Daybreak is dawn: the time of day when sunlight first begins to appear. As our great teacher of Systemic Thinking, Dr. Gregory Bateson, said, "The major problems in the world are the result of the difference between how nature works and the way people think." Everyone has a dark side in their lives, whether it is a small or big. Throughout our life journey, sometimes we lose our way to a dark night. However, what we are supposed to remember is how nature works. Dr. Bateson pointed out that no matter how dark the night is, the dawn will always come. The crack of dawn will brighten up even our darkest night. This is what Daybreak University always wants to be.
The institution is a private institution, that it is approved to operate by the bureau, and that approval to operate means compliance with state standards as set forth in the CEC and 5, CCR.
