Child Development Center

The Child Development Center of Garden Grove Unified School District (GGUSD) is designed to create the foundation for brighter futures for parenting and expecting students and their children. By offering a comprehensive academic and support program, students acquire the knowledge, skills, and behaviors to become successful parents and self-sufficient adults. Child Development Center faculty and staff are committed to assisting parents with the challenges they may encounter. In addition to promoting self-reliance and responsibility, we seek to nurture feelings of confidence and self-worth. Through this program students are able to earn a high school diploma and at the same time acquire vital parenting skills while their sons and daughters are cared for by a professional nursery staff.

WHAT IS IT?

The Child Development Center Program is for expectant and parenting high school age students who want to continue earning credits toward a high school diploma. Students are enrolled at Hare High School where they enter a rigorous academic program while at the same time their child is cared for by the Child Development Center's expert nursery teachers and staff.  The developmental child care center helps strengthen the bond between student parent and child while teaching parenting skills.

WHY IS IT UNIQUE?

The Child Development Center program is designed for high school students who want to earn a high school diploma while learning about pregnancy, childbirth, and child development.
