Personal Belongings:
Toys and money should not be brought to
the center unless it is requested for a special occasion. Bottles
and pacifiers are not allowed in the preschool area. All parents
are asked to bring an extra set of seasonal clothing for your
child to be left in the cubby area. The extra clothes should include
top clothes, socks, and underclothes. (Note: When a child is being
potty trained, several pairs of training pants should be brought
to the center on a daily basis.) Please put your child’s
name or initials on all items left.
*Lost and Found* -- Unlabeled clothing/items left will be placed
in Lost and Found at the close of each day. It is the parent’s
responsibility to check this area daily. All items left at the
end of the month will be given to Goodwill.

Parent Teacher Conferences
We schedule parent/teacher conferences,
if needed, following thirty days of enrollment to discuss your
child’s adjustment to his/her new childcare environment.
A parent/teacher conference will be scheduled soon after the child’s
fourth birthday to discuss the coming year and the child’s
readiness for kindergarten or alternate future programs. Parents
or teachers may schedule additional conferences as desired or
warranted to discuss the child’s progress and/or any specific
problems that may arise. You will be provided with two assessments
per year.
