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. 410452 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 9 8 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 X JEANETTE RAMOS 6022241741 2850 N 24TH STREET PHOENIX AZ 85008 GINGER WARD DIRECTOR/SWHD CEO 2.00 50.00 X X 0 238999 13889 KAREN RAMOS BOARD CHAIR 1.00 5.00 X X 0 0 0 OMAR SAIF TREASURER 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 CHRISTOPHER THOMAS SECRETARY 1.00 1.00 X X 0 0 0 CHRISTINE NOWACZYK DIRECTOR 1.00 1.00 X 0 0 0 DENISE ANDRIELLO-HIGGINS DIRECTOR 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 GEORGE BARNES DIRECTOR 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JENNY MILLER DIRECTOR 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JESSIE RASMUSSEN DIRECTOR 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DR ARLENE KENNEDY DIRECTOR (LEFT 7/2023) 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JEANETTE RAMOS SWHD CFO 1.00 50.00 X 0 176588 18574 0 415587 32463 0 0 1 0 0 197022 197022 21000 0 21000 21000 21000 UTILITIES REIMBURSEMENTS 221000 5196 5196 VENDOR REBATES 900099 943 943 MISCELLANEOUS INCOME 900099 732 732 6871 224893 0 0 27871 X 12230 12230 178840 164689 7341 6810 13442 11221 2221 1469 1469 15388 15388 15 15 213239 213239 TUITION AND TRAINING 5900 5900 EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE 114 114 GOVERNMENT FEES 21 21 440658 410452 23396 6810 217817 235777 27584 28317 50000 25000 300 0 8105239 1120613 7197865 6984626 7493566 7273720 31973 27892 31973 27892 X 7320778 7110427 140815 135401 7461593 7245828 7493566 7273720 -215765 0 X 0 1 X 1 1 1 X 147771 306880 282063 317906 197022 1251642 147771 306880 282063 317906 197022 1251642 172741 1078901 693 -3 3600 15000 21000 40290 -717 20621 6871 26775 1318707 35490 0.81820 0.85960 X SCHEDULE A, PART II, LINE 10, EXPLANATION OF OTHER INCOME: OTHER INCOME - 2021 AMOUNT: $ -717. 2022 AMOUNT: $ 20,621. 2023 AMOUNT: $ 6,871.
