Early Childhood Classes

Early Childhood Family Education* provides classes and services for families with young children from birth to kindergarten.  A typical ECFE class includes parent discussion while children learn together in an early childhood classroom.  Parents and children later join each other for fun learning activities.

Preschool classes are for 3 and 4 year-olds.  Our preschool program provides children with a positive introduction to school.  Our teachers are highly-qualified, experienced and licensed by the state.


*There have been some changes to the ECFE section of the printed catalog.  The online version has been corrected.
