Summer Fun is back at BCIT!
Overview of our program
Students enrolled in our Summer Program are ages 2.5-6 years old and potty-trained. Our summer program schedule runs from July 8th through August 15th on Mondays through Thursday from 8:00am-3:00pm. Summer tuition is paid on the MySchoolBucks app at a weekly rate of $160 for the Summer of 2024. This amount may increase slightly from year-to-year as operating costs increase.
You would need to provide a morning and afternoon snack, as well as lunch for your child.
We have two classrooms in our school: the Preschool Classroom for students ages 2.5-4 years old and the PreK Classroom for students who are 4-6 years old and will be entering Kindergarten the following school year depending on the number of students enrolled. Our school has an academic foundation based on state approved preschool curriculums such as Heggerty, Zoo Phonics, Al’s Pals and Creative Curriculum in addition to our weekly thematic units that are created by our staff and Future Educator Teacher Cadets. Our goal is to ensure your child is ready for Kindergarten and beyond to become a lifelong learner.
Our school day is structured in a way to encourage learning through play, which includes scheduled times for small and large group academic instruction, circle time, story time, center time exploration and outdoor play. Our Future Educators Teacher Cadets also work in the classrooms as a work-based learning experience for the summer as they practice their teaching skills in a real-life setting under the example and guidance of our Summer Program staff.
Registration Information
Our Summer Program can accommodate 16 students.
Registration for the fall begins in March when we will survey current families in our program to see if they are interested in our Summer Program. We then open enrollment to our BCIT staff members to fill any existing classroom spots.
If there are any spots remaining in either classroom, we will open publicly on a first come-first serve basis in May, starting with any families on our waitlist.
Deposits must be made on MySchoolBucks to secure your child's spot are non-refundable.
