Kindergarten Readiness Preschool
for Ages 3-5
In operating the school age child care program, the District’s goal is to provide a safe, fun, enriching, “quality” program for children that is convenient for parents. We believe that a quality school age care program can provide positive environments, caring relationships and enriching age-appropriate experiences that contribute to a child’s social, physical, and emotional development.
CASTLE is a place where children can: interact with their peers in a relaxed atmosphere, explore their interests and abilities, choose from a wide range of supervised and self-directed activities, enjoy healthy snacks or work on their homework. Our dedicated staff makes it a priority to teach the children in our care the social skills they need to get along with others. We provide the opportunity for children to be children; time which is active yet unhurried.
