Importance of Early Childhood Education

Early Childhood Education is often a program that is overlooked. I believe you can make the argument that it is actually the most important program any school could ever have.

The earlier that children are identified for special assistance, the better. It just makes sense that occupational and speech therapy are more beneficial on a 4 year old than they are on a 7 year old. Identification leads to action.

Pre-school offers an enriching environment where youngsters are immersed in a stimulating and print rich classroom. They must learn to work with others and to operate within structured boundaries.

York Public Schools remains committed to our Early Childhood programming. Building strong relationships with parents is a vital part of what we try to do.

We are proud of our partnership with York County Head Start. We will continue to look at ways to expand our offerings for 0-5 year olds.

Go Dukes!
