Organizations Filed Purposes:
EDUCARE ARIZONA'S MISSION IS TO ENSURE VULNERABLE YOUNG CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE SUCCESSFUL IN SCHOOL AND LIFE BY PROVIDING HIGH QUALITY EARLY LEARNING, FAMILY SUPPORT, AND HEALTH CARE WHILE ALSO WORKING TO IMPROVE EARLY CHILDHOOD PRACTICE AND POLICY.
THE EDUCARE PROGRAM IMPLEMENTS THE LATEST SCIENCE, RESEARCH, AND EVIDENCED-BASED PRACTICES TO ENSURE THAT LOW-INCOME INFANTS, TODDLERS, AND PRE-SCHOOL CHILDREN WHO ARE MOST AT RISK FOR ACADEMIC FAILURE BUILD THE SKILLS THEY NEED TO ARRIVE AT KINDERGARTEN SAFE, HEALTHY, EAGER TO LEARN, AND READY FOR SCHOOL. EDUCARE TEACHERS EMPHASIZE THE EQUAL IMPORTANCE OF DEVELOPING CHILDREN'S PRE-LITERACY AND EARLY MATH SKILLS ALONGSIDE THEIR SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL SKILLS. WE INVOLVE FAMILIES IN THEIR CHILDREN'S DEVELOPMENT. ACTIVITIES AND INTERACTIONS AIM TO STRENGTHEN PARENTS' ABILITY TO SERVE AS CHAMPIONS FOR THEIR CHILD'S LEARNING AFTER THEY LEAVE EDUCARE AND ENTER PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS. A UNIQUE COMPONENT OF THE EDUCARE MODEL IS PRACTICING "CONTINUITY OF CARE," MEANING EACH CHILD STAYS WITH THE SAME TEAM OF TEACHERS FROM BIRTH TO AGE THREE. CHILDREN THEN MOVE INTO A PRESCHOOL CLASSROOM FOR STUDENTS THREE TO FIVE YEARS OF AGE WITH A DIFFERENT TEAM OF TEACHERS WHO STAY WITH THEM UNTIL THEY'RE READY TO ENTER KINDERGARTEN. THIS CONTINUITY CREATES CLOSE BONDS AMONG CHILDREN, TEACHERS, AND PARENTS, REINFORCING THE STABLE RELATIONSHIPS ESSENTIAL TO LEARNING. WE KEEP CLASS SIZES SMALL AND TEACHER-CHILD RATIOS LOW TO ENSURE INDIVIDUALIZED CARE AND INSTRUCTION FOR EVERY CHILD WHO ATTENDS OUR SCHOOL.
