Welcome Our State Preschools are funded through the California State Department of Education, Child Development Division and are administered by the Mendocino County Office of Education, Child Development Services (MCOE). Our Mission We believe that a high quality early childhood program provides a safe and nurturing environment that promotes the physical, social, emotional, cognitive and creative development of young children while responding to the needs of families and our community. We maintain an open-door policy where parents have the right to enter the preschool classroom at any time during operating hours. Our Program To ensure a high quality program, we offer a well-planned, developmentally, linguistically and culturally appropriate curriculum based on individual needs of children. We recognize the importance of the classroom as a Learning Community, where all are included and valued. Our program provides information to local services and organizations as well as solicits goods and services from local businesses. Supporting young children in the preschool environment includes accepting and being responsive to differing abilities and interests. Several preschool sites are full inclusion sites. These sites provide appropriate services where children with disabilities co-exist with their typically developing peers. The MCOE State Preschool Consortium classrooms refrain from religious instruction or worship. Preschool Locations and Phone Numbers Arena State Preschool P.O.
