Preschool - Preparing children physically, socially, emotionally & academically for kindergarten.

Time for Toddlers is a chance for your two year old to develop socially and to prepare them for the YMCA three year old preschool program. There are 12 children in each class, along with a lead teacher and two co-op parents. Children will be able to participate in gross motor activities, fine motor activities, puzzles, games, art, music, and being read to in a loving environment.

Requirements: Child must be 2 on or before September 1st of the current school year. Parent MUST help in classroom at least twice a month.
Times Offered: Monday & Wednesday; Tuesday & Thursday or Friday.
Cost: $68/month (2 day); $39/month (1 day)

Children must be potty trained EXCEPT for toddlers. When you are scheduled to co-op, you will be required to either bring a snack or drink for your child’s class.
Each time a class meets, we have two parents that help in the classroom, along with a lead teacher. Parents will again this year have the opportunity to participate in the buy-out program. This option allows each parent to co-op 1/2 as much during the school year. Each parent who wants the option of the buy-out will pay an extra $15 per month for the 3's class and $18 per month for the Pre-K classes. An aide will be hired on those days that you were to co-op. The buy-out option is a 9 month commitment, beginning in September and ending in May. Please talk to the Preschool Director at 656-0436 ext. 25 if you are interested in this option.
