Kris Cross-
The Patri-Tots Learning Center will host an open house from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 17, at Southern State Community College’s North Campus, 1850 Davids Drive, Wilmington.
Area families who are interested in a preschool for their child(ren), either now or in the future, are encouraged to attend. Families will have the opportunity to see each of the classrooms and explore the recently renovated playground. The site administrator and teachers will be on hand to answer questions. There will be food and fun for all. In addition to games and prizes for the children, there will be door prizes for parents.
“We are excited to invite the community to visit our early learning center,” said SSCC Patri-Tots Site Administrator Karee Shaw. “They will get a chance to see why we recently received our third 100-percent compliant state licensing inspection. “It is a common misconception that we only serve Southern State students, so we want to let the community know we are here for them also.”
Southern State houses Patri-Tots Learning Centers at Central Campus in Hillsboro and North Campus in Wilmington. Both child learning centers are licensed by the ODJFS and are open five days a week serving community members and college students, faculty and staff. The Patri-Tots locations are currently accepting children from 18 months to 5 years of age. There are both part-time and full-time space options at each location.
Developmentally appropriate activities are provided by qualified teachers who have aligned their curriculum with the Ohio Early Learning Content Standards.
“All children, from our toddlers to our pre-kindergarten children, are part of an exceptional program that incorporates a preschool learning environment into a full-day child care setting,” said Shaw.
