The SRU/SGA Preschool and Child Care Center is a nationally accredited, state licensed, non-profit center which is owned by the Slippery Rock Student Government Association, Inc. Since the Center is licensed by the Department of Human Services and the Department of Education, and accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, all staff members are required to meet strict regulations regarding training and experience.

In addition to a professional staff, the Center provides a rich variety of learning experiences for children. The Center's program is designed to promote the affective, cognitive, communicative, perceptual-motor, physical, and social development of the child. We seek to provide each child with a safe, secure, happy environment and to provide each parent with the knowledge and security that his/her child is being given excellent care.

Morning Drop Off Times: 7:00am, any time between 7:30am and 8:30am.

Afternoon Pick Up Times: 2:00pm, 4:00pm, 5:00pm, and 6:00pm

In anticipation of the new year, the SRU/SGA Preschool and Child Care Center Staff were excited to work with William Humes, Executive Director at West Deer EMS and First Link Safety Training, to be certified in Pediatric CPR, AED, and First Aid.  

Karen Riley, Slippery Rock University’s first-year president, continues her regular visits with campus groups, including a visit to the SRU/SGA Preschool and Child Care Center, Oct. 20.
