In collaboration with Ventura College and the Ventura County Community College District, FUSD will fund Ventura College to provide the two initial qualifying courses for fifteen child care assistants who plan to work in accredited institutions in a 32-hour per week intensive program beginning July 18th through August 4th, 2016.

The classes will be taught by Ventura College instructors at the Fillmore Adult School located on the Sierra High School campus. Students who successfully complete the program will earn six units of Early Childhood Education credit, which makes them eligible to work as Preschool Instructional Assistants. To qualify for the training, students must possess high school diplomas and be proficient in English.

FUSD will be starting six full-day preschool classes for 2016-2017 school year. Child Care Assistants will be needed for this preschool program.
