Clackamas Community College is spon
soring a Child Development Center.
The center was established as a develop
mental learning center, not just a place
where children are able to be dropped off.
The center is a convenient place for staff
and students to bring their children with
the assurance that they are getting the best
of care.
There are qualified teachers, practicums,
and work study students who work with
children at the center. They work with
children from the ages of three to six
years.
The children take naps from 12:30 to
2 p.m. Each child gets a hot lunch and
two snacks during the day. The price is
right at either $5 per day or $3 per half
day.
Supervisor of the center, Eric Mihata,
says that there is a waiting list for morning
slots, but some slots are still open for
children whose parents go to school or
work from 7:45 a.m. to 5 p.m.
