About Sossaman Early Childhood Development Center
Higley Unified School District is proud to offer quality early learning programs in our state-of-the-art Early Childhood Development Centers on the campuses of Cooley and Sossaman Middle Schools, which opened in 2013.
Both Centers offer three Early Childhood programs to fit the interests and schedules of all families. Brilliant Beginnings is available for children ages 3-4. We will also offer a Kindergarten Prep program for children ages 4-5 and our Special Education Preschool program.
Classes are taught by certified early childhood educators.

We empower students to be responsible citizens with the knowledge, skills, and work ethic required for success in their future endeavors.
