Oskaloosa Early Childhood Education Center – Vision Becoming Reality
New Mahaska County YMCA Project
The new Early Childhood Education and Recreation Center, being built at 1521 Green Street, will open in less than a year. When that happens it will bring the YMCA indoor recreation programs and early childhood education programs, now operating out of the former Webster School and Kids Corner buildings, into one facility. The Center will be 88,000 square feet, with a third of the area being dedicated to early childhood education.
The Center will have secure entrances for childcare that allow for a separate pickup and drop off, and will provide 20 classrooms for children ages birth-5 years old. The classrooms will have modern conveniences that allow teachers to stay in the classrooms and focus on the kids, education and play. There will be a gym dedicated to youth that allows for large motor development, and outdoor playgrounds focused on imaginative play.
