Class Groups and Adult/Child Ratios
Children are placed in classrooms by age as of September 1 each year. We meet or exceed DCFS and NAEYC Accreditation adult/child ratios in all classes and class sizes are reduced if needed to accommodate special needs. Each class group is staffed by a Lead Teacher (with a minimum of a bachelor’s degree and IL type teaching certificate), an Assistant Teacher and a Student Assistant. Classes, group sizes and adult/child ratios are as follows:
