The children have extra time to socialize and play and you have extra time to accomplish tasks. You may choose a permanent reservation and save $2 a day or you may use our drop in system by signing up on the clipboard at our check-out computer any day The Barnyard Club is offered. Permanent reservations are $13.00 a day and are billed with the monthly tuition statements, prior to usage and regardless of usage. Drop in reservations are $15.00 a day and will be billed after usage. You may cancel a permanent reservation at any time.

Curriculum & Schedule

Our curriculum at the Silo Center Preschool is both developmentally and age appropriate for each child. It is designed to foster all areas of development: cognitive, social, emotional, language, physical, as well as spiritual. We use guidelines consistent with criteria set forth by the NAEYC (National Association for Education of Young Children). Our qualified teachers and staff are trained to respond to your child’s emerging interests to encourage his/her curiosity within a safe environment that allows them to explore and discover.

Simply put….Our goal is to love your children, nurture their natural ability to learn and help them to play well with others.

A late fee of $25.00 will be assessed for each payment received later than the 5th of the month. Failure to remit tuition payments for two consecutive months is grounds for dismissal from the program. Please Note: While not all months of the school year have the same days in attendance, tuition is prorated according to the total number of school days for the year so that all ten payments are equal.
