About EECC:

  • EECC is the preschool program for Richland-Bean Blossom Community School Corporation.  Students must reside in RBB district.  Students who do not live in RBB district must have an approved transfer request.  Priority is given to all students who reside in RBB district.  If space is still available once all in district students have been placed, out of district transfers will then be considered on a first come, first served basis.
  • Proof of residency will be required upon enrollment and again in August before school begins.  If you move out of district prior to the beginning of the school year, you must apply for a transfer request, which will be considered based on availability.  
  • The state requires a 12:1 student to staff ratio for Pre-K classrooms and a 10:1 ratio for 3 year olds. At EECC our average student to staff ratio is approximately 8:1.
  • EECC is a nationally accredited program through the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
