An important part of our curriculum includes intergenerational programming. This type of program provides older adults and children with many opportunities to interact in the classroom and throughout our campus. Intergenerational activities will benefit both the children and older adults by offering mutual opportunities to help and be helped, teach and be taught, love and be loved. 

Intergenerational programs are designed in accordance with the guidelines established by the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS). Because we respect the right of the individual, participation is encouraged, but is voluntary. At the time of enrollment, permission slips are signed by families, allowing their children to participate in the intergenerational programs.
