	Whiting School Prekindergarten and Child Care Partnership  Announced It is with great pleasure that the Otter Valley Unified Union School District announces the partnership with local community members Amanda Russell and Rebecca Kerr to run a child care center in the Whiting School alongside the OVUU prekindergarten Classroom for the 2018-19 school year. In order to benefit families of students in the program, the OVUU Board sought a partnership with local child care providers who could serve families full day in partnership with the RNESU prekindergarten program. This allows families to access child care and prekindergarten in one setting, Whiting School, eliminating the need for mid-day transportation.  (Click here for the full Press Release)
