We have found that with the increase of food allergies, organic diets, and so forth, we have chosen to allow each parent to make the food choices for your own child. Each child will bring his/her own lunchbox and water bottle, and we provide a time to eat midway through each class. We will provide a snack and water for the children if they forget their own snack. As an additional note, we always provide water whenever a child is thirsty.
YES. An important factor in choosing where your child will go to PreK through Kindergarten is what level the children around him/her will be.
