Discovery Corner Preschool in Lancaster, PA



Discovery Corner Preschool Extended Day Enrichment ClubsWe are proud to announce the new Enrichment Club program at DCP for the 2020-2021 school year! These clubs offer children ages 3-5 who are interested in different topics a fun, educational club experience to build their knowledge in an age friendly way. Each club has hands-on activities and a different monthly theme that is sure to meet the interests of all preschoolers. Clubs are beneficial for parents who may need extended hours, allowing for that traditional preschool experience but with hours that work for more families. DCP enrichment clubs will take the skills your child is learning in preschool and provide fun-filled activities based on the arts, sports, and much more! DCP enrichment clubs will meet each day from 1:00-3:00pm. You may choose from a two day, three day, or five day option when enrolling your child in clubs. Payment for each month’s club will be due with that month’s tuition. For example, if you enroll your child in clubs for September and January, payment for each would be due with the corresponding month’s tuition payment. You may choose as many or as few clubs as you want. As a bonus, families that register (not pay ahead of time) for all clubs (September-may) will receive a 10% discount. Families that register and pay up front for all clubs (September-May) will receive a 15% discount. Children need to be three years old to enroll in clubs, but do not need to be in the Hungry Caterpillars (three year old) class. As soon as a child turns three, they are eligible to join clubs. The deadline to sign up for a club is the 15th day of the month before that club. (Example: If you wish to register for October’s club, you would need to do so by September 15th.) You can register for clubs by submitting the attached sign up form to the director, emailing the director with your club choices, or filling out the sign up sheet on the parent communication board outside of preschool chapel. Those interested in September’s club should sign up as soon as possible. Payment will not be due until September’s tuition is due. Space is limited, so registering early is encouraged. **Please note: DCP reserves the right to cancel any month’s club due to low enrollment.** Description of ClubsSeptember – Literacy: books come Alive! Better than book club for children, books are coming alive all September long at DCP! Each week will focus on an author or type of literature such as Laura Numeroff’s “If you Give a ____” books.
