History of Tigard Covenant Preschool and Daycare (TCPD)
Tigard Covenant Preschool and Daycare began in the spring of 2015 when Tigard Covenant
Church desired to see a preschool and daycare operating in the church. The church reached out
to Whitney Vinegar and Courtney Temple as their experience, qualifications, and personalities
matched what the church envisioned for TCPD's leaders.
Philosophy and Curriculum
TCPD will always strive to provide a loving environment for every child. We will care for your
children ensuring that they grow and flourish during their time with us. Our small class sizes
and strong curriculum will help them to build their love for learning while encouraging each
child to discover their gifting in Christ.
Our scriptural foundation for TCPD is Proverbs 22:6 (NKJV) "Train up a child in the way he
should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it."
We will train up your children, entrusted to us, in their faith, their gifting, and their academic
studies. We will help them build a strong foundation as they build their relationship with Christ
and develop into strong, creative and constructive youth.
For our curriculum at TCPD, we use "Fruitful Spirit". This is a comprehensive, research-based
curriculum that aligns with the Common Core Standards and the Bible to ensure that all
children are prepared for their journey to Kindergarten with a strong educational and spiritual
foundation. The "Fruitful Spirit" curriculum includes lesson plans, printables, and supportive
ideas to guide your child's learning and help our teachers be intentional throughout each and
every day.
Staff Qualifications
All of TCPD staff must be qualified for the position they are fulfilling with education and
experience according to the "Rules for Certified Child Care Centers" from Oregon Employment
Department Child Care Division. Our staff go through multiple interviews, must complete a
background check, and have all required trainings to work in a child care setting such as CPR &
First Aid, Recognizing and Reporting Child Abuse Training, and Food Handlers License. Our staff
also annually participates in professional development courses to further their education for
early childhood development.

Confidentiality
The confidentiality of TCPD's children and families is very important and vital to fostering a
respectful and strong community. Communication about TCPD children amongst staff and
parents must be kept confidential at all times. If you need to speak with a staff member
regarding a TCPD child, incident, or behavior, please set up a time with the staff member via e-
mail or in person to speak in private regarding your comments, questions, or concerns.
Communication
At TCPD we believe communication between our staff, children, and families is fundamental to
a successful and positive learning environment for all.

TCPD General Information
We communicate with our families in a variety of ways, but primarily all information is sent via
e-mail, so please ensure your e-mail is current and you are checking it regularly. Other ways we
communicate with our families include:
Letters sent home in your child's backpack
TCPD Website
Phone
Classroom Information
Our teachers will communicate classroom happenings through the following:
Daily activity timeline through our software system

Monthly newsletters posted outside of the classroom door as well as sent to parent's via
Don't forget to check your child's backpack for any notes, activities, or projects for your
child at the end of the day.
Child Specific Information
During arrival and dismissal times our teachers are needing to give full attention to their
students to ensure a smooth transition into and out of the classroom. Please keep
conversations with our teachers brief. If you need to discuss specific information please
write a note for the teacher or send them an e-mail and they will respond as soon as
possible.
If, at any time, you have any questions, comments, or concerns about your child, please
contact your child's teacher via e-mail. Our teachers do not accept phone calls directly
during the day, however, you are more than welcome to call our office to relay
messages to our teachers and they will contact you back as soon as possible.
If you need to discuss any information in great length please let your child's teacher
know via e-mail and you can set up a time to speak over the phone or in person, if
needed.
As previously noted, the privacy of every child and TCPD family member is extremely
important to us. Because of this, please do not discuss any child/family specific
problems or concerns in front of any TCPD child (including your own) or parent.
Please let your child's teacher know of any changes in the home (ex. parent out of town
or family member sick or in hospital) as these changes could change their behavior and
7
performance in the classroom. As a reminder, TCPD staff will always respect your
privacy.
Please inform the office if your child is going to be absent for any reason. We need to
be able to communicate any information with your child's teacher as well as document
any information privately such as sickness. Also, your child's classmates and teachers
will miss your child and want to know that everything is okay.
Admissions
TCPD follows the Oregon State Early Childhood Education Guidelines for enrollment age and
will be placed in classes according to their age as of September 1st. Children who will be turning
age five after September 1st, thus ineligible for Kindergarten in public schools, may enroll at
TCPD. Children are not discriminated against for any reason including race, gender, religion
or national origin.
We strongly encourage all children to visit our facility before starting in our programs so that
they are familiar with their new surroundings. All enrollment forms must be filled out and
completed as well as enrollment fees/deposits paid prior to the start date decided upon in your
contract.
Preschool and Daycare Programs
Preschool Program:
There are three preschool programs to choose from for your child: Monday - Friday Program,
Monday/Wednesday/Friday Program, or Tuesday/Thursday Program. All preschool programs
take place from 8:30am to 11:30am.
Daycare Program:
Daycare takes place Monday - Friday, 6:30am to 6pm. Daycare tuition plans are billed bi-weekly
at a flat rate based off of an hourly charge for how many hours (minimum 4) your child(ren) will
be in care. Your days/hours must remain the same each week unless an arrangement has been
made before the upcoming pay period with the director and/or administrator (vacation, family
time, etc). If your child is preschool aged they must be in a preschool program if needing care
between 8:30am - 11:30am during the school year. We do not allow pick up or drop offs
between 12pm and 2pm. If your drop off time is 12pm please understand that your child needs
8
to arrive fed and ready for nap as school nap time is between 12pm and 2pm and lunch time is
over. If there is a special circumstance that requires a pick up time between 12pm and 2pm that
must be pre-arranged and please understand we will still lay your child down for nap until they
are picked up from care.
After School Program
After school program takes place Monday-Friday from 2:30pm to 6pm. It is available to all
children in the Tigard-Tualatin school district. After school program includes reading/homework

