Three's Program
The Busy Bees
Families may choose one of two programs:
Monday-Friday 9:00-12:00
or
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday 9:00-12:00
*We also offer an early morning drop-off from 7:30-9am and an extended afternoon program that runs until 5:30 pm. Please visit the "Extended Day Programs" page for details.
**All children must be three by December 31st of the year that they will enter the school.
Children at this age and level of development need patience and guidance. The teachers guide the children in learning how to interact with their peers and make positive choices. Children's language skills and experience in resolving conflicts is increasing. Much of the time spent in the 3's program is focusing on social skills as well as self-help skills. Our goal is always to encourage and foster independence.
The 3 day 3's and 5 day 3's program is blended on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Parents will be provided with a list of healthy and safe foods that can be sent to school. We ask that each family discusses any food allergies with their child's teacher to ensure proper procedures are followed. We will notify families of any other allergies that might impact the selection of food brought into the school. Teachers will check all labels at each meal.
