Located at the Covenant House, La Escuelita are two bilingual classrooms designed to increase the accessibility of early scholastic resources for vulnerable children and provide quality education.
The early years are when children are most receptive to language acquisition. High-quality early childhood programs support the development of language and communication skills, which are fundamental for success in school and beyond. Children who have a strong language foundation are better equipped to express themselves, understand others, and excel academically.
La Escuelita offers high-quality early childhood education and this can help reduce achievement gaps among children from different socioeconomic backgrounds. By providing access to educational opportunities early in life, children from disadvantaged backgrounds have a better chance to succeed academically and break the cycle of poverty.
Early childhood learning programs prepare children for formal education. They introduce basic academic concepts, teach essential pre-reading and math skills, and foster a love of learning. When children enter school with a strong foundation, they are more likely to succeed academically and remain engaged in their education.
Early childhood learning isn't just about academic knowledge. It's also a time when children develop essential social and emotional skills. Interactions with caregivers and peers in a structured learning environment help children learn how to manage their emotions, resolve conflicts, and build healthy relationships, setting the stage for emotional intelligence.
