Aldea Verde Pre-School is a nature-inspired Spanish immersion preschool serving toddlers through kindergarten at 903 Royal Lane in the established Cedar Park neighborhood, with after-care available for school-age children. Since 2012, the center has earned a 4.6 Google rating from 25+ parent reviews praising its warm, welcoming teachers and environment where 'kids can truly be kids,' backed by a clean HHSC inspection record with zero high deficiencies. The curriculum draws from Montessori, Decroly, HighScope, and Waldorf philosophies, blending structured learning with exploration-based play and the cultural foundation of Spanish language immersion. However, the center does not offer an infant program, does not accept child care subsidies, and closes at 5:30 PM, limiting accessibility for families needing early infant care or evening hours.
