Welcome to the Child Development Department!

Our district’s first goal is “Readiness for Kindergarten”.  In order to help achieve this goal, the SCUSD Child Development Department offers free or subsidized full day child care and free part day preschool programs for income eligible families.  These programs provide appropriate learning experiences and comprehensive student support services for preschoolers to ensure their smooth transition into kindergarten.  Some of the options available are:

• Part day preschool programs for income eligible families

• Free and/or subsidized child care programs for income eligible families

Our department also provides the following services to our families:

• Fee based school-age child care programs

• A limited number of spaces for infant and toddler child care services given to teen students.
