Melrose preschool taking applications

The Melrose Avenue Preschool is now accepting applications for the 2008 - 2009 school year. The program is designed to be a fully inclusive program, supporting all children, ages 3 to 5. Each session is three hours, with a morning and an afternoon session. The cost is $10 per day. Children attend 2, 3, or 4 days per week, depending on their age.

Because of the size of the classroom, space is limited and children are selected by a random lottery which will take place during the first week in March. To be eligible for the program, children must be screened through the Jamestown Child Outreach Program. Once an application is filled out and submitted, the Child Outreach Coordinator will contact the applicant to schedule an appointment. The application deadline is Feb. 28. Applications are available in the Melrose Avenue School office.
