By meeting the needs of the “whole child” we ensure that all children are prepared for kindergarten entrance.All of our PPS Early Childhood classrooms operate for 6-hours a day. During that time all children are exposed to a research-based, high quality curriculum that is aligned to the PA Early Learning Standards and receive instruction individually, in small groups, and in whole group settings. Our children also have opportunities to receive specialized services in the classroom through our contracted providers or Early Intervention (as needed), to socialize with peers, and receive breakfast & lunch daily.To learn more about Early Childhood, visit www.pghschools.org/earlychildhood
