Information for Families

"Children’s experiences and the skills and characteristics they develop during the preschool years are critically important to their success later in school. What children learn between birth and the time they start kindergarten lays the foundation for their learning and development for years to come.  

Families are the first and most consistent teachers children experience in their lives...Children will make the most progress when families and teachers work together."
