PASADENA-A miracle happens every Monday through Friday on Sinaloa
Avenue in the City of Pasadena. The miracle happens in a small but
sturdy building, tucked between a tree-lined street and a bustling
Washington Boulevard. There, in this special building, a band of
remarkable teachers are driven by love and fueled by educational
excellence to teach a new generation of Armenian American children.
This special place on earth has a name, Levon and Hasmig Tavlian
Armenian Pre-School and kindergarten.
For twenty years the Tavlian Armenian Pre-School has had a singular
goal. That goal has been and remains to this day, to send healthy and
happy children with high self-esteem and self-confidence to the first
grade, ready to absorb anything taught to them. By all accounts, the
school has achieved this worthy goal and more since its doors opened
in 1992. Hundreds of bright, articulate, and thoughtful children can be
counted among the school's alumni, along with their very proud parents.
The miracle of the Tavlian Armenian Pre-School started like most
remarkable things - it started small. In the Fall of 1992 a grand
total of four children enrolled at the school - in what would be
the first generation of children to experience the warmth and love
of a school that has become a shining standard of excellence when
discussing any pre-school in the San Gabriel Valley.
"This year we will be marking the 20th anniversary of the Tavlian
Armenian Pre-School by praising those, past and present, who built
this school into the proud institution it is today," remarked Souzi
Zerounian-Khanzadian, who is serving as the chair of the Tavlian
20th anniversary committee. "We will be reaching out to our entire
community to tell the wonderful story of our school and why this
special pre-school deserves their full and generous support," added
the committee chair.
Among the many positive characteristics of the Tavlian Armenian
Pre-School is the fact that it is accredited by The National
Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). For
knowledgeable parents, the NAEYC Accreditation has become the mark
of quality, helping parents find the best possible early childhood
experience. Tavlian received its accreditation from NAEYC in 2009,
has gone through the re-evaluation process this year and has granted
this class-worthy recognition through June 31, 2014.
On May 4, 2012 a broad and diverse number of dedicated Armenian
Americans will gather at a celebratory banquet to mark the 20th
anniversary of the Tavlian Armenian Pre-School. The banquet will be
held at Armenian Society of Los Angeles Additional information on
the banquet may be secured by contacting the school office by phone
at 626-398-8199.
Background on the Tavlian Armenian Pre-School, which has served our
community with distinction for over two decades, may be found at the
school's user-friendly website: www.tavlianpreschool.org.
