Children's Center

General Information

Our Philosophy
The Children’s Center is committed to providing opportunities for learning and meaningful play that are based on each child’s needs, interests and abilities. We seek to provide opportunities that build necessary foundations for future reading, math and social skills as well as to provide a safe atmosphere where each child’s sense of self-worth and competency are developed.

General Information
During the Fall and Spring semesters the Children’s Center will be open from 7:45-5:15 following the academic calendar.
During the school year children K-2 are allowed to attend the center when public school is not in session.
Enrollment forms are available both online and in the Director’s office.
