Early childhood education has proven to be effective in helping children get off to a good start in school. The WJUSD Child Development Program helps children learn by providing them a print-rich environment filled with books and by exposing them to activities that involve their five senses. We have a warm, friendly environment where our children feel safe, secure and appreciated.

The WJUSD Child Development Department administers various comprehensive programs which are primarily funded through the California Department of Education. These programs provide educational services to income eligible children and their families, teen parents, and to full paying families where applicable.
