About this preschool

Tustin Unified School District's Kindergarten Readiness Program is an early learning/preschool program that operates 10 months per year, five days a week, and focuses on developmentally appropriate activities to prepare children for kindergarten. The program offers free state-subsidized half-day classes at multiple elementary school campuses, as well as fee-based half-day and full-day options for families not meeting income guidelines.

Philosophy
To provide developmentally appropriate activities to enhance each child's intellectual, language, social-emotional, academic, and physical development and to prepare children to enter kindergarten with the skills needed to be successful. Classes strive to provide each child with a program that is developmentally, linguistically and culturally appropriate, while giving them the academic skills they need to be successful in kindergarten.
