Information for Parents

Parents are welcome at the CDC at all times

Parent involvement enriches children’s experiences and strengthens the program. We invite and encourage you to actively participate in the program. Participation may take many forms; reading or telling stories, sharing of special interests, participating on field trips and making items for the center.  You are also welcome to simply observe from the observation booth. Each year, a center family social event is planned and all families are encouraged to attend. In addition, each classroom may plan events throughout the year that parents are also invited to attend.

Family Advisory Committee (F.A.C.), a representative group of parents, the center director, and child development faculty and staff meets monthly. Please view the CDC’s calendar/handbook for upcoming meetings for the 2020-2021 academic year. The P.A.C. discusses issues relevant to the operation of the center and teacher training of students.
