Notices

Parking Lot Safety

Please make sure to be safe and cautious in our parking lot. Look behind you and side-to-side before backing out of parking spots, and make sure to watch your speed while driving. To keep traffic to a minimum we also ask that you not use the parking lot as a cut-through from Worthington-Galena Road to Lazelle Road. Please pull into a parking spot when dropping off and walk with your child to their classroom. Encourage your children to stay with you in the hallways and outside. Thank you for your help in keeping our parking lot safe for all our families!

Is your paperwork up to date?

If you have not already, please stop by the office to make sure your child’s paperwork is up to date and that the information we have is still accurate. If there have been no changes, we still need you to initial and date the back page.

Medical Forms

We are required by the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services to have a medical statement and immunization records for every student attending our center. Medical statements must contain a doctor’s signature and examination date within the last 12 months. You will receive a notice in your child’s mailbox with a date these items are needed by.

Box Tops for Education

Box Tops for Education is even easier to use! Just download the Box Tops for Education app on your phone, select Grace Early Childhood Center as your school, and scan your grocery receipt! Box Tops clipped from items will still be accepted in the office.
