Everyone has something to gain through CHILD CARE Children's voices and laughter mingled with the every day sounds of college life as the new Child Care Center, located in the Penka building, became operational. Director of the center was Shelia Cole. She operated her own day care center in Lakin before coming to GCCC. Cole's feelings about the new center were optimistic, I never worry about things not jiving. Directing the center is much easier than having my own business, Cole said. The college takes care of most of the paperwork and all of the payroll for employees, so I can look forward to direc- ting my attention to the children, Cole stated. The center was established to serve several purposes: to meet the child care needs of student-parentsg as a place- ment center for practicum students in early childhood education, and as an observa- tion site for students enrolled in Home Economics. 'Tm very anxious to get this program rolling with the students in early child development, Cole said. We Follow the leader-Day Care children take advantage of the nice weather and participate in their own version of follow the leader. Super- visor LaVelda Young looks on. 80 Day CarelAcademics are not in competition with the local centers. We are here primarily for the students, she stressed. According to Edie jones, home economics instructor, the center is beautiful sup- port for the parents and it's great for academics. We really have a multi-faceted oppor- tunity here, jones said. We can help the students in several ways through the center. The program was open to children age two and a half through six years who have not yet entered the first grade. The environment of the children's area is very bright and happy, Cole said. We have colored bins for each child's belongings and they love to look at their photographs that we have mounted on the back of our door, Cole related. We also keep a growth chart for the children so that they can keep track of their own physical stature, Cole said. They get so excited when their mark gets a little higher, she added. The first group of children left their mark at the college when they were allowed to place their handprints in the newly poured cement around the center. Cole's assistants at the center were LaVelda Young and Barbara Moore. The center staff also included two Early Childhood Education majors, Karla Millershaski and Stacy Lenertz. We only have an average of 13 children a day here out of a possible 20, but it's enough to keep us all busy, Cole said. We have a fairly busy schedule for the children so there's not much idle time, she added. Everyone has something to gain through this program, she said.
