TEPs : Preschool History

Trinity Preschool began as a nursery school in 1950 with the affectionate name of TENS by which it is still called today. Virginia Jennings was the founder and first director. In 1951 Floris Crosthwaite became the director, and it was she who purchased all the nursery school’s equipment. By 1955 the school was under the care of Ms. Crosthwaite’s daughter, Floris Ethel, who maintained the school’s tradition until her mother’s return in 1957. Ms. Crosthwaite guided the program for fifteen more years.

In 1972 till June 2017, Beverly Gaston was director. Ms Gaston had the distinction of being the longest serving director of an Episcopal school in Los Angeles Diocese.

The school 2017-18 has Preschool status and is licensed under the laws of the state of California with the Episcopal Schools Commission of Southern California serving as oversight.
