The Manhattan Beach Preschool is the only public preschool in Manhattan Beach. It is part of the Manhattan Beach Unified School District, and it enrolls children ages 2 through 5.

The MB Preschool program is designed to prepare students for the challenges of MBUSD’s school-aged programs. The preschool's experienced and credentialed staff have created a learning environment that encourages children to develop the appropriate cognitive, social, communication, physical, and self-help skills that form the foundation for later learning in their elementary school years and beyond.

Guided by a child-centered philosophy, the staff plans and implements daily activities according to the individual interests and needs of the child. The program utilizes play and hands-on experience, developmentally appropriate materials, and interactions with knowledgeable and caring adults to help children become confident, independent, and successful learners.

Unlike most private preschools, Manhattan Beach Preschool offers a full continuum of special education support services. Its programs include speech and language therapy, deaf and hard of hearing services, a “learning to learn” bootcamp, and a program supporting social/communication and/or self-regulation/behavioral skills. If a child is determined to need special support, the family and the school will work together to determine appropriate services.

A child is eligible for Manhattan Beach Preschool the first September after they turn 2. However, MB Preschool generally has a long wait list. MB Preschool allows parents to place their children on a waitlist as early as birth. To hold a spot on the waitlist, you must pay a non-refundable $100 application fee.

The enrollment process begins in early January, when current students are re-enrolled. In mid-January, students are enrolled in the 2-year-old program. Starting in February, the school begins taking names off the waitlist for the 3, 4, and 5 year old programs. Monthly tuition currently runs at $1,000 per month for a half-day preschool program and $1,200 for full-day preschool; and $1,050 for a half-day 2-year-old program and $1,400 for full day.
