Columbus State Community College and The Child Development Council of Franklin County, Inc. (CDCFC) held a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the Center for Early Learning, located at 320 N. Grant Ave., to mark its completion and the commencement of enrollment in the child care center.
Families with infants through 5-year-olds can now enroll at the center through CDCFC, the operator. The center will serve parents who are Columbus State students, college employees, and members of the broader community. The Center for Early Learning opened for business in early May and is actively enrolling for the college’s summer semester.
“This is an innovative partnership between Columbus State and CDCFC in service of a critical community need,” said Columbus State Executive Vice President Rebecca Butler. “Columbus State’s investment in a leading-edge early childhood center, and our partnership with the Child Development Council is a step forward to address our region’s child care crisis. The center will be an affordable resource for students, employees, and residents looking for high-quality child care.”
Columbus State designed the facility to be integrated with its Early Childhood Development Education program, enabling students and faculty to engage with the center for learning and innovation purposes. The Center for Early Learning is launching with 94 initial openings for weekday enrollment, with discounted costs available based on a family’s income. Three classrooms are for infant-to-toddler and three for pre-K instruction, including one-way viewing rooms for clinical and academic observation.
