Imagine...
... a school that recognizes that learning
begins early and helps prepare children for school,
before they enter kindergarten, through full-day, year-round
early care and education programs and partnerships with
local child care providers.
... a
school that makes the most
of out-of-school time while meeting the needs of today's
working families by offering safe, structured, and stimulating
environments for school-age children when school is
not in session.
... a
school that treats parents
as partners and provides them with information and support
to be the best possible parents they can be, answering
questions about child development for nervous first-time
parents, as well as helping other parents deal with
issues around homework, sibling rivalry, and self-esteem.
... a
school that understands
that children who are healthy, well-fed, and physically
fit can concentrate in class and learn better and promotes
children's wellness through preventive medical and dental
services, mental health services, and improved nutrition
and fitness.
...
a School of the 21st Century.
