Programs and Policies

Programs:

• Infant and Toddler Program - ECYC accepts infants at six weeks old with a doctor's release.  Our young babies and toddlers are very special to use and are cared for in a loving, nurturing environment.

• Blue Jays Program - Children who have reached age two at the beginning of the school year will be placed in a Blue Jays class.

• Pre-K 3 Program - Children who have reached age three at the beginning of the school year will be placed in a Pre-K 3 class. 

• Pre-K 4 Program - Children who have reached age three at the beginning of the school year will be placed in a Pre-K 4 class.

Policies:

• Enrollment in any class will be for the full year.  All children advance to the next program in mid-August with the start of the new school year.  Exceptions for placement will be considered on an individual basis.

• Communication between parents, teachers and staff is vital for the best care for your child.

• Each day, parents of infants, toddlers and two-year-olds will receive a report on their child. We encourage you to discuss these reports with your child’s teacher.

• One daily report for each of the older classes will be posted outside their classroom.

• Our program policies are designed with each child’s safety and security in mind. Our staff is trained to redirect children engaged in inappropriate behaviors. Teachers also positively reinforce the appropriate behaviors through verbal praise and other appropriate means.
