The Child Development Center of the Manhattan Beach Unified School District is more commonly referred to as the Manhattan Beach Preschool. Tucked into a mostly residential area of Manhattan Beach just off Manhattan Beach Boulevard, the preschool is relatively secluded. The school offers multiple scheduling options, including 5-day, 3-day and 2-day school schedules, for kids aged 2 to 5. At Manhattan Beach Preschool, daily activities are planned and implemented according to the individual interests and needs of the child. The school integrates play and hands-on experience, as well as the use of developmentally appropriate materials and interactions. The staff is screened through the Manhattan Beach School District.
