Our goal is to establish relationships with families so that students are prepared for the journey ahead. Parenting can be very challenging – we know. Our hope is that Cornerstone can help you navigate the schools – and life, and find community resources to make it a little easier.

The foundation of our program is our staff. DeeDee, Jacey, and Cecilia provide a safe and welcoming environment for Chehalis families.

Come visit us at 2057 Southwest Salsbury Avenue (the Olympic school building)

Drop-ins are welcomed until noon each day school is in session. Contact us to make an afternoon appointment.
