Description: At McCormick Preschool, our goal is to provide the finest quality early education and child care services in a safe, fun and stimulating environment. We promote high self-esteem and excellent developmental and socialization skills.
Our school has been designed to not only allow us to care for your child, but to structure a positive, fun learning environment as well. Children are encouraged to maximize their potential and develop at their own pace through well-planned developmental guidelines. Goals are designed to meet each child’s individual needs. Your child will be assigned to his/her own classroom based on age and developmental level.
We encourage you to browse our website to learn more about who we are and what programs/curriculum we offer.
Thank you for taking the time to visit us online and we look forward to meeting you and your child!
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
