California Consulting is pleased to highlight the Keppel Union Elementary School District for receiving the California State Preschool Program in the amount of $1,386,394.
The District's mission is to Seek Education, Strive for Excellence, and Aspire to Greatness. In order to support this mission, the District's vision is to provide and maintain a positive environment where children acquire the basic reasoning skills to be successful learners and productive contributing citizens.
This project will allow the District to expand their preschools and to continue their existing programs and expand to more programs that are inclusive of Special Education students. The two existing Preschool programs (Antelope and Lake Los Angeles), opened for the first time in April of 2018 and will continue in the 2019-2020 school year.
Although Antelope school has an existing program, there is a need to expand the program to double the capacity since they already are at full capacity of 48 students with a waiting list of more than 20 students. Furthermore, they plan to also begin three other new preschool programs, one at Pearblossom Elementary and two programs at Alpine Elementary; one to service Mild to Moderate students and one to service Moderate to Severe students. The last two programs will focus on supporting students who may need more adult support, supervision, and services tailored to meet their individual needs.
California Consulting's Senior Project Manager, Danielle Sotelo, ensured a successful application.
Many congratulations to Keppel Union Elementary School District!
