"Tell me, I forget. Show me, I remember. Involve me, I understand."

The Pine Village philosophy of education is, in part, one of diversity and acceptance. With this in mind we welcome ALL families to be a part of our PVP family. We support families who have adopted children from all over the World, we support families with one mommy and/or one daddy, extended families, two mommies or two daddies, working parents and non-working parents…. We embrace our teachers who come from all over the world, with varied traditions and customs. We advocate diversity through our belief that differences in people are a beautiful thing, and that if the seed of acceptance and inclusion is planted in children in these early years, this world we live in has a greater chance of unity, peace and acceptance.

Pine Village is participating in the PRIDE Parade on June 10, not only in support of our gay and lesbian families, but as a show of unity and support for this multi-cultural, multi-lingual, diverse world in which we live. We would love for our families to join us in this march. However, with that same understanding we know that not everyone will be able to share this with us. Understand and believe in yourselves and know that there is a place for everyone in our family.
