How many children are at the centers and how many openings occur each year?
ECEP centers vary in size from only 16 children at the historic Girton Hall to the new Haste Street Center which has capacity for 78 children. Classroom size ranges from 6 to 28 children based on age of children and the physical space. Most preschool rooms have 16-25 children enrolled, while an infant room is likely to have 6-9 babies enrolled. Rooms with toddlers may vary between 8-12 children. Although spaces can become available at any time due to vacancy, January, June, and mid-August are the most typical times for enrollment. Most spaces open for new children in August.
