KOCO TASC Program Contract 2009-10


The primary focus of our TASC programs
is homework completion.  KOCO TASC
students have access to a variety of
resources, including the internet and a
reference library.

After homework has been completed,
students may choose from a variety of
quiet activities;  as ratios allow, groups of
students who have finished homework
may participate in recreational activities.
Children are accompanied by KOCO staff
both before and after school to and from
the bus stop.

The TASC room accommodates two
teachers and up to fifteen children.

A variety of stimulating activities is provided
each day to support the children’s
cognitive, motor and social/emotional
development.

In general, 3rd-5th graders are eligible to
attend TASC at KOCO, and 4th-7th graders
are eligible to attend TASC at the East
Hampton Middle School.  Children are
eligible to attend TASC until their 13th
birthday.
We used toothpicks and mini marshmallows to
build structures during a unit on building.

KOCO’s Philosophy of Child Care

Kids of Chatham Organization, Inc. -- a nonprofit child care center run by a parent Board of Directors -- is
dedicated to providing high quality child care to children ages 8 weeks to 13 years.  Our developmentally
appropriate programs are designed to challenge and enrich children within the structure of a safe and
nurturing environment.  At KOCO, we believe that children learn best through hands-on activities, so a typical
day balances structured “academic” lessons with child-initiated active play and exploration.  In addition, a
formal conflict resolution and character development program is embedded within the curriculum to support
the social/emotional development of our students.  KOCO’s strong ties with the local public library and school
system help us to maintain a dynamic partnership with our local community.  The crucial bond between
daycare and home is likewise strengthened by daily communication and myriad opportunities for families to
visit and volunteer.  We are proud to be celebrating our 20th year as East Hampton’s premier child care facility!
