Albany, NY (PRWEB) June 28, 2006
The Spotted Zebra Learning Center, a new preschool in the region, was awarded $ 7,500 in funding from the Ronald McDonald House Charities for the purchase of equipment for its gross motor room.
“We are thrilled with this funding as it will truly help us to offer a cutting-edge gross motor room to help children develop their gross motor and fine motor skills,” said Sheri Townsend, executive director.
The Spotted Zebra Learning Center opened in September 2005, offering a unique program to the Capital Region — a full-day, year round preschool program, with licensed teachers, small classes and a curriculum that addresses both social and cognitive development, strong leadership and supervision, and high standards with accountability. “The Spotted Zebra Learning Center is truly the preschool for the 21st century,” said Sheri Townsend.
Located off of Everett Road in Colonie, the Spotted Zebra Learning Center offers families an eclectic contemporary environment that is both stimulating and supportive of educational development.
“We like to call our approach ‘one-stop caring’, added Townsend. “We know that if children are to succeed in today’s educationally challenging world, they need an edge – they need a preschool that has the capacity to truly prepare them for kindergarten and beyond.”
Under one roof, the Spotted Zebra Learning Center offers families a full day preschool program, early drop off and late pick up plus a multitude of enrichment programming, thus having a parent avoid having to run elsewhere for these services. Additionally, the Center has the capacity with its staffing to provide for preschoolers with a disability, thus ensuring that their needs are addressed and met before kindergarten.
