Changes to our Website

Please check out our new resource page on our website.  While it is not complete, it will contain various links to frequently utilized services for children.  Over the next month, resources will be added that will contain transition tips for entering PS and K, skills that are helpful for a child to know before entering PS, PK & K, as well as other helpful insights from teachers.  

Summer Program
 
We are happy to announce that we will offer a summer program during the 2019 summer!
Enrollment will be first offered to current students and their siblings. Enrollment will be limited to the first 24 registered students. After the 24 spaces have been filled and if there is enough interest, we will open an additional 12 spaces.  
 
Reserve a space for your child(ren) by completing the Summer Enrollment Choice Form and returning it to the office with a $50 non-refundable registration fee per family by 5/3/19.  This fee will reserve enrollment and will also be credited toward your tuition for the summer.   Registration/Emergency Contact forms, a current physical and immunization records will be due at this time as well.

Forms are located in the office and in the extended day room upstairs.
