Atascadero Cooperative Preschool is an absolutely amazing place. This school not only welcomes…read moreparent participation, but actively encourages and requires it. Kids are allowed to be kids here, and learn through play. One of the most important things to take away from this is that this is a school, and not a day care. Your child will be stimulated, and will have great stories to tell at the end of each school day, whether it's about one of the pets in the classroom, or one of the field trips they go on.

It is nice community to be a part of. The outdoor space is amazing and our daughter feels so free running around and "adventuring." I feel they do a nice job following Montessori principles (which differ from traditional public school methods) and that was a priority for us. She learns so much and truly enjoys being in school. We are planning to keep her here through sixth grade because it's such a great place!

We have done several Mobile Vaccine Clinics here so far, in various larger areas of this school. We have been in the Gym, The Library, & a common room. All areas are impressively nice for such a small, but lovely rural town. We have had clinics here that have a turn out of over 135 people & have exceed 106 degrees at times. Thank heavens for the good AC in the modern Gym! The staff and community there are quite lovely and we always have a volunteer group of Spanish & Mixteco translators to help us. The school complex itself is kind of hidden & nowhere near the main street nor freeway, so unless you know where to go, you can get slightly lost in this mainly Mexican/ Indigenous little town. Out of the many dozens of places that I have volunteered for the Medical Reserve Corp, this is one of my favorites. People really appreciate you at most places, but especially here & other places near Paso, such as in Vineyards, Shandon, & so on. Of course, if you are in this town, you are more likely to be here for the mission, which for some reason, I have passed by a dozen times but I was on my own mission to save lives. While there are a few places in town for food or even alcohol, I am usually quite exhausted after doing a Mobile Clinic. I answer questions, help with logistics, & of course administer vaccines. Lately we have added doing boosters & some Flu shots. Now that we have the newer VOC called Omicron, it is quite likely that we are going to turbo-charging our efforts all over again. I am sure that this lovely school & community will welcome us again & again as needed. Thanks!

Local Mobile Vaccine Clinic Site Review: Just the other week, this School joined a few dozen…read moreothers in our county in allowing us to set up a one day Mobile Vaccine Clinic in this underserved area, which is quite a long drive from the City of Paso Robles itself. It is in a quiet, rather remote area, right next to Lake Nacimiento. Lake Nacimiento as of recently only had about 15% of its capacity, so I did not check it out on this trip. While I knew about the lake, I had no idea about this quiet community of a few thousand, let alone a school, and a small shopping center just across the street that has a large supermarket [Oak Hills]. In any case, we arrived shortly before the young kiddos left school and people interested in getting vaccinated started to arrive. We set up right outside the entrance and things went really well. Quite a few people did have special needs or lacked transport to Paso itself, since there was no pharmacy in this town. The school staff that we interacted with were quite nice and it was great that they thought of helping their community with this effort. After finishing up, I did drive just across the street to check out the mini-mall and supermarket. Maybe next time I am in town I will check out the Lake itself, but we typically run late so that we can offer people services after work hours, so at this time of year, it starts to get dark early. One of the interesting aspects of being a Medical Reserve Corp volunteer doing Mobile Clinics is that we literately go almost everywhere in this huge county and meet all kinds of interesting people. Of course, the absolute best thing, is that we are saving lives and preventing suffering & disease. Again, if it was not for places like this quiet school, many people who cannot get to relatively few Pharmacies nor the few Public Health Clinics with the full range of vaccines [or any vaccines at all], would continue to go unserved and unvaccinated. We also have the time, knowledge, experience, and patience to help people understand why vaccines are safe & effective, while also dealing with people's fears & needlephobia. Thanks to Cappy Culver we helped people in this out of the way community.
