  • Teachers who know your child well and care as much as you do about his/her education.
  • An individualized course of study that helps your child develop positive self-esteem as a learner.
  • A safe and secure environment that fosters growth and the development of positive personal and social values.
  • A curriculum rich in meaning with exciting, active classroom learning experiences.
  • Teachers who love to teach, love to learn and are excited about ideas, experience and the pupils in their class.
  • A place where each child is seen as unique and capable; where learning is special and central; where high expectations are self-fulfilling.
  • A school day that runs from 10:00 to 3:00 with an optional Enrichment component from 8-10 or 9-10 AM and afterschool care at the J.C.C. until 5:30 PM.
  • Warm, caring and experienced teachers who push the art of teaching beyond the commonplace and whose #1 priority is to make your child's first year of school a joyful and positive experience and a solid foundation for future growth and achievement.

If this is what you want for your child, the Day School if for you! We offer the finest Kindergarten program in Central New York and we would be delighted to have you consider it for your child.

 

For Kindergarten admission, a child must be five years old as of December 1st of the entrance year. Students entering grades one to three must submit records from their previous school. Admission above the third grade is generally restricted to children transferring from another day school.

An application form, a $500 deposit and a copy of the child's birth certificate should be submitted to the school office during the year preceding Kindergarten admission or as early as possible. To ensure busing, parents must have applied for admission by March 1st, unless they are just moving into the area.
