Recognizing that ECDC provides high quality preschool and child care. CUSD currently offers two preschool programs. Silver Strand Elementary offers a State Preschool Program which serves approximately 24 students and is based on family size, income and a child’s age. Crown Preschool, located at the Early Childhood Development Center (ECDC) of Village Elementary School, is a tuition-based preschool eligible to children 3 and 4 years of age. Preschool-age children with special needs are included in the Crown Preschool classes. CUSD Preschool Programs have the philosophy that each child is unique and capable. We strive to provide programs which foster creativity and encourage curiosity and love of learning. Our programs allow for optimum growth and development for student success in the following areas: social-emotional growth, cognitive and academic growth aligned to K-12 Common Core State Standards, language development and foundations, physical growth, self-help/hygiene, and fine motor growth.
Because both programs fulfill the original vision for the Coronado Unified School District to provide a complete education continuum as a lifelong foundation for our community’s children, we recognize the need to be fiscally viable to ensure the longevity of programs and operations.
Staff have conducted market research to determine fair and comparable rates commensurate with the level of services provided.
