Exemplary
Each family of a child with special needs receives the support of professionals who coordinate to provide educational and therapeutic services, advocacy, emotional support, and the resources to help families navigate their challenges. Our ultimate goal is to provide the support families need to help their children be the best they can be.
Early
The mission is to provide services of the highest quality for children with and without special developmental needs, ages birth through five. Babies and young children grow, learn and develop rapidly when they receive attention, encouragement, mental stimulation, and nutritious meals.
Education
Infant, toddler, and preschool classrooms prepare children for kindergarten with a curriculum that provides a strong foundation. The first five years of a child’s life are fundamentally important. They are the foundation that shapes children’s future health, happiness, growth, development, and learning achievement at school, in the family and community, and in life in general.
