COVID-19 SAFETY GUIDELINES
Last Update: January 01, 2022

The health and safety of our preschoolers and families is always our highest priority. To mitigate the risks of COVID-19 while preschoolers are in our care, we have adopted additional health and safety measures on CDC guidelines, State of Idaho, the State Board of Education, Central District Health Department, and the American Academy of Pediatrics. Given the evolving situation, we will continue to update these protocols as necessary.
