Established in
1981, Diablo Hills Country School is a family venture
that provides safe, educational experiences that last a
lifetime. Our student to teacher ratios are consistently
lower than mandated by the state in order to best
develop each child, unlike many high volume commercial
day care center competitors. Our facilities were built
with smaller classrooms
in order to provide a warm, home like learning center.
Our curriculum is a developmentally structured program
that supports the goals of the San Ramon Valley Unified
School District and prepares the children for
Kindergarten while having fun. Our goal is for the
children to develop a positive self image while honoring
each family's unique cultural situation. We are fully
licensed by the State of California Department of Social
Services and are currently undergoing the NAEYC process
in order to obtain NAEYC accreditation. Over the years,
Diablo Hills Country School has won many awards, which
include, but are not limited to, PACE Child Care Center
of the Year in 2006. |