monthly basis. This includes AM care as well for the children who can be taken to the bus stop.

get to and from TCPD, in which case we have a staff member meet the children at the bus stop.

Behavioral Expectations of TCPD Children
We expect the children of TCPD to be respectful, safe, and responsible. We will encourage and
guide your child to make smart decisions that benefit and support themselves and their
classmates.
We follow The Golden Rule, "Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you." (Matt
7:12 NLT) We will expect that all children know and understand that everyone deserves to be
treated well and with respect.
Entering a preschool and/or daycare can be a big step for any child, regardless of age. We
understand that as children grow they discover new ways to express themselves and
sometimes in ways that are not respectful, safe, and responsible. As educators, we know we
are teaching not just academics, but social skills as well. We will work with every child to ensure
success, however, in order to ensure a safe, comfortable learning environment for all students,
TCPD reserves the right to withdraw any child if he/she exhibits consistent behavioral
incompatibility with our program.
11
Discipline Policy
At TCPD we believe that children need and desire structure and clear expectations. We also
believe that children deserve respect and to be heard. We will always communicate our
expectations to TCPD children so that the children understand why they are being disciplined.
We will ensure that when we discipline children we are at eye level and truly seek to
understand what your child has to say to determine the appropriate consequences for the
actions/behaviors displayed. We know and understand that children go through many stages of
social learning and that every child is different. Discipline will be handled on an individual basis
for the child(ren) involved.
Under no circumstances will there be any physical, verbal, or mental abuse used to discipline
your child. We may physically redirect your child (both hands gently guiding shoulders of child
in opposite direction of concern) if they are causing harm to themselves or other children.
We will be sure to involve parents if any disciplinary action has been taken with their children
and it will be recorded in the student's file.
Developmental Classroom Rules and Consequences
Overall, TCPD strives to be respectful, safe and responsible for our students and staff. We will
always strive to create a positive environment for all children even in the midst of discipline.
Our rules will be reviewed daily so the students understand and learn what is expected of
them:
1. We listen to others when they are talking
2. We are nice to others and use kind words and actions
3. We put our toys and materials away after using them
4. We keep our hands and feet to ourselves
5. We walk and use quiet voices in the hallways
We implement the following for stages of discipline:
Stage One: staff will talk to the child and give a verbal reminder or redirection
Stage Two: warning will be given as well as another verbal reminder or redirection
Stage Three: Time out/Thinking chair away from other children. Parents will be notified
in writing at the end of the day.
Aggressive behavior such as hitting, kicking, biting, or throwing things at others will result in an
automatic Stage Three disciplinary action. If needed, they will be removed from the classroom
until the child can calm down and parents of all children will be notified.
12
Things to keep in mind if a biting incident occurs with your child:
WHY DO KIDS BITE?
Young children have not fully mastered the skill of communication. They are unable to tell you how they feel and get really frustrated. They lack the verbal skills they need to express themselves.
Biting is a very powerful release of frustration, leadership, or anger. Most children stop biting around the age of 3, when they are better able to acquire their
verbal skills. Biting often results from frustration. Toddler hood is frustrating as toddlers learn new
physical and social skills. They could be teething. A child may be hungry or tired. They lack good judgment when they are either of these. They may have seen another child do it and want to try it too. They know it gets a great reaction, and use it as a way to express leadership. Maybe an adult has bit or nibbled them during play. A child does not know his own
strength and thinks that he/she is playing when they bite. When in fact, they are actually harming them.
They have never been corrected for doing this in the past.
As a reminder, privacy will be respected in disciplinary situations to protect the children
involved. All staff will ensure that any aggressive behavior is handled in a calm manner and we
will strive to work with the child and his/her parent(s) to develop a plan for the future. If all
possible plans for the behavior have been implemented and have been unsuccessful, TCPD
reserves the right to un-enroll the child.
What to Bring
Please ensure that ALL items sent with your child are labeled with their first and last name. If
finances are a concern for any item listed below, please contact our office.
Every child must turn in a VIPBag (Very Important Personal Bag) at the beginning of the school
year. This is a part of our emergency protocol (see below in Emergency Protocols). The VIPBag
must be a gallon size Ziploc bag that contains 1 change of clothes for the season including
underwear(or diaper) and socks and comfort items such as a family photo, favorite soft toy,
small activity, or book. Each classroom has a backpack that will hold all students VIPBags in case
of emergency. Also we have a no shoe policy inside of the classrooms. You are welcome to send
slippers or special fuzzy socks for your child to wear in the classroom.

