Schools
We create a foundation for children’s healthy development and school readiness. We work with children to foster: a love of learning; literacy and numeracy skills, social and emotional development; curiosity, exploration and creativity; cooperation and collaboration; problem solving skills; and respect for self, family, community and the environment. We are proud to maintain the highest standards for our centers. Each member of our teaching staff is: (1) Interactive and engaged in each child’s learning; (2) CPR and First Aid certified, and trained in the latest Health and Safety practices; (3) Health screened, TB tested, and fingerprinted with clearance as required by Community Care Licensing.
We are a dynamic team of educators, offering 1:1 tutoring in all subject areas for grades Pre-K through 12.
We support students based on their individual academic needs and cater instruction to their learning style. Our tutors teach with motivation by building confidence to achieve success both in and outside of school. We offer Pre-K/Kinder readiness: a fun, interactive head start, teaching the basic concepts for kindergarten success.

Scotts Valley’s Independent Study Program
MCP Offers a college preparatory education for students who learn differently. Students in our program build independence, flexibility and academic power. They learn to advocate for themselves, to understand their strengths, to know how they learn best, and to use tools, technologies and systems that best support their learning. Our students will define success for themselves. They will increase their self-awareness and self-esteem, understand their strengths and challenges, and to achieve their personal definition of success.Our students will define success for themselves.
