Principal's Page

Dear Parents & Visitors,

Welcome to the Valley View Early Childhood Center. I am very excited to be the Principal who will lead and support the staff who will provide your child with many learning experiences. Your child will learn important skills through an active learning environment, outdoor activities and field trips. There will also be opportunities for you, the parent/ guardian, to become involved in your child’s classroom, the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) and Parent Involvement & Child Enrichment activities.

Preschool should be one of the most enjoyable times in a child’s life. Your child will gain self-confidence, independence and friendships. With parents as our partners, we can accomplish these important goals. The teachers will use the Creative Curriculum as the foundation of learning along with their assessment program. You will be informed of your child’s progress thought parent-teacher conferences and progress reports. Communication will be open and ongoing. As you can tell, the staff play an important role in your child’s learning. We want to make their experience an exciting and memorable one.

Please take time to browse our website to learn more about us. Visit us often to see what’s new as our website evolves and grows.

We look forward to building meaningful relationships with you and your child.
If you have any questions please call the Early Childhood Center at:

Donna Nylander,
Principal
