Preschool

  • The Fullerton School District's Preschool Program is implemented at 10 locations. Eight classrooms are funded by state and local sources, while the remaining two are supported through parent-paid tuition. The California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division regulates all our preschools, which must comply with Title 22 Health and Safety Regulations.


    We have implemented various service models to address the community's diverse needs. We offer part-day programs, including AM session only, AM/PM sessions, Co-Teaching, and Integrated Inclusive options. Additionally, two locations offer the Full Day/Full Year Preschool Program and two Tuition-Based Programs.


    The Preschool Program complies with Title 5 regulations, which require a 1:8 ratio with one teacher and two instructional aides. Each session of the part-day preschool program sustains a maximum enrollment of 24 children, ensuring an adult-to-child ratio of 1 to 8. Simultaneously, the Full-Day/Full-Year preschool program maintains a capacity of 24 children per classroom.
