Mission
The mission of the Grossmont Child Development Center is to provide
quality care to children in a healthy, safe, and nurturing environment.
We
provide the chance for teen parents to graduate from the Grossmont
Union High School District and prepare for employment and/or post
secondary education.
Philosophy
The Grossmont Union High School District Child Development program was
established as a service to families and children of our community. The
philosophy of the Infant/Toddler Programs is based on the belief that
each student and child is a worthy individual endowed with certain
unique capacities and talents.
We, at the Child Development Center,
provide a safe and fun environment in which learning is encouraged
through play. Our classrooms are warm and loving with a well trained
staff that encourages the progress of each child at their own pace. We
provide a creative surrounding that stimulates each child’s development
through physical, social, emotional and intellectual activities. Our
belief is that the relationship between child and parent is a vital part
of their development. We provide necessary resources for parents to
strengthen this bond. The staff of the Child Development Center is the
heart and soul of our philosophy.
