About this preschool

Community Bridges Early Education Division operates six nurturing centers across Santa Cruz County providing affordable early education with bilingual curriculum. The Sycamore Street Center in Santa Cruz serves children with play-based, developmentally appropriate programming.

Philosophy
Through positive guidance and dynamic bilingual curriculum, we create a foundation for children's healthy development and school readiness, fostering a love of learning, literacy and numeracy skills, social and emotional development, curiosity, exploration and creativity, cooperation and collaboration, problem-solving skills, and respect for self, family, community and the environment. Teachers serve as guides and companions rather than controllers of behavior.
