At Yuma Pre-School, we encourage complete parent involvement. Throughout the year, the School Director schedules various events and activities in which parents are encouraged to attend. We understand scheduling doesn’t always permit participation in these events, which is why we welcome parents and guardians to drop-in anytime. We know it can take a village to best prepare a child for academic and personal success— we need your involvement and support to make this a reality.
With that in mind, we welcome your questions and suggestions at all times. We want to assure you that each and every day, we seek only to provide the absolute best service and care. If we have fallen short in any capacity, or if you are curious about any particular policy, we would like to welcome you to come meet with us. We wholeheartedly support the adage, “when you know better, you can do better”.
Birthdays
We strive to make every Yuma Pre-School student feel special on a daily basis; however, on birthdays we welcome you to help us go the extra mile. Birthdays are extremely important to children and they love sharing them with their Yuma Pre-School friends. Although not required, we welcome and encourage parents to bring small treats for the class on their child’s birthday. The best options are mini cupcakes, cookies, cake pops, etc… We will join in on the fun and coordinate a specific time to celebrate your little one while singing happy birthday. In addition to our in-class-fun, your child will receive a personalized birthday postcard from our staff expressing how much they are loved.
Holidays
We are proud to have a diverse representation of values and beliefs at Yuma Pre-School. We do our absolute best to provide awareness and multi-cultural experiences representing all belief systems. On holidays, you can expect themed activities, games and art projects, as well as education about the day. We strive to make every Yuma Pre-School student comfortable and this is supported in our holiday practices and policies. For additional information please do not hesitate to contact our office staff.
Christmas Program
Our Christmas program is celebration and fun for the entire family! This program is typically scheduled the first Thursday of December (dependent upon theater availability). Confirmation dates will be released by November 15th annually. Please join us to watch your child’s artistic debut as they sing, dance, and share their love for this wonderful holiday.
Field Trips
Field trips are taken during our summer program for school-aged children only. These trips are planned in advance on a weekly basis. Field trip participation will require a permission slip be signed in order for your child to attend.
