our Facebook pages, Discovery Preschool & Childcare Center, as well as Discovery Preschool & Infant Center for any

special events, please ask your child's teacher for more information. Parent input and involvement is extremely important to us. Please feel free to call or email us with any suggestions,
questions, concerns, or constructive criticism. We continually
review and update our program policies, curriculum, assessment methods and classroom environments, and will make changes when
necessary, that we feel will improve our program. Your comments are valued and very important!

Developing a love for books
is very important in the early years. Books are always available to children and story times are provided throughout the day.
We take time to discuss the pictures we see and what we have read. (Baxter, our cat, no longer lives at the Center, and has
retired to our quieter home after 8 years with the children at Discovery)
