A Day in the 1/2 Day Program
Children attending the 1/2 Day Program arrive in their classrooms in the morning and are invited to play in centers with their peers. The children eat breakfast together in family style dinning. After breakfast the children are able to play inside in centers while waiting to work on academic projects appropriate for their age groups. Children are given the opportunity to play outside or go on walks daily, weather permitting. The children are served lunch together as a group. After lunch time, parents pick up their children for the day.
