SUBJECT: Childcare Services to Surrounding Community Offered at ECEC
The Early Childhood Education Center (ECEC) is pleased to announce a change in the availability of childcare services that will benefit both campus families and the surrounding community. Effective immediately, when the waiting lists of campus families are exhausted in any given age group, 5% of the enrollment will open up to the community at large. Implementing this change will allow ECEC to fulfill their commitment of offering quality service at competitive prices to the families of students, faculty, and staff. Maintaining full capacity in all age groups is the most important factor towards achievement of this commitment.
Tuition rates for members of the community will be higher than those charged to campus families. A comparison between the campus rates and community rates is shown below.

If you have any friends or relatives that might be interested in this opportunity, please have them contact the ECEC at 534-2768 for an application. The spaces will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
The ECEC is dedicated to serving the childcare needs of the campus'students, faculty and staff by providing a safe, nurturing environment at affordable prices.
