Comments and Other Information

The Office of Child Development offers the highest level of safe and educational learning environments for children from preschool to fifth grade. Unlike other learning centers, the Office of Child Development is staffed by credentialed educators who use a multitude of instructional strategies to respond to students' diverse needs.

These educators also know that having fun can be one of the best educational tools, so they strive to create learning opportunities that are both enjoyable and informative. What sets us apart is the ability to offer parents a learning environment for their child that is staffed by teachers who retain credentials from the Child Development division of the California Department of Education. This credential authorizes the teaching of young children, but more importantly it ensures superlative support services during this critical stage in a child's life.

Accompanied by aides, these trained and experienced educators are skilled in the art of engaging and facilitating students with varied learning styles. Furthermore, all educators are required to participate in a continuous program of professional and academic advancement, including, but not limited to, in-services, college courses, and active involvement in state and national organizations. Culver City Unified School District is committed to centering diversity, equity, and inclusion, not only in our educational practices - but as a fundamental key to our hiring processes.

Successful candidates will demonstrate an ability to work with all constituents and possess proven commitment to and experience in working in a diverse, multicultural environment. The Culver City Unified School District supports and adheres to a policy of nondiscrimination on the basis of race, color, ethnic group identification, national origin, ancestry, religion, age, marital or parental status, pregnancy, physical or mental disability, medical condition, veteran status, genetic information, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sex, sexual orientation or the perception of one or more of such characteristics.
