childcarepreschoolsubsidizedstate-preschool
LEUSD Earl Warren Preschool is a California Department of Social Services-licensed state preschool center serving northeast Lake Elsinore's growing residential communities at 41221 Rosetta Canyon Rd. Since 2008, the center has operated a 24-child program offering both part-day (3 hours) and full-day (6–10.5 hours) preschool with a play-based curriculum aligned to California Preschool Learning Foundations, supported by the Learning Genie app for parent-teacher communication. Income-based enrollment through the California State Preschool Program prioritizes families with the greatest need and includes automatic qualification for CalFresh/CalWorks/SNAP recipients; families contacted the center at (951) 253-7810 for enrollment details and fee schedules. The center's most recent CCLD inspection in December 2025 confirmed active compliance, and participation in the Quality Start rating system reflects engagement with state quality standards. Public reviews are unavailable for independent verification of parent experience, and the school-year calendar (175 days/year) means this site does not offer a summer program.
