Child Development

Welcome to the Saugus Union School District Child Development Programs (CDP). Our goal is to serve parents who need before- and after-school child care for their elementary school students and/or preschool for their three- and four-year-old children. We are dedicated to providing an enriching, safe, and nurturing environment and to helping all children feel successful.

Our Mission

The SUSD Child Development Programs CARE for children and families through innovative programs that extend transitional kindergarten through sixth-grade learning and incorporate fun and PRIDE—Passion, Respect, Integrity, Dedication, and Excellence.

Please find additional information and registration options on our Eleyo page.

SUSD Collaborative Preschool Registration Information

We are extremely excited to be sharing with our community that the Saugus Union School District will be opening a fee-based collaborative preschool at Bouquet Canyon Early Learning Academy this January 2024.

Our two Collaborative Preschool Programs encourage active, playful exploration and experimentation. With play as an integral part of the curriculum, Bouquet Canyon Early Learning Academy uses purposeful teaching to ensure children gain knowledge and skills in a place where all children are individually assisted to move along a pathway of healthy learning and development. Our collaborative classrooms are staffed by an early childhood preschool teacher, early childhood special education teacher, and paraprofessionals. Tuition is charged for all school service days and a $50.00 registration fee is applied upon contract approval.

Location: 28110 Wellston Dr., Saugus, CA 91350, 661-294-5360
