According to Granberry, topics
discussed in lecture are reinforced
in the daycare setting.
For example, the students may
discuss multi cultural children’s
literature in class, and then read
some of that literature to the
children in the daycare.
Student numbers in the Early
Childhood Development program
include 3 students in the
curriculum planning class, 15-17
in the children’s literature class,
25-27 students in the night
classes, and 10-12 in the child
development class, according to
Granberry.
Most of these classes require
first-hand observations at the
Daycare.
The Daycare, open from 6:30
a.m. to 5;30 p.m., has been
available since March 1998. The
cost is $72 per week, but the fees
may change soon.
The Daycare staff consists of
Sharon Foil, director, and 3 full
time and 2 part-time employees.
The Daycare has 29 children and
is licensed for 32.
The Daycare is open for those in
the community, WCC students,
staff, and faculty.
Student grants and Department
of Social Services funds are
available for parents that cannot
afford the cost of childcare.
