Child Care Center

By Rachel Nowery
The Child Care Center and students from the Nursing Program temporarily joined forces for children the month of September. A tooth-brushing clinic was held to allow nursing students the chance to fulfill community-service requirements.

Upcoming events for the Child Care center include a trip to a local nursing home on Oct. 27, and the annual Trick or Treat Festival, which will also be at the end of the month. For the Festival, children will dress up and walk around the school, visiting classrooms and faculty. They will “Trick or Treat” throughout the day giving parents and students the opportunity to take pictures of the children.

The Child Care Center is also awaiting word on a $94,000 grant. If the grant is accepted, it would greatly help the Center, in not only improving the conditions, but benefiting the children as well.

There are still some spots open for children in the Child Care Center. If you need child care services while attending West Virginia University of Parkersburg please contact Tina Taylor, Child Care manager, for more information 424-8311.
