Aiken High School Early Childhood Education Program’s

Child’s Day Out Childcare Program 

The Child’s Day Out program at Aiken High School is designed to provide a fun morning full of developmentally appropriate activities for 3- & 4-year-olds (must be toilet-trained), planned and facilitated by students in Aiken High’s Early Childhood Education program.  

Child’s Day Out programming will be available on Thursday mornings from 8:30-11:30 AM, from January 16th – May 8th, 2025 (no programming during the district’s Spring Break and Intercession). 

Mrs. Franklin, the Early Childhood Education Instructor, will act as “director” and provide direction to her Early Childhood Education (ECE) students. ECE students will be responsible for planning activities, creating or preparing materials for children’s usage, serving a snack, facilitating activities, and providing supervision. 

There will be 16 slots available for 3- & 4-year-old children to attend weekly. Registration for families wishing to enroll a child in the Child’s Day Out program will begin December 13th. A fillable form and $20.00 registration fee will need to be submitted. A waiting list will be maintained for those children beyond the 16 available slots. Children on the waiting list may be added to the program if an opening becomes available on a “first come, first served” basis.  

After registration is completed, Mrs. Franklin will contact parents to confirm the registration and share pertinent information about an Open House and Parent Information Meeting on January 9th, 2025. Policies and procedures will be presented to the parents at that meeting.
