MARCELLUS LEARNING CENTER PRESCHOOL

The Marcellus Learning Center is a half day preschool program for children who turn four years of age before December 1st of the program year.  Classes are held Monday through Thursday with both morning and afternoon sessions.

The main focus of the Marcellus Learning Center Preschool is to invoke in children a positive attitude towards school.

Children are introduced to daily school routine which is developmentally appropriate for four year olds.  Activities revolve around themes which are generated by the children's interests.  One field trip a month is planned to give children first hand learning experiences related to our themes.

State funding provides money for 36 children to attend.  Children are chosen on basis of need.  Need is not determined exclusively by income.  Living in a rural community is an example of a qualifying factor.  Home interviews determine need through a variety of factors.  Children must meet at least three criteria of need in order to be considered for the state funded openings.  Children who qualify for Head Start are not eligible for the state funded program.
