Parents and guardians play an essential role at Little Jewels Learning Center. Your involvement is invited, and you will always be welcome to watch what's happening in the classroom, to join your child for a meal, and to speak directly with the director and the staff.

How Will My Child Transition To The Next Room?
Little Jewels will transition students to the next room when they have reached the age requirement. Parents will receive written notice before the transition begins. A written schedule will provide details, including time allotments, that your child will spend in the next room. This transition policy will give ample time for your child to adjust to their new classroom and teachers.
