The Child Development Center is accredited by the National
Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). The center
provides quality childcare to children ages 6 weeks through
Kindergarten. The individual needs of each child are considered and
the curriculum is planned accordingly through age appropriate activities and
staff interactions which enhance a child's physical, cognitive, social, and
emotional development.

CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS
Includes children
with special needs (asthma, cancer, learning disabilities, developmental delays,
vision and hearing problems, diabetes, attention deficit disorder, etc.) in all
programs. To ensure each child is enrolled in the appropriate program
or service, the Special Needs Resource Team (SNRT) meets with the parent and
review relevant records prior to placement. The goal of this
"family-friendly" team is to share information to ensure the success of the
child's placement into any CYS program. In the event of a new or
updated diagnosis after placement, the parent is asked to inform the center
Director so that an additional SNRT meeting can be
scheduled.
