History & Organization
SADOCHOK was the first full-time Ukrainian language preschool in Ontario and was incorporated in 1976 as a non-profit organization under the name of SADOCHOK CENTRE INC. and licensed by the Ministry of Community, Family and Children's Services, Day Nurseries Act, Government of Ontario.
It is also registered as a charitable body and all donations to the preschool are tax deductible. Our facilities are fully and regularly inspected by the Ministry of Health, Fire Department and City of Toronto Public Works. In addition, our property has an on-site fully licensed and inspected playground.
Policies and administration of the preschool are undertaken by a Board of Directors comprising of at least six members elected on a rotational basis for a two-year term by members of the corporation. One parent/guardian per family automatically receives an annual membership, entitling the holder to one vote. The day-to-day operation of SADOCHOK is managed by the Supervisor and the Office Administrator under the direction of the Board of Directors.
The preschool's high standards are maintained through the encouragement of parents/guardians to contribute their time, talents, and commitment either as a member of the Board or the Parents’ Committee.
