Just B4

 

SD67 is excited to be able to offer another year of our Just B4 preschool program.

 

The Early Years are a very important time for development and preparing for future education. We believe children learn and develop when exposed to a positive, happy, engaging and stimulating environment. We provide a child centered curriculum, and developmentally appropriate educational materials and equipment. A quality preschool education provides activities that encourage children to learn through a balance of pre-literacy and numeracy activities, structured free choice, and hands-on experiences.

 

SD67 Just B4 registration for September 2023 will open April 12th, 2023 with options of enrolling for full week (Monday through Friday), 3 days per week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) or 2 days per week (Tuesday, Thursday).

 

The cost for participation will be $250 for full week registration, $150 for Monday, Wednesday, Friday participation, and $100 for Tuesday, Thursday registration. Subsidy application is available.

 

As we navigate interest in the program, our plan is to accept applications until May 12th, 2023 and then to conduct a random selection process to allocate spaces. All applications following the May  12th application deadline will be waitlisted and considered on a space availability basis.
