THE FACTS In the Spring of 2008 there were 6,594

students enrolled in class at NWACC. Of those 6,594 students 394 students did not

complete the semester! There were 6,199 students that received an

A, B, C, D of an F. These students include those who missed the drop date and quit coming to class.

We are a group of students that has recognized the need for an on-site daycare at NWACC.

It is our mission to make this project a reality

OUR GOALS Childcare will no longer be a problem for

students who are parents. Enrollment, student retention and student

success will increase. This facility will be unutilized by not only

students but faculty and staff as well. Childcare will provide more of an opportunity

for students interested in service learning projects and students enrolled in early childhood development classes.
