	Our school was founded in 1989 with a mission to serve the community with affordable and high quality learning environment to foster children's physical, emotional, social and mental growth. Serving children from ages two to six, we have witnessed many of our children start at our school with potty-training to successfully completing kindergarten and becoming honor roll students and leaders of their community. Over the course of over 20 years, many of our children come back to visit our school to thank the wonderful staff for their dedication and guidance.
Our philosophy is based upon our belief that children move through stages of development based on their knowledge and experiences. Children＊s cognitive, linguistic, physical and social-emotional learning occurs through their interactions with adults and peers and through the use of challenging materials. We believe that children must have a positive self-concept to become competent learners. The program does not discriminate on the basis of sex, sexual orientation, gender, ethnic group identification, race, ancestry, national origin, religion, color, or mental or physical disability in determining which children are served. As defined by Maslow＊s hierarchy of needs, we also believe that children＊s basic needs must be met. As such, we serve federally approved nutritious meals with the major food components. Freshly prepared onsite at our center at no extra charge, children staying throughout the day may receive up to four meals, including breakfast, lunch, snack, and supper.
We are licensed by the State of California, Department of Social Services. In addition, our teachers exceed licensing standards and possess Early Childhood college degrees with years of experience. Staff members are First Aid and CPR certified and have additional healthy and safety training. Our school complies with all State and Federal Licensing standards. Each year we undergo reviews for educational goals and assessments, nutrition, fire safety, health and safety, etc. Staff members also have criminal background clearances and are periodically checked by the department to ensure background clearance. Following both Title 22 and Title 5 guidelines, our staff take great care and pride in teaching and caring for the children.
