Wow! This year has FLOWN by!!

May 22nd will be the last day for our PreK classes. There will be no Aftercare that day.

Our CDC Daycare will be closing at 2pm that day as well.

Please make plans to join us at the Ernest Stone Performing Arts Center that evening for our end of the year program! Our littles from the Daycare will perform beginning at 4pm, and our PreK performance and awards will begin at 6pm. We hope you will all be able to join us in celebrating your children and their achievements from the 2024-2025 school year.

We have the BEST teachers at the JSU Child Development Center ! We are so thankful for all you do!

Jax State's 5th Annual Egg-Stravaganza Family Fun Day was a BIG hit! We enjoyed getting to hang out with your little ones and families!

April 15th was a special day here at the CEPS as they held their official ribbon-cutting event. The Child Development Center considers themselves blessed to have been included!

Congratulations on this achievement Dean White, and thank you for all you do for the CDC!

The JSU Child Development Center was excited to welcome some extra special guests to our classrooms! The University Police Department hosted a custom version of their monthly "Conversation with a Cop" program at the CDC. Our students were able to participate in "Coloring with the Cops". The children were able to learn about what a police officer does, ask questions of our new friends, and understand you can ask for help of you are in trouble. They were all even "sworn in" as Jax State officers for the day!!

The JSU Child Development Center was proud to welcome Miss JSU, McKenzie Fuller, as our guest reader during the month of April.

Our staff was blessed to have Nurse Karen Cobb from the Alabama Department of Public Health certify us in CPR and First Aid during our April Professional Development Day.

We also welcomed Chief Michael Barton and BPLE Training Coordinator, Mr. Tony Monroy, for Active Threat training.

The littles of the CDC were excited to welcome the JSU Field School. They presented their gardening study in a fun, hands on format, that we simply loved!

Our PreK students had a blast at the Little River Canyon Center for their Spring Field Trip!
