Registration Information for 2025-2026
Safety Issues:
We Care is held in the cafeteria. We typically have 15 tables set up that will hold anywhere from 50-70 or more students with their toys, games, etc. We allow the students to move around find a friend to play with, talk. However, it is in imperative that all students follow our rules to ensure safety. This includes; no running, no skipping, no jumping. We also encourage our students to sit at the tables and avoid sitting on their knees. We Care wants your children to be safe and not get hurt. Students who choose not to follow our rules will have to sit with Ms. Mack and have a time out.
When you are picking up your student from We Care at the end of the day please allow time for your child to clean up their area before being dismissed. This is a rule we also follow in the morning before your child can get to their class.
Please discuss these items with your child to help us at We Care stay safe.
