The EC1 and EC2 Programs include indoor and outdoor activities organized around learning centers. Large and small group activities include storytime, movement, music and art, science, and library. Full-day and half-day options with before and after school daycare are available.
Children must turn 2 years old before July 1, 2021 to enter our 2021-2022 EC1 Program.
We do not accept applications for the EC2 Program because we do not increase the class size from the previous year's EC1 Program and rarely have openings. Kindergarten is a wonderful entry point for new families to attend The Center, and applications will be available for the 2022-23 Kindergarten in July 2022.
