Other ways to Help

Thanks to the generosity of parents we are able to support our teachers and give our kids special experiences now and then. Check our Wish List to help contribute!

Parent-Staff Communication

We love to talk with parents and keep them up-to-date on their child’s growth and learning. Inside your child’s classroom parent’s have access to:

  • Daily Attendance Sheets
  • Weekly Breakfast, Lunch, and Snack Menu
  • Notice of Upcoming Events
  • Posted Schedule of your child’s daily activities
  • Lesson Plans
  • Daily Report (Full-Time Only)

Parents are also encouraged to keep up-to-date through our periodic newsletters, our Facebook Page, or talking with staff in-person, email, or phone!

Observation Resources

The ICC Children’s Center has an observation window and a complete video monitoring system in each of our classrooms. Through a scheduled appointment, parents can view their child’s activities without them knowing they are present. Please feel free to stop by Room 127B to take a look at how your child has adapted to their classroom or to experience their daily activities! The Center Manager can assist you with these unique features at any time.
