Extra Clothing

On occasion, clothes may become soiled due to the nature of our play or in some instances, potty accidents. The preschool requires that you send a seasonal set of clothing including (including socks and underwear) in a labeled sealable plastic bag for your child in case of accidents or spills. Additional information is found on the What to Bring to School list.

Outside Play

Outside play is offered daily, weather permitting, and encouraged to develop his/her gross motor skills. On rainy days, alternative physical activities will be provided indoors. Please send your child with a coat, hat and gloves for cold weather. Sunscreen and/or insect repellant should be applied by the parent before arrival to the preschool at the discretion of the parent.

Potty Training

For all children aged 3 or over by September 1, being potty trained is required. All children at this age should recognize and communicate with their teacher when they need to use the restroom. Children must also be able to manipulate their clothing, unfasten and remove clothing to use the restroom and clean themselves with little to no assistance. Belts are not recommended since they can be hard for students to manipulate. We encourage parents to continue practicing appropriate toilet training at home.
