Summer Early Bird and Lunch Bunch Options:
The Morning Preschool Program will offer an Early Bird option from 8:00-9:00AM. The Early Bird fee is $3.25 per day. Beginning in 2018, the Morning Preschool Program and the Lunch Bunch option will be combined. Parents should provide their child with a packed lunch. The Lunch Bunch cost is included in the morning program tuition.
You must commit to your preferred days for the Early Bird option in advance and you will be charged for the days you commit to whether your child attends or not. This will only be offered if a minimum number of children have signed up. Drop-ins will be permitted as long as the minimum number has already been met for that day and as long as numbers do not exceed required teacher-child ratios. The fee for drop-ins is $5.00/day, due on the day of attendance.
NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN, REGARDLESS OF ATTENDANCE.
Drop-ins
The Drop-in option is offered for children who are already registered for 2-3 days/week and who may on occasion need an additional day. Parents must reserve a space by contacting either the director or lead teacher at least 24 hours in advance. Drop-ins will only be permitted if space allows. Fees for drop-ins are $23.00/day for each child.
Days missed by monthly enrollees may not be "made-up" on different days, therefore the drop-in fee will be charged if a child wishes to attend on a day for which they are not already registered.
