Age Groupings
Each year children will be placed into two or three groupings, roughly according to age. However, the groupings may change from year to year depending on the make-up of the ages overall and on individual children's needs. The children will spend morning meeting time in their age groupings, but for the rest of the day will be interacting with children from all groupings. See the Curriculum page for more details on the flow of the day.
Each group will be assigned one or two advisor teachers. The advisor teacher will be the parents' first point of contact for questions and concerns about their child and will be responsible for keeping tabs on the child throughout the year.
Please note that age groupings are subject to change based on the number of children enrolled in each category. Children in any age grouping may attend half-day or full-day for any consistent number of days each week. Parents may select their days at registration time. Please note that children must be 2 1/2 on the day that they start, and we do NOT require that they be potty-trained.
