REGISTRATION BEGAN APRIL 12, 2010!
Don't forget to check out our 2 Much Fun Preschool Class for 2 year olds!

It is the philosophy of the Ottawa YMCA Discovery Preschool that early childhood should be a time of warmth, security, exploring, and discovery. Preschool children are creative and receptive; the staff strives to nurture and encourage these qualities in the children who attend.

Preschool's purpose is to provide an atmosphere that encourages social, emotional, physical, and intellectual growth of a child as a whole.

Classes run two days or three days a week;
    Mon/Wed or Tue/Thu for 3 year olds
    Mon/Wed/Fri or Tue/Thu for 4 year olds
Class times are from 10:00am-12:15pm.
 

Admissions
The Ottawa YMCA Discovery Preschool is for children ages 3 to Kindergarten.
Admission requirements are as follows:
        1.  A child must be 3 years old to be admitted into the 3 year old class for Fall or Spring session.
        2.  Children in the 3 year old class may not advance to the 4 year old class during the year unless
authorized by the Director.
        3.  A child must be 4 years old to be admitted into the 4 year old class for Fall or Spring session.
        4.  Classes are filled on a first come, first serve basis according to the date of enrollment.
        5.  If classes are full, a child's name will be put on the waitlist to fill vacancies as they occur.
As vacancies occur during the year, they are filled per the waitlist or new registrations, upon the approval of the Director.
        6.  Children may enter classes on a month-to-month basis. The child must be turning the
appropriate age for class by, or within, that month.

Tuition
Tuition is figured as a monthly fee, able to be paid in nine monthly payments due by the first of the month, beginning in September and ending in May.  Because it is a monthly fee, there are no refunds given for illness, vacations, or snow days as they are not made up. All payments for preschool are due by the first of the month.

There is a small fee due upon registration. This is a one time fee.
Fees available by calling the Ottawa YMCA.

Scholarships
Scholarships are available for children who are unable to pay full cost. Scholarships are made possible by the United Way and our Partners In Youth. Should you wish to apply for a scholarship, contact the YMCA and a confidential form will be given to you. Please specify that is it for the Ottawa YMCA Discovery Preschool.
