Requirements

 
Children must be 3 years old by September 30th and toilet trained in order to enroll in the program.

GCC requires immunizations that are also required by the Pennsylvania Department of Health.  These must be completed before admission. An updated schedule of required immunizations must be attached to the application.       (click to view immunization requirements)

Any removable items such as backpacks, coats, boats, and hats need to be clearly labeled with the child's first and last name.  Backpacks are highly recommended for easier traveling between home and school.

A $35.00 non-refundable deposit is required when the application is received.  If the child is not placed because of full enrollment, the deposit is refunded. 

If a child is withdrawn before the school year begins, the Education Office must be notified immediately so a child from the waiting list can be placed in the program.

Payments may be made in three installments for each semester, or payment may be made in full prior to the start of school.

Tuesday/Thursday:  $406.00 per year

Monday/Wednesday/Friday: $609.00 per year

Photographs, video, and audio recordings are an integral part of our classroom community and allow the children and staff to revisit learning activities and share experiences.  Pictures and recordings may be an important aspect of our GCC students’ projects or publicity for the Early Education Center.  Permission slips are signed by parents at the beginning of the year to permit the use of multi-media with a child in learning activities within and outside of the classroom setting.
