Oct 08, 2024
FRESNO, Calif. (KSEE/KGPE) - A ribbon-cutting ceremony is set to take place at Fresno City College to celebrate the college's new Child Development Center.
According to officials, the center will be located on the corner of University and Blackstone avenues, across from Ratcliffe Stadium. The two-story, 22,000-square-foot building will house programs in early education and childcare services.
The building includes a commercial kitchen for meal preparation to serve breakfast and lunch to children and observation rooms that allow students to observe teaching activities without disturbing the toddler and preschool classes.
Officials say there are also several outdoor playground spaces for the children to play and explore.
The building, college officials say, separates the childcare spaces and faculty officers for childcare program teachers and faculty. All childcare, student observation spaces and commercial kitchen functions occupy the first floor, while college classrooms, faculty offices, break rooms and meeting rooms occupy the second floor.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony will be held on Friday at 10 a.m. at the corner of University and Blackstone avenues.
