Children 3-6 years are enrolled through Columbus Public Schools. There is no charge for these early intervention services and wrap-around child care is available for a fee. Contact OSU Child Care Center for information and referral. Children develop understanding of concepts about themselves, others, and the world around them through observation, interacting with people and real objects, and seeking solutions to concrete problems. Learnings about math, science, social studies, health, and other content areas are all integrated through meaningful activities.
Routines help children learn to keep themselves healthy and safe.
Individualized activities, relaxed group and varied play experiences stimulate development of adaptive behavior, language, motor, social, emotional and problem solving skills. Chartered by the State of Ohio, the OSU Kindergarten offers a curriculum which meets standards set by the Ohio Department of Education. Schoolagers also have appropriate recreational activities during summer and evening care hours. The Center is staffed by trained caregivers. Administrators have M.S. degrees in child development or equivalent training and experience.
