•   Children must be three years old by September 30, 2019, and completely             toilet-trained.

•   Tuition is $900.00 per year, payable in monthly installments of $100.00.  A            $100.00 deposit is required at the time of registration and will be applied to the      May 2020 tuition payment.  Again this is required to reserve the spot for        your child.

•   Our program is an integrated preschool which provides education to special           needs and typically developing students   3, 4, and 5 years old. Mentor Public         Schools provides this through an inclusion philosophy where typically-                     developing children are in each classroom with at least a 50% ratio.

•   Each classroom has a licensed teacher who possesses at least a Bachelor’s             Degree in Early Childhood Education.

•  Each classroom has a classroom assistant.

•  The Creative curriculum was adopted by the Board of Education for use in the         preschool classrooms. The curriculum is also aligned to the Ohio Early                      Learning Content Standards.

•  All children attend four half-days per week, Monday through Thursday.
