Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service and Tarleton State University are proud to host the 2017 Child Care Conference on September 9.  The theme “Up, Up & Away: Soaring Beyond the Minimum Standards” will focus on fun activities and resources to help child care staff go beyond the minimum standards of child care.

This year, the conference will offer different tracks for child care staff to attend: Infants/Toddlers, Preschool, School Age, and Director/Owner.  Each track will focus on fun activities, guidance and discipline, learning, and developmental needs for the specific age groups.  Conference participants will also get some hands-on experience with activities and fun snack ideas.

The 2017 Child Care Conference will be held Saturday, September 9, 2017, from 7:30 a.m. – 1:45 p.m. in the Science Building on the campus of Tarleton State University.  The cost of the conference is $30, and registration is due by August 28, 2017.  Six clock hours of in-service training will be given to participants, and six CEUs will be offered for an additional $10 per person.  Click on the picture below to register today!
