Enrollment
in the ECRC is open to the community and the University students
and staff. The ECRC has both a morning and an afternoon program
for children ages 2-5. Non-refundable deposits, which are applied
to tuition, are accepted March 1st to hold places for both the
Summer and Fall semesters. Enrollment is generally assigned on
a first come, first serve basis. Additional children may be added
from the waiting list if openings become available. Siblings are
given preference in enrollment if deposit and prior arrangements
have been made. The ECRC follows the University schedule. The
Preschool meets Monday through Thursday. A calendar provided to
each parent at the beginning of school year, informs parents of
the ECRC scheduled classes and holidays. Each semester the ECRC
closes for the staff to attend professional development conferences
at NAEYC (Fall) and ACEI (Spring).
