Set up your child for future success in school

Children in preschool learn the skills that are crucial for academic success. Give them the foundation of age-appropriate early math, language, literacy, and science inquiry, as well as social-emotional development.

We are a high-quality, award-winning, early education program

* California School Boards Association (CSBA) Golden Bell Recipient
* Platinum Level/Top-Tier Quality Rating and Improvement System (QRIS) Rating
* High-quality Inclusion Endorsement from the Santa Clara County Office of Education’s Inclusion Collaborative and 2019 Inclusion Collaborative’s Inclusion Team/Teacher of the Year

The MVWSD is committed to providing quality early education because we understand the importance of early brain development and its impact on future learning and success.  We are a proud participant in Quality Matters and the QRIS, and all of our preschool sites are independently rated at the highest levels.  The MVWSD Preschool Program is also the recipient of the 2018 California School Boards Association's Golden Bell Award in Early Childhood Education and Inclusion Endorsements from Santa Clara County's Inclusion Collaborative. 

We use a developmentally appropriate curriculum that supports kindergarten readiness and is aligned with the California Department of Education's Preschool Transitional Kindergarten Learning Foundations (PTKLF). Our classroom and office staff work diligently with our students and their families to build a strong foundation that will last a lifetime. Any family living in Mountain View with an age-eligible child is invited to apply for preschool services.
