Noah's Ark

July 2026 Parent Information

Happy Summer!

To help keep all children safe and accommodate food allergies, dietary restrictions and licensing guidelines, we do not allow birthday treats or other food items to be brought into the center. Families are welcome to celebrate their child’s special day by bringing in a favorite book to share with the classroom or bringing a small non-food item, such as stickers, tattoos, or another age appropriate trinket to share with classmates.

Although flip flops are fun to wear in the summer, they are difficult to keep on and are not safe for running and climbing. We ask that parents please dress their child in weather appropriate clothing with tennis shoes or sandals with covered toes and a firm strap around the heel.

All children 6 months or older must have a bottle of non-aerosol sunscreen, labeled with your child’s name, at school. Feel free to bring in baseball hats or sunhats for your child to wear outside.

Don’t forget to notify the Directors with schedule changes or vacations this summer.

Reminders from the Office:

  • Our cut off time to drop off children is 9:30am each morning. If your child has an appointment and will not be at school by 9:30am please check in with the directors.

  • If your child is going to miss a day please email or give us a call.

  • For those of you who are on Facebook go and like our Facebook page. (Noah’s Ark Child Development Centers Inc.)

Tuition Reminders:

  • Weekly tuition is due on Monday or Tuesday each week. Monthly tuition is due the first of each month. Please pay weekly tuition no later then Tuesday and monthly tuition no later then the first week of the month in order to avoid $20 late fee. If tuition is not paid your child will be unable to attend until your account is current. There are 5 weeks in the month of July. If paying monthly please multiply the weekly rate by five. As always if you have questions regarding tuition please feel free to stop in the office.

  • Tuition is due regardless of absent, illness, or vacation days. If your child has been absent, tuition can be paid on the first day that your child returns to the center.

  • Subsidy Co-pays are always due every other week. Please make sure your co-pay is paid by July 6th & July 20th.
