To help keep the process moving smoothly, please have your child ready when it is your turn. Please wait until the car in front of you has driven away before moving. Do not drive around another vehicle.
We ask that you please remain at your car during pick up & drop off times. If you would like to walk your child to the door, please park in a designated parking spot.
We are doing our best to make pick up as timely and safe as possible. Your cooperation, patience, and adherence to the designated time slots for each program will help us keep the process running smoothly.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!
If your child is enrolled in the childcare program you must sign them in at the door and walk them to the classroom, you cannot utilize the car line.

EEC Childcare/Preschool Waiting List
If you have younger children you hope will attend the EEC in the future, we strongly encourage you to join our waiting list now. Our program fills quickly, and the waitlist is often quite long. Each spring, we hear from families hoping to enroll a younger sibling, only to find that spaces are already full. To ensure your child has the best chance of securing a spot, we recommend adding them to the waiting list as early as possible.
To add a younger family member to the waiting list, please click here.