School-Aged
As your child will be coming from school we will ensure that they take time to complete any
homework assignments for the day so please make sure your child has what they need to do so
from their school. Each child needs to have a book in their backpack to read during homework
time, if they do not have work to complete. They can also bring a fun activity if they would like,
but we will have activities for them to participate in as well.
Celebrating Birthdays
At TCPD we love celebrating the reason we exist and that is because your child was born! We
will have a calendar that displays all children's birthdays for the month. If your child's birthday
falls on a day they are at TCPD we will ensure we sing "Happy Birthday".
We welcome parents/special guests to attend our birthday celebrations by contacting the
child's teacher to coordinate the celebration needs. If you choose to attend and want to bring
something special for your child, we ask that you bring or lead a fun game for the class to play.
If you choose to bring a treat please ensure there are no peanuts in it and it must be store
bought.
Food at TCPD
Snacks Provided - Send lunch with your child
You must send lunch for your child if they are in care with us during lunch time, 11:30am -
12pm. You can send breakfast, lunch, or snacks with your child if you want. We also provide
snacks between meals to ensure all children are eating every 2.5 - 3 hours. All of our
meals/snacks meet or exceed the expectations of USDA and our meals are inspired by options
that you can find at www.choosemyplate.gov. As a State Licensed facility we are required to
offer whole milk to toddlers and preschoolers. You are required to bring a serving of the milk of
15
your choice for your child to drink. Any food that you send must be prepared ready to eat. As
we do not have a licensed kitchen, we cannot prepare food (cutting, peeling, cooking, etc). We
are able to heat food in a microwave and that is all.
If your child has any severe food allergies such as gluten or other nut intolerance please be
advised that our facility is shared with the church and we cannot ensure that gluten or nuts (or
any other allergen) have not cross contaminated our prepared food. Because of this you should
send meals/snacks with your child and we can keep them separate from other food for your
child's safety.
Arrival and Dismissal
Arrival:
Due to staffing, you cannot leave your child with us earlier than your contracted time. Please
take your child to the restroom to help them wash their hands and then check in your child.
Parents and children must remove outdoor shoes before entering the classroom. Teachers will
take your child from you after checking them in and washing their hands to keep arrival moving
swiftly. If separating becomes an ongoing issue please speak to your child's teacher to develop
a plan for how to best negotiate departure. We have found with difficult departures that it is
best for your child if you leave the first time you say goodbye and make it quick so that we can
transition them into the class easier. Please do your best to be on time so that your child may
participate in all activities and so it does not disrupt the other children as they have already
transitioned from home to school.
Departure:
Please be on time. Pick up time for preschool starts each day at 11:30am. Pick up time for
daycare is dependent upon your contracted time (if your child is scheduled 7 am to 3 pm, your
pick up time would be 3pm). Your account will be assessed, for both preschool and daycare, $1
for each minute late, following a 5 minute grace period. After 3 occurrences of being late past
the 5 minute grace period, you no longer have a grace period and late fees occur immediately
following your scheduled pick up time.
Unless previously arranged, we ask that you do not enter the preschool classrooms sooner than
11:30am so that all children may focus on making sure that their space is neat and tidy before
departing.
16
For the safety of your child, we will NOT release your child to any person(s) who is not listed on
your child's enrollment form. Please be prepared at the time of enrollment. It's better to add
extra names to your child's enrollment form for pick up if you are unable to be there than to
have your child waiting. If you need to add names at any time, please deliver a handwritten and
signed note to our office for your child's file. In case of true emergencies, call our office right
away to arrange pick up for your child.
Immunization Requirements
By law, all children must complete an Oregon Immunization form to attend TCPD. You can get
