History
The Quarry Lane School was founded in 1991 by Dr. Sabri Arac as an infant/toddler preschool. It added an elementary school at its original Pleasanton, California campus. In 2000, Arac opened a campus in Dublin, California to accommodate the elementary school. The Pleasanton campus served only preschoolers.

A fourth campus, the Dublin West campus, was opened in fall 2022.
