ALCS Preschool Press

What's the Preschool Press?
The Preschool Press is our monthly newsletter with all things related to preschool, our programming and resources for our preschool families.
Backpack Tags
All preschoolers have a color coded tag on their backpack hook that coordinates to their classroom. This allows all staff to easily identify which classroom a child should be going to for arrival and also if they are a bus rider. Please DO NOT remove the tags.

Lorain with Littles
Lorain with Littles is dedicated to helping families with young children get out of the house and into the community—without breaking the bank. We spotlight free and affordable local events, and we host our own enriching programs like Play Dates, Story Times, Kids’ Workshops, and more. Our mission is simple: make connection, exploration, and fun accessible for every family in Lorain County.
Arrival and Dismissal Parking Lot Reminders
For the safety and security of all of our Redwood students:
- Please only park in designated parking spots
- There is no parking in the fire lane in front of the building
- The parking lot by the playground can be accessed from the west entrance off of Redwood. Follow the drive in front of the building to get to the spots. DO NOT ENTER off of Redwood into the playground parking lot. That is an EXIT ONLY!
Tuition
Friendly reminder that the down payment for your child's LEAPS tuition was due with registration, as well as the first monthly payment this August.
As this payment secures your child's place for the LEAPS program for this 25/26 school year, we kindly ask that you submit the payment as soon as possible to avoid any disruption in enrollment.
Payment Information:
- Payments can be made online via https://www.payschoolscentral.com/ (attached are also instruction on how to set up reoccurring monthly payments)

From the Nurse
Preschoolers are required to have a yearly physical on file. Physicals can be emailed to kimberly.rose@alcsoh.org or turned into the Redwood office.
If your child has not had their physical completed yet but you have a scheduled doctor’s appointment, please share that date with our nurse as well at kimberly.rose@alcsoh.org.
