The Child Care Center provides quality learning activities, recreational opportunities, and guidance in the development of value systems for youngsters ages 3-12.

Enrollment
Enrollment is ongoing according to availability. Enrollment is based on a first-come, first-served basis and must be completed each semester. Children must be registered before they can attend the program.

Attendance
A parent, grandparent, guardian, or designated person may leave a child, but only people listed on the permission slip can pick up a child from the center. Any changes in this procedure must be made in person by the parent or legal guardian.
