St. Michael-Albertville Community Education

Birth to 5 years Separating with Parent Group A class specifically for families with children on IFSP/IEPs in the STMA school district. If your child receives home visiting or attends preschool on an IEP this is your class! Family and friends try to understand the unique situations of parenting a child with special needs, but they just don’t understand. Families will spend time together exploring the room and participating in group activities, then parents will have the opportunity to separate. Conversations and resources, support and laughter are the key components to parenting time. This class is FREE to all participants. Sibling care is provided for free.

All Ages Separating with Parent Group Just as the Mixers class, the ECFE 2.0 has something for all-ages. A class for the veteran ECFE parent who has been there - done that. Families with 2-3 years of experience will enjoy discussions on trending topics using articles, video, and online information. Unlike any other parent group! In the best interest of all participants, please utilize sibling care for infants. PLEASE REGISTER ALL CHILDREN SEPARATELY. First child will be the selected full price and the second child will be at a reduced rate.

1 to 3 years Separating Join us for an exciting class designed specifically for toddlers aged 1 to 3 years old. Your toddler will have ample opportunities to move, explore, and interact with a variety of materials and activities while parents have dedicated time to connect with each other and build a supportive community with other families. Each session is carefully crafted to stimulate toddlers’ senses, promote motor skills development, and encourage social interaction with peers. Whether it’s exploring new textures, making new friends, or discussing parenting tips, our ECFE class promises a rich and rewarding experience for both toddlers and parents alike.

Ages Birth-Five Separating Our traditional ECFE model in this separating class will bring smiles to children and parents! A fun and creative environment for parents and children to explore together. A balance between structured and non-structured play will introduce families to school in a positive, spirited manner. Science, art, literacy and movement activities will be developed for all abilities and ages. Parents will be provided with a relaxed setting for questions and conversation among other parents facilitated by a parent educator. PLEASE REGISTER ALL CHILDREN SEPARATELY.
