Positive Behavior Guidance
Preschool staff uses positive behavior guidance to help children learn how to interact with others and use the classroom materials . Children are taught skills to regulate their behaviors and emotions .
If you are contacted regarding your child ’ s behavior in school , you will be expected to work with school staff on a positive behavior intervention plan to ensure a safe and secure classroom for all children and staff .
Toileting
Children in general education preschool spots must be toilet trained to attend preschool . Teachers can provide verbal guidance if necessary . This means a child knows when they need to use the bathroom and can independently take care of their own personal needs . Pull-up diapers are not a substitute for being toilet trained . If a child is experiencing toileting accidents in school , the parent or a caregiver may be asked to postpone attendance in preschool until the child is completely toilet trained .
Tuition payments
• Initial payment includes a $ 49 non-refundable registration fee and the last month of tuition for the school year , if applicable . No payment is made until the child ’ s class is confirmed .
