The Child Development Department at SRJC believes that children learn best in a nurturing environment where they are allowed to make choices. Our curriculum framework emphasizes the belief that children grow and develop optimally through play. Curriculum is designed to meet the characteristics of both their developmental stage and their own unique background. Our department’s goal is to educate a diverse population of students in the application of this framework, based on a thorough understanding of child growth and development, as well as relevant cultural issues.
