Special
Information:
Enrollment
preference is given to USI students, staff and faculty; however, we do accept
community children, if space allows. USI-affiliated parents may enroll their
children ages 3-6 years in the full-day child care program on an hourly or daily basis to
accommodate class and study times. Children enrolled in the two-year old class
must enroll full-time. A half-day preschool program
that meets two (TTh), three (MWF) or five mornings per week is offered during
the academic year, from 8:30 a.m.- 12:15 p.m. and is available for community
children, as well as those whose parents are affiliated with USI. Fees for this
program are included on the
Fees & Financial Assistance page.
The USI Children's Center's
objective is to offer
an environment that encourages children to develop their capabilities and
interests at their own pace and according to their individual needs. Our
staff recognize the uniqueness of each and every
child and provide positive encouragement for the child's continued growth. |

| Directions to Center:
After
entering campus on the overpass, turn right onto the first road, Clarke
Lane, a one-way street. Continue straight to the end of the large
parking lot, just before the road
begins to curve. The
Children's Center is on the right. You may park in the small drop-off lot,
behind the Center; or, if full, park in the large lot
across the road. If you park across the road, remember that Clarke Lane is a VERY busy thoroughfare, so be cautious
and stay within the crosswalks. |

Spaces available:
Because many student parents change their schedules after fall
or spring classes begin, openings
in the 2-6 year old flex-care program vary on a
day-to-day basis. If you are interested in sending your child
to the Children's Center during the 2007-2008 academic year,
call to have your name placed on the waiting list.
The half-day 2007-2008 Preschool program for children ages
3-5 that meets MWF and/or TTh during the academic school year is full, but names
are being accepted for a wait list and for the 2008-2009 school year. Call 812-464-1869 for more information.
Summer Programs: USI offers year-round
programming for preschool-aged children and operates a high-quality summer
school-age program. If you are interested in summer programming for preschoolers,
call 812/464-1869. If you are interested in summer programming for
school-age children, visit the Web site for
Kindergarten Camp
