Young children learn new skills and information at amazing rates. When learning opportunities increase, there is a greater mastery of skills leading to higher levels of school success. Children, Inc. and three school districts in Northern Kentucky to come together to increase learning time for preschoolers to a full day of preschool education. New full day preschool programs will open in August of the 2008-09 school year at: ·
Walton-Verona Elementary ·
Alexandria Educational Center ·
Cline Elementary School ·
River Ridge Elementary In concert with these school districts, Children, Inc. will offer the other half of their preschool day plus extended care before and after the school day to accommodate working parents. When school is not in session, Children, Inc. will continue to offer full day preschool with extended care during the summer, holidays, snow days, and professional days. The curriculum will be aligned with each school's curriculum and with the Kentucky Early Childhood Standards. The classrooms will be well-equipped with high quality learning materials and children will interact each day with credentialed, well-trained staff. These programs will earn 3 STAR ratings. By using existing school facilities the cost to families will be greatly reduced. The partnership between Children, Inc. and the school districts is an exciting leap forward in the urgent need to prepare all children to succeed in school. The Children, Inc. Early Learning Centers are open during the hours that most working families need- Monday through Friday, 7:00 am - 6:00 pm. Enrollment is open to 3, 4 and 5 year olds who can be successful in a group setting with a teacher:student ratio of 1:10. Priority enrollment is given to children enrolled in each district’s preschool program. Sliding scale fees are available to qualifying families through Kentucky’s Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) and the United Way of Greater Cincinnati. |
