COM Child Development Lab

COM’s Child Development Lab School, which opened in September 1985, is designed, equipped and staffed as a model of excellent group care and education for young children. Its primary purpose is to provide the best possible lab/field experience site for students.

It provides full-time care for children from six weeks of age through pre-kindergarten during the fall and spring semesters. A summer program is provided during the first summer session. (Check with the lab school director for ages to be served.) Evening care services for students attending evening classes on campus during the Fall and Spring semesters are provided for children ages 3-11. These programs for children follow the College calendar for holidays as well as closings during semester, spring and other breaks.

The Child Development Lab School has been accredited by the National Academy of Early Childhood Program Accreditation, a division of the National Association for the Education of Young Children, since June 1987. It is also certified as a Four-star Vendor by the WorkSource Texas Rising Star Program and is licensed by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services.
