All exterior doors remain locked during the school day. Security cameras are installed throughout the building, including the preschool hallway. Visitors must call the preschool to gain entry and will be admitted by a preschool staff member. All staff members have completed BCI and FBI fingerprint background checks and are fully approved by the State of Ohio to work at the preschool.

At Community Preschool, we value and appreciate parent involvement! Each classroom has a liaison who helps plan three to four classroom celebrations throughout the school year. Parents are also invited to participate as “secret readers” in their child’s classroom.

Families may volunteer to assist with special events such as our annual Field Day in May, as well as enrichment programs including fire safety, dental health, and other special learning experiences. Parent volunteers play an important role in creating a fun, engaging, and supportive preschool community.

Conflicts between students and challenging behaviors are viewed as opportunities for learning and growth. Our goal is to support children as they navigate these situations and to provide them with the tools they need to understand their emotions, make positive choices, and grow socially.

Our staff understands that testing boundaries and experiencing peer conflict are normal parts of early childhood development. Teachers are trained to guide children through conflicts by discussing options, offering choices, and encouraging children to take an active role in problem-solving. We also focus on helping children recognize their feelings and develop self-regulation skills.

Parents will be kept informed if a behavior becomes a consistent pattern or if the nature of the behavior is concerning. Open communication is always encouraged, as we value parents as important partners in their child’s learning and development.
