What your family gets
A full preschool day, thoughtfully planned.
Each part of the day has a purpose. Students learn with close teacher attention, eat fresh meals, play outside, and rest in real beds. Families choose three, four, or five days and can drop off and pick up within our 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM hours, Monday through Friday.
02
Learning throughout the day
A written preschool curriculum builds language, early literacy, number sense, creativity, movement, and social-emotional skills.
03
Four meals included
A fresh breakfast, hot lunch prepared that day, and two snacks are served from the onsite kitchen and included in tuition.
04
Real time to rest
Students change into pajamas and rest in real beds while soft classical music plays, then return to the afternoon refreshed.
The fact that I cried as a parent clearing her cubby should speak about how attached my daughter and I were to this school.

Questions parents ask
What ages does the preschool serve?
Starbright is now enrolling ages 2 through 5, with preschool classrooms for ages 2 through 4, plus transitional kindergarten and kindergarten.
Is Starbright a preschool or full-day child care?
It is a licensed child care center that offers full-day hours, so it covers what most families mean by daycare. The campus is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM, and you choose three, four, or five days each week. Within those hours students follow an early childhood education curriculum refined through nearly thirty-five years of experience, eat four meals prepared in the campus kitchen, play outside, sing with live music, and rest in real beds. Every classroom has two teachers.
Is this a good fit for a child starting preschool for the first time?
Yes. Our Cupertino/West San Jose campus is cozy and family-like, with teachers who stay close, familiar routines, and time for young students to settle in at their own pace.
What are school hours?
Starbright is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM. Choose three, four, or five days each week, with drop-off and pick-up within those hours.
How big are the classes?
Every classroom has two teachers. Across the school, classes average 18 students, about nine per teacher, so each child is known and looked after.
Are meals included?
Yes. Each campus has an onsite kitchen and a full-time chef. Students receive four meals daily: a fresh breakfast, a hot lunch prepared fresh that day, and two snacks, all included in tuition.
What languages do Starbright families speak?
Many. Starbright has always been a multilingual, multicultural community, a mirror of Silicon Valley itself. Instruction is in English, and parents from many backgrounds tell us they found a second family here.
How is tuition structured?
Choose a three-, four-, or five-day preschool schedule. For the 2026-2027 school year, tuition is $2,774 per month for five days, $2,455 for four days, or $1,830 for three days. Every schedule includes the full day from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM and four meals daily. Optional Enrichment Programs are available for an additional fee. View all tuition and Enrichment Program rates.
What happens after I request a tour?
Your request is saved before you choose a tour time. You can choose from the available tour times or ask Starbright to arrange the visit with you. Requests received Monday through Friday between 10 AM and 3 PM typically receive a personal response within a few hours. Requests that arrive outside those hours are answered the next school day.
