Program Information

Enrollment

Children between the ages of  6 months and 5 years old are eligible for enrollment at Noah’s Ark.  Children may attend the center between the hours of 7:30 am and 5:30 pm Monday through Friday.  We offer after school care and summer daycare for children ages 5-12 yrs that follows the academic calendar for Hope Academy.   

The preschool/ pre-k program runs from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm daily.

Children can be enrolled for either full day or half days (7:30 am - 12:30 pm). Childcare is available for anywhere from 2-5 days per week.  Drop in days for currently enrolled children are available or can be arranged for others with pre-registration.

A registration fee of $125 is due once the director has assigned a start date. This is a one time, non-refundable charge.

Children will be assigned to a class based on their age.  Children will need to be potty trained to start the pre-k program.  They will remain in a classroom with changing tables until they are fully potty trained.
