The Center accepts children from 18 months to 5 years of age and provides a comprehensive program of activities suited to the developmental level of the children.
Tuition is determined by a sliding fee scale, based on parents' income.
Students using the Center are required to participate in a series of parent education courses. In addition, the Center offers services such as family resource and referrals, developmental screening and assessment, and hot lunches. Students can place their children's names on the waiting list by coming to Bldg. The Student Handbook provides important information to TCC students.
