GIGGLES LEARNING CENTER

 May 1, 2004

Dear Pre-K Parents:

             This letter will provide you with information regarding the benefits of joining our private Pre-K program at our Giggles facility. 

             Since we value our relationship with you and your child’s education, we are pleased to offer a Private Pre-K Program at our facility.  It is the same Georgia Approved “High Reach” Program taught in Lottery-funded facilities with the same goals, lesson plans, curriculum and objectives.

             We are offering this program at the minimal cost of $35.00 per week.  This is only to cover the costs of necessary educational supplies and materials for the children.

             As you know, the cost for “After-School” care is $60.00 per week, which you will incur even if you go to a “free” program.  The costs for lunches are also incurred in any program, and our cost for this is the same, $15.00 per week.

             Our goal is to be better than the GA Pre-K and still provide the quality care and caring environment that you have become accustomed to at our Center.

             Our school starts classes on August the 9^th, 2004.   We will NOT be following the Cobb County school schedule, so you don’t have to worry about teacher workdays, early release days, Christmas and spring holidays and the many other school holidays.  When GA Pre-K will be closed, we will be open for business as usual for your convenience, and it is included in the cost.  Saving on these extra expenses and the hassle of making other arrangements on these days more than makes up for the $35.00 fee each week.

             There are 25 school holidays and 15 early release days that you will have to make other arrangements for at a cost to you of approximately $2,000.00 per year if you choose GA Pre-K and follow the Cobb County School schedule.   As you can see, our Private Pre-K is actually much more economical than the GA Pre-K.

             We hope you see the value of enrolling in our Private Pre-K Program.  Your child’s transition to elementary school will be much easier and we offer the flexibility, as always, of attending on Saturday and picking up after 6:30 P.M.   No other Pre-K offers these advantages.

              We look forward to providing you this service and thank you for your continued support.  Please let us know as soon as possible if you wish to place your child on the Giggles Pre-K list.

Sincerely,

                                                                       Diane and Larry Whitmire
