- New Drop-in Garderie Flat Rate(s): In order to accommodate as many drop-ins as possible while maintaining a safe environment for our students, we have created a pricing structure that incentivizes parents to preregister, while continuing to provide service to those who need Garderie on a more occasional basis. Click here for details.
- New Preregistered Garderie Options: Click here for details.
- Late Pick-up Fee Change: We have changed our pricing structure to encourage parents to pick up their children in a timely manner, while not unduly burdening those who are occasionally late. Click here for details.
- We Will Be Fully Implementing Our Electronic Sign-out System, making the sign-out process even easier for everyone involved. Click here for details.
