  • Each new child and his or her parent(s) are required to visit the new classroom together before the child starts in order to help the child transition more smoothly into the classroom. The preferred time to visit is from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m.
    • One visit with the parent is required for preschool and
    • Two visits for infants, toddlers, and twos.
