About this preschool

LBUSD Willard Child Development Center is a fee-based and subsidized preschool program operated by Lakewood Unified School District. The program builds an educational foundation for children in an atmosphere that fosters self-esteem and emphasizes developmentally appropriate, child-centered activities.

Philosophy
Children learn best in an atmosphere that fosters self-esteem and confidence. Classrooms are reflective of thoughtful observation and intentional planning. Developmentally and age appropriate child centered activities are designed around language/vocabulary, skills and interest levels that integrate social-emotional, cognitive, physical abilities, healthy well-being, and home and school. A partnership is established between the program, home and community. Each child's culture and language is respected to enhance the child's self-esteem.
