Cleaning Protocols
Maintaining cleanliness is essential in creating a safe learning environment. At Learning Tree Academy, we have established specific cleaning protocols that are adhered to daily. Our staff sanitizes classrooms, play areas, and restrooms frequently to prevent the spread of germs and illnesses. During cold and flu seasons, we enhance our cleaning routines to further protect the health of all children and staff. We also encourage good hygiene practices among the children, teaching them the importance of washing hands and keeping personal spaces clean.
Nutrition Practices
We understand that good nutrition is vital for healthy growth and development. At Learning Tree Academy, we provide a balanced menu of nutritious meals and snacks, accommodating dietary restrictions and allergies.

Illness and Attendance Policies
Our health policies reflect our commitment to maintaining a healthy community. To minimize the spread of illness, we follow strict attendance guidelines. Children must be fever-free and symptom-free for 24 hours before returning to the center after illness. We ask parents to monitor their child's health daily and communicate any changes to our staff. This proactive approach ensures the well-being of individual children and the entire academy.
Child Safety Monitoring
Active monitoring of child safety is a continuous process at Learning Tree Academy. Our ratio of students to teachers meets state regulations, allowing for individualized attention and care. Educators are trained to maintain a secure environment, regularly watching over children during indoor and outdoor activities. Additionally, our emergency protocols are practiced regularly, ensuring our team is prepared to respond effectively in case of an emergency.
