Ready for School
Children who attend a quality preschool, nursery schools, educational learning program, childcare center or family childcare before starting kindergarten, enter school with a head start. Language, literacy and math skills, alongside important social skills developed in these setting such as listening to peers and adults, waiting your turn, and following directions give children the foundation they will need to be ready to learn, and ultimately, to become successful students and productive citizens.
