Parent Resources

Some items are handled directly through your campus office because details can vary by classroom and age group. If you are not sure where to start, your campus team will point you in the right direction.

Procedure Reminders That Keep the Day Smooth

Most school-day stress comes from confusion, not from rules. These reminders help keep routines predictable for children and convenient for families.

Pick-up and drop-off updates

If you ever need to update authorized pick-up information, contact your campus team so expectations stay clear and consistent.

Attendance and schedule changes

If your child will be out or your schedule needs to change, letting your campus know early helps the day run smoothly for everyone.

Safety expectations

Our procedures are designed to support both protection and calm routines throughout the day.

Safety and Security

At-Home Routines That Make School Easier

Parents often search for preschool parent resources because they want their child to feel confident and successful. A few simple habits at home can make mornings smoother and help children feel more secure at school.

If your child is having a tough drop-off

Hard mornings are normal, especially during transitions. The best support is consistency. A calm routine, a quick goodbye, and steady follow-through usually work better than long explanations at the door. Teachers are experienced at helping children settle in and redirect into the day.

Child practices independence by putting on shoes at home

Small routines that help a lot

  • Keep bedtime and wake-up times as consistent as possible

  • Build extra time into the morning so drop-off does not feel rushed

  • Practice independence skills like shoes, jackets, and cleaning up

  • Talk positively about school, even on hard mornings

  • Keep goodbyes short and confident (teachers will help with the transition)
