The Red Apple Preschool
The Red Apple Preschool in Lake Forest is dedicated to helping make a positive difference in your child's education. Our program maintains a focus on the development of the whole child as we aim to build and increase your child's social, emotional, physical, and cognitive skills in a safe and nurturing school environment.

We have had our daughter at Red Apple for only a few weeks, but she adjusted to the teachers, new friends and other aspects of the school environment in no time at all. The adults are caring, well educated and sincere in their mission to provide a wonderful environment for learning and play. We are most concerned that our child is physically and emotionally safe in our absence, and that is absolutely the case.
Services
Many of our classes fill up quickly, currently we offer both early bird morning and late bird afternoon classes. Our late bird afternoon class is discounted for the budget conscious families. Potential students are always welcome to visit the school during school hours. Please contact us at (949) 460-9221 to arrange a time to visit The Red Apple Preschool and meet the teachers.
At The Red Apple Preschool our main focus and success is dependent on making sure your child is receiving a strong foundation they can build their future on. Our Preschool provides exceptional staff and a comfortable environment that prepares your child for kindergarten. We have created a school that promotes a family atmosphere which allows them to build strong trusting relationships with their friends and teachers.

Red Apple Preschool is great. My daughter has been going for several months now and already learned so much; she proves that to us when she comes home reciting new things. The staff is also very friendly and I find comfort knowing she's in good hands.

My nephew, Brandon came to join our family in Lake Forest in May from Shanghai, China. He is five years old. The second week he got here, I took him with me to visit a few preschools in the area. When we walked into Red Apple Preschool, we both knew we found the right school. The staff is very warm and supportive of his language needs. Brandon loves the school and his teacher, Ms. Lisa. He wants to go there early in the morning and often doesn't want to leave in the afternoon. It is comforting to know that he is thriving in his new environment. He went from not speaking a word of English to be

My two-year-old son started at Red Apple Preschool four months ago. In just this short time, the staff there has already become like family. It is such a warm environment that fosters good learning and good friendships between the children. My son is a little shy and they were very patient as he transitioned in to his first school/day care experience. I especially like how available the directors are. I email and get nearly immediate responses. I strongly recommend Red Apple to anyone who wants their child in a fun, safe and creative environment.

We love the Red Apple Preschool! A preschool is your little one's first introduction to the world of education and if you're lucky it will be the beginnings of their independence. Our son has been attending Red Apple for over six months and we cannot say enough about what a safe and stimulating environment they provide for him. What we love most about Red Apple is EVERYTHING! Their program consistently stimulates learning and supports all aspects of your child's development. The teachers and staff are sincerely invested in our son and have taken the time to learn about him, there is a sense of

My wife and I changed my sons preschool this past September. The decision was a hard one. We felt like our son was in a more playful environment rather then one focused more on age appropriate learning with his other school. Ever since he has been attending the Red Apple Preschool he now comes home talking about the different seasons in English/Spanish, uses word rhymes and talks to us about why penguins can't fly. He also spells his name (which he found uninteresting prior to attending The Red Apple) and has started to spell short words using phonics. Our sons academic improvement at the Red Apple

Maryam the director and her staff at Red Apple preschool are the BEST! This place is everything you could ask for in a pre-school: friendly, organized staff, experienced teachers, clean facility, beautiful and safe play area. My daughter who is 3 loved it from first day. She likes to spend time with Miss Angie , Miss Lisa and Mr. Amir. Since going to Red Apple preschool, my daughter is progressively learning new things everyday. They helped me to potty train my daughter in less than 2 weeks time. It has been a 2nd home for my children. I know she is safe and cared for.

My daughter has been attending this school since she was 2, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. The school itself is a clean and cheery environment. I personally love all of the adorable art projects displayed about too! The staff is very friendly and well informed. My daughter loves spending time with Miss Kelly and now Miss Lisa. Both teachers are very warm and patient.
My daughter has learned a tremendous amount of new things despite the fact that I'm a doting stay at home mom who has taught her a lot myself, I'm am amazed by the continuous knowledge of concepts she has acquired

I have a very shy 4 year old little girl who absolutely loves going to school at The Red Apple Preschool. I thought it would take us weeks to get her comfortable enough to allow me to leave without her crying, but she was fine on the second day. It was shocking, but I see now why she loves it. The teachers are passionate about teaching and making it a safe and fun environment for the kids. I'm confident that my little girl is receiving the best care and education. She is always looking forward to going to school. And I'm happy about that. We are happy that we made the right decision and choose

I currently live in Montclair and commute to Irvine daily. I'm looking to move out to South Orange Couty and started searching for schools in the area for my 4 and 6 year olds. In my search I ran accross The Red Apple Preschool and attended the open house. The school is very welcoming and offers a secure comfortable enviroment for all the children. The Administrator was great. She had a great deal of experience and most importantly a natural abililty to connect with the kids. My daugher immediately fell in love with the school and the staff. She was pretty upset when we had to leave. She often

Amazing instructors! Very nice facilities! No better way to start your child's education!!!
In a family like mine (multiple master degrees, engineering degrees, valedictorians) education gets the highest priority. We are very very picky about where we send our children and the type of experience they have. The Red Apple Preschool has exceeded all our expectations. They are a new school, but unlike many schools they are not people just trying to hold on to a teaching job. Rather they are instructors filled with passion for education and children. They have a mission to drastically improve education
