 817-4690 to start a confidential conversation about tuition. Aid is need-based with a sliding scale.
Is there aftercare?
Yes, aftercare is available at the elementary campus (6925 Chabot Rd) until 5:30 PM, and the preschool day already runs until 5:00 PM. Pricing and enrollment details available from the front office.
Two campuses, one community.
Preschool runs at both locations. Elementary is at Chabot. Not sure which one you need? Ask when you book a tour and we will point you to the right building.
