Q: Do you accept UPK?

Q: Do you follow the public school schedule?

A: For the most part, yes, as far as major holidays go. We are closed on Labor Day, Thanksgiving Break, Winter Break, MLK Jr. Day, President’s Day, and Spring Break. We do not follow the public school schedule for late start days, or any additional non contact days.
