Frequently Asked Questions

1.      It’s our first day of school! What do I need to know / pe prepared for:

See our First Day of School Guide! This will walk you through drop off, pick up, & everything else to expect.

 

2.      Can I tour the facility?  

Yes, any Monday-Thursday during the school year between 9:30-11:30am

Visit our “Schedule a Tour” page to pick a specific time.

Walk-ins are welcome as well.

 

3.      Where do I send the registration?  

You can submit your online registration and your registration fee online. We also accept hard copies. You can mail or drop the registration to the preschool during the school year.

Please note: classes fill up quickly and are on a first come, first served basis.

 

4.      May my child come on a tour with me? 

Absolutely, in fact, we encourage it! 

 

5.      Do you take registration over the summer?  

Yes!  Registration starts in January and continues until all classes are full.  

Please mail all registration to 991 Hidden Valley Drive Wadsworth, OH 44281

 

6.      Does my child really have to be potty trained?  

The short answer is YES.   However, we are not bothered by an accident or two and are willing  to work with your child as they adjust to preschool. 

Please do NOT send your child in a Pull-Up.

 

7.      What curriculum does the school follow?  

We follow the same Ohio Early Learning and Development Standards followed by the public schools in Ohio.  Our mission is to provide a quality, play- based education that prepares our students for Kindergarten while still allowing them to be kids.   

 

8.      Do you take vouchers?  

We do not take vouchers.  Cash, check and credit (for a small fee) are accepted.  

 

9.      Are you Star Rated?  

No, the star rating system advertised by many preschools is a program developed by the Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services to improve the quality of day cares and preschools that accept State funding.  We do not take any state funding and therefore are not required to participate in this program.  Instead, we use our limited resources to 'build a better preschool' and keep our staff up to date with the latest training and In-Services available. For reviews from families that have children with our school, please visit “Grizzly Club Preschool Testimonial’s”.

 

10.   Do I have to pay a registration fee for each child and is it really non-refundable? 

No, only one fee is required per family, per school year.  Fees are non-refundable because they hold the spot for the child in our program,  so please read the Parent Handbook prior to registering. 

​

11.   Why is the price the same when all the months do not have the same number of school days? 

Our tuition rates are based on a YEARLY rate.  The division of payments by month is for ease of payment for parents.  You may pay in full at any time.  The minimum due each month is the 'monthly tuition' or late fees apply.
