Summer Camp

 

Summer camp is available for children who have completed the current school year at Avenue Preschool.  Registration begins in the spring annually.  

                                                        

Camps take place from 9:00-12:00 Monday through Friday.  They include snacks, materials, fun crafts, outdoor activities and special events. More details can be found on the "Programs" page of the website.      

 

 Open House

 

Avenue Preschool's annual Open House is typically held in the spring each year although families are welcomed to tour our facility at any time during the year. 

 

When Open House is scheduled, details will be posted here on our website, on our Facebook page, in the Avenue United Methodist Church Bulletin and their Weekly E-News.

 

At Open House, children and their parents/caregivers join us for an informal hour of visiting classrooms, meeting staff, touring the facility, and experiencing a day in the life of a child here at Avenue Preschool.  No RSVP required--we simply hope to see you there!

 

If you know of someone who might like to attend, please help spread the word and invite them to the Open House.

We have become aware that a parent of a student at Avenue Preschool has tested positive for COVID-19.  The health and well-being of our students and staff is our highest priority. 

During the school closure throughout the state, we will be using this time to do a deep clean of our facilities.
