C.L.O.U.D.S. Preschool
Etiwanda School DistrictProgram Philosophy
The Etiwanda Preschool Program (C.L.O.U.D.S.) is an important building block for each student’s successful journey through school. Optimum growth for a child evolves from positive, supportive, responsive, and individualized instruction and relationships with adults and peers including parent support throughout learning. Self-esteem, social skills, and intellectual development blossom in an inclusive environment using developmentally appropriate activities that guide students to be actively involved in exploration, discovery and play. Guidance techniques must be positive and accompanied by rational explanations of expectations. Our preschool staff is trained in early childhood growth and development and skilled at teaching young students the skills they will need as they transition to kindergarten and beyond. The Etiwanda Preschool Program (C.L.O.U.D.S.) believes in the dignity of each individual, student and adult, and the provision of a safe, healthful, and comfortable learning environment.
