This orientation conversation can be in person or by telephone. Before a child changes rooms, parents will be informed in writing of the center's transitional activities. A schedule of times for visiting will be announced in the formal orientation letter. This is to help ease the separation anxiety most likely being felt by both children and parents. These details will be discussed and pre-arranged prior to the move.
Most children are ready, comfortable and excited to move to the next class.
Special difficulties, questions and concerns will be discussed by the parents, teachers and administrator. No child shall be left alone or unsupervised. The staff is trained and encouraged to anticipate and avoid possible difficulties and safety hazards. There is immediate access to working telephones at all times. Emergency numbers are posted in each classroom and near each telephone.