this documentation from your child's doctor and must do so within the 12 months prior to the
start of each school year. These forms are the responsibility of the parent(s) and are to be
turned in prior to your child's first day with us.
Illness and Injury
ILLNESS
It is to be expected that, at some point, children will contract bacterial infections, viruses,
and/or other illnesses. As your child's parent we ask that you honestly determine the health of
your child before bringing them to our facility. Sickness spreads quickly in a child care facility
and we will always do our part to support the health of our children and we ask that you do
your part as well.
In accordance with the Oregon Department of Education we cannot admit your child into any of
our programs if they have any of the following symptoms of illness:
Fever over 100 degrees F (must be fever free for minimum 24 hours before returning)
Diarrhea (more than one abnormally loose, runny, watery, or bloody stool)
Vomiting
Nausea
Severe Cough
Unusual yellow color to skin or eyes
Skin or eye lesions or rashes that are severe, weeping, or pus-filled
Stiff neck and headache with one or more of the symptoms listed above
17
Difficult breathing or abnormal wheezing
Complaints of severe pain
Any child who shows signs of any illness listed above shall be removed from their classroom.
Parent(s) will be notified immediately to arrange pick up as soon as possible. If we cannot reach
any parent we will then contact the child's emergency contacts to arrange pick up.
If your child has been exposed to a communicable disease, we ask that you notify us promptly
of the exposure (i.e. Chicken Pox, Conjunctivitis, Strep Throat, Head Lice, Impetigo,
Hand/Foot/Mouth) for the health safety of all TCPD children and staff. Your child must remain
at home for one week minimum at which time we will require a doctor's note for your child to
return to TCPD. We will notify all parents promptly of any exposure to communicable diseases
at TCPD.
If a child has mild cold symptoms that do not impair his/her functioning, the child may remain
in the center and the parent(s) notified when they pick up their child.
INJURY
At TCPD we do our best to ensure that your children are surrounded with a fun and safe
environment, however, we know despite our best efforts, that a child may get injured.
Communication is extremely important to us, therefore, any injury, small or large, will result in
immediate parent notification via our software system and documentation in the child's file.
If a child's injury results in needing CPR/First Aid and/or taken to the hospital by ambulance, we
will act quickly and calmly to get your child's needs met and contact you via phone as soon as
possible.
Inclement Weather Policy
TCPD will follow Washington County public school's schedule for inclement weather. Please
listen to radio or television stations for school closure announcements. If you miss these, you
may call TCPD's office number. We will notify parents via e-mail no later than 6am on the day of
any closures due to inclement weather.
18
Emergency Protocols
TCPD has developed their emergency protocols with the help of local law enforcement and
Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue. We do run emergency drills (fire, earthquake, etc) routinely
that follow rules set by the Oregon Office of Childcare. For the security of TCPD's children and
staff, we will go over our emergency protocols in person in the final enrollment meeting with
parents.
Volunteer Opportunities
Looking to volunteer at TCPD? We would love to have you! All of our volunteers must pass
through Oregon's Central Background Registry. If you are already in the CBR please give us your
CBR# and we will ensure it is current and you do not need to fill out another application.

http://www.oregon.gov/OCC/Pages/On-line_application_informationpage.aspx
After your application is complete and you receive your CBR# in the mail, contact our office and
let us know so that we can schedule an interview and then volunteer orientation.
Donations and Fundraising
If you are wanting to donate items or monetary gifts to TCPD please contact our office and we
will arrange for you to do so. TCPD is a non-profit and so any donation is 100% tax deductible
and we will be able to give a donation letter for your tax purposes.
TCPD will do fundraisers from time to time to assist with our facility's needs. Information on any
fundraiser will be posted on our welcome board and in our monthly newsletters sent home
with your child.
