The academic and social benefits of music and science education are proven to provide more than just learning how to sing a song, or complete an experiment. Learning music helps with math and spatial learning, and can build confidence. Science creates curiosity and helps us learn how to solve problems. It's a tragedy that state funding was cut for the arts and sciences years ago. PEF is necessary to bring these important skill sets to the children.

Vallemar School
Kate Riegler (cantonova@gmail.com )
Our family moved to Pacifica in 2023. Since our oldest daughter started attending Vallemar last year, I've been looking to contribute more to the PTO goals and to strengthening connections between families, educators, and the community.
As a PEF Ambassador, I’m excited to help share PEF’s mission, encourage family involvement, and advocate for opportunities that help every student thrive.
