Discovery Christian Preschool is a CCLD-licensed center-based provider at 246 S Grand Ave in Covina serving children ages 2–5 with a Christ-centered curriculum emphasizing academic, social/emotional, and spiritual development. Operating Monday–Friday, 7:45 am–5:30 pm, the mid-sized program with 37 children capacity prioritizes small class sizes with experienced, certified staff and includes daily snacks and potty learning assistance within tuition ranging $350–$940 monthly. Located near the Charter Oak community, it serves a relatively underserved ZIP code for licensed private childcare. The faith-based approach is central to daily activities, which is ideal for faith-focused families but may not suit those seeking a secular program; prospective families should plan an in-person tour given the center's shorter operational history.
