Did you know that Playday has a vibrant Board of Directors made up of parents, church members, and community volunteers? The purpose of the Board is to support the vital ministry of Playday. The Board assists the Director in evaluating policy, procedure and finance. The Board also works to create support through volunteer recruiting. Our final meeting for this school year is on April 12th. The incoming officers will preside.

We have several severe nut allergies in our building. If your child is in a nut-free classroom, please do not send any food containing nuts for lunch or snack. Thanks for helping us keep Playday a fun and safe place for every child!

Coming Fall 2023:

We will expand our Outdoor Classroom to include a GARDEN! Come and GROW with us!
