School Notes Overview:

Bal Swan Children's Center is currently celebrating our forty-third year of service to children.

We want you, as a parent, to look into our busy, happy, noisy, creative classrooms and see your child at work and play. We want you to realize the validity of that play and the importance of what is being learned. Parents and teachers together can help the children to develop their full potential.

The Center provides early intervention therapies and education services for children with disabilities from infancy to 8 years old. Approximately 40 percent of our student population has a wide variety of disabilities and 60 percent are typical preschoolers....
