Mission Statement
In order to teach the whole child, we recognize that the emotional, social, physical and intellectual needs must be met in a safe, challenging, creative and loving environment. Self esteem, competence, and leadership are developed by building success upon success with reassurance and support.
It is, therefore, our mission to provide our students with a solid foundation in the academics, extra-curricular enrichment, and opportunities for involvement in a student-centered creative program.

The challenging curriculum at The Palm Desert Learning Tree Center prepares students for academic and personal success at a selective private, public middle or junior high school. Our scholastic standards are high. Stimulating intellectual work is required in every class, guided by dynamic and creative teachers. Our medium-sized classes, with a maximum of 20 students per one teacher, ensure consistent and positive interaction between teachers and students and help to maximize student performance and participation. Our goal is to develop independent students who can handle the responsibility of academic work based on solid direction - thereby increasing confidence in the classroom.
We encourage students to reach beyond their known abilities. Though we don't push them, we strongly and positively present many situations for success. Our curriculum provides solid grounding in language arts and phonics, mathematics, reading, handwriting, spelling, social studies, science and other disciplines that equip students to meet the demanding changes of middle school education. The Palm Desert Learning Tree Center students are top students at whatever school they attend.

Student tutorial programs are available through our staff and outside teachers for those students needing assistance in certain areas. Study Hall has been established four days a week to assist during the after school hours with homework, extra credit or quiet reading.
It is our hope to nurture your child's natural curiosity while laying a strong foundation for learning skills yet to come. Let your child enjoy our preschool and elementary programs and encourage him or her to share with you the activities of the day.
