NEW FAMILY ORIENTATION PROCEDURE
Our policy on orientation, located in our Parent Handbook, states:
Innovation Station LLC has developed programs to support and challenge children
to learn and grow. We view each child as an individual with his/her own learning
style and experiences. We will include all children regardless of limitations or age,
race, sex, political persuasion, and/or national origin. Integrations of a child with
special needs will require the development of a strong relationship between the
parents, support services, and the center to ensure the proper programming.
Necessary information will be shared with all teachers caring for that child with
special conditions. Innovation Station LLC is non-discriminating and adheres to the
American with Disabilities Act.
A family must complete the following steps before starting:
Tour Visit the center to see the classrooms, meet the teachers, and learn
more about the program
Classroom Visitation - Spend time with your child in the classroom prior to
their first day.
