Where discovery meets community.

Parent Committee

About the Parent Committee

We have an active Parent Committee for the Early Learning Center that meets monthly. All parents and guardians are welcome. Please contact the front office for more information.

The Committee supports the ELC in the following ways:

  • We provide feedback regarding ELC policies and programs.

  • We lead fundraising efforts for the ELC. Last year our direct giving campaign raised nearly $34,000 for scholarships, garden/playground maintenance, and the new classroom floors. We also coordinate restaurant nights and have a book fair to support our fundraising efforts.

  • We coordinate social/community building activities for ELC families. Be on the lookout for classroom meetups, age-based activities, neighborhood get-togethers, and new family welcome events throughout the year.

  • We support classroom learning by encouraging parent participation in classroom activities and coordinating special experiences.

  • We support ELC educators and staff by planning appreciation events throughout the year. Foster ELC has the best educators and we want them to know how much we appreciate all they do for our kiddos!

There are numerous ways to get involved.  Please fill out the questionnaire and email it to our Parent Committee OR drop off at the ELC office!
