One family. Two schools. Nearly 30 years of learning.
Founded in 1997, Happy Faces Pre-School has spent almost three decades shaping confident, bilingual learners. In 2020 we opened Cumbres School to carry that same philosophy through 6th grade — small classes and individualized attention, from age one onward.
A home for learning that respects the rhythm of childhood.
Happy Faces opened its doors in 1997 with a simple belief: that sensory exploration and creative play are the foundations of lifelong learning. For almost 30 years, we've cared for children ages 1 through 5 with the attention they deserve.
In 2020, we founded Cumbres School so families didn't have to leave that philosophy behind at Kinder. Cumbres carries the same values — small groups, individualized attention, bilingual fluency — through 6th grade.
We keep our classes deliberately small so teachers can plan around each child, and we pair USA curriculum standards with Honduran academic requirements so students are prepared for the world without losing their roots.
"We focus on individual children's needs."
That commitment shapes every decision — from class size, to teacher training, to the way we design our classrooms.
