The following is the items needed for a smooth first day:

• Lunch with ice pack if child is staying during the lunch hour. Be sure your child's name is printed on the outside.

​

Return to the front office:

• All enrollment forms, fully completed;

• Inhaler forms with inhaler to be kept in front office, if applicable

​

​

We understand, no matter how well prepared and excited a family may be, the newness can be a little scary for everybody. We don't consider any questions or concerns you have to be unimportant or silly. 

​

Sometimes saying goodbye isn’t easy. We recommend you keep it reassuring, short and sweet. Prolonging the inevitable often does not help the situation. Ten minutes or so should do it; however, we will not rush you and respect your right to decide how to best handle the situation with your child.

​

We are committed to provide an environment that will give your child every opportunity to develop to their greatest potential. We sincerely hope this will be the beginning of a rewarding and trusting relationship between your family and our staff!
