Director's Comments
Question to director: Please list anything you wish parents to be aware of with respect to the application process.
Monte Tavor offers a bilingual Spanish program for infants, toddlers and preschoolers.
Once you decide to enroll your child with us all families are interviewed and asked questions to find out if the service or program they are looking for is the kind we offer at Monte Tavor. Families should be aware that we do not do credit checks, but only have them sign a financial agreement that Monte Tavor will receive payment for services rendered.
Parents should ask questions to find out if what we offer is what they are looking for in a program for their children. Monte Tavor signs up families who understand how we operate and know what they will be getting from our services.
Monte Tavor is looking for families who make sound decisions in choosing us to be a place for their children where they will spend their years before going to kindergarten. We are interested in getting families who will bring their young child and keep them here until they graduate from our program to go to kindergarten, a long tenure we believe is important to build a relationship with you and your child.
Please make sure you ask all questions in regards to policies and procedures as they are outlined in our contracts.
We welcome all families from different cultural and diversity groups to have the opportunity for their young child grow up to be Spanish bilingual.
