Helpful Information and Resources
Open Door Policy
Families can visit CCDC at any time and participate in classroom activities. The open-door policy and large observation windows allow parents to observe and interact with their children during their daily activities.
Special Events
Families can attend special center events. CCDC sponsors seven family events during the year.
These include a Curriculum Night, Grandparents’ Day, Halloween Party, Thanksgiving Feast, Christmas Party, Family Feast Night, and the Spring Fling/Preschool Graduation.
Parent Education
Families can attend weekly parent education sessions. These sessions provide information on topics ranging from potty training to money management. Income-eligible families may receive a childcare tuition voucher for attendance.
Family Teacher Conferences
Families can attend family-teacher conferences held twice yearly. During conferences, teachers will share the profile and observations with parents documenting the child's progress in each goal area. Families are welcome to schedule conferences with teachers at any time.
Family Advisory Group
Families can become a part of the Family Advisory Group. This group is vital to the success of the center. They provide assistance during special events, in the classroom and advise the Board of Directors on matters important to families. Yearly the group sponsors two fundraisers per year, normally a Book Fair and a fundraiser to purchase small equipment for the center. In addition, a center work night is scheduled each year.
Keep Informed
Families can stay informed through the CCDC Monthly Newsletter. Each month the newsletter contains important center information and announcements, and menus. In addition, Textcaster reminds families of events and sends out announcements. We also use Procare to help us keep you up to date on your child’s classroom activity and improve communication with our staff.
