K. Anthony's Pre-School was founded in 1969 and named after Keith Anthony, son of Mrs. Margaret Johnson and the late Mr. Brady Johnson.
Mr. & Mrs. Johnson recognized the need for a caring educational facility within the community and purchased an old fire station located at 8708 Crenshaw Blvd. After a few months of hard work, the doors to the first six enrollees were opened, and before long, the school's enrollment was at full capacity. The school expanded in 1975, when an old nightclub building was purchased and converted into K-Anthony's Elementary School.
Mr. Brady Johnson passed away in 2015, and the elementary school was sold in 2022. However, K-Anthony's Preschool continues to nurture and mold the minds of our youngest learners. Mr. Brady Johnson left his wife, Margaret, a legacy that continues the pursuit of excellence for students and families within and surrounding the city of Inglewood.

Vision
We believe in providing children with a nurturing and stimulating environment that fosters their natural curiosity and love of learning. Our motto states, "Just as the twig is bent, so grows the tree". This was chosen because it metaphorically suggests that the child's mind is like a sapling that requires patient and constant nurturing
We believe in providing children with a nurturing and stimulating environment that fosters their natural curiosity and love of learning. Our motto states, "Just as the twig is bent, so grows the tree". This was chosen because it metaphorically suggests that the child's mind is like a sapling that requires patient and constant nurturing for its proper growth.
We envision a program that fosters children's morale, cultivating a desire to develop personal and social values, and enabling them to understand, participate in, and take responsibility for their community and environment. With these developments, they will be able to manage their own strengths and weaknesses. We envision a school environment where students' experiences are positive, joyful, creative, and equitable.
