Mission
LEARNING TOGETHER'S CERTIFIED DEVELOPMENTAL DAY CENTER AND COMMUNITY OF RESOURCES EMPOWERS CHILDREN WITH AND WITHOUT DEVELOPMENTAL DELAYS AND THEIR FAMILIES WITH THE TOOLS AND SKILLS ESSENTIAL FOR A LIFE OF LEARNING AND SUCCESS.
Program accomplishments
- THE DEVELOPMENTAL DAY PROGRAM PRESENTS AN INCLUSIVE, EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT FOR CHILDREN AGES 18 MONTHS TO FIVE YEARS OLD WITH, OR AT RISK FOR, DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES AS WELL AS FOR CHILDREN TYPICALLY DEVELOPING. THE OBJECTIVE OF THE SCHOOL IS THAT EACH CHILD, NO MATTER WHERE THEY MAY FALL ON THE LEARNING SPECTRUM, WILL RECEIVE THE FOUNDATION THEY NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL AND REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL. THE DEVELOPMENTAL DAY PROGRAM IS LICENSED AS A FIVE-STAR CENTER, THE HIGHEST RATING POSSIBLE THROUGH THE NORTH CAROLINA DIVISION OF CHILD DEVELOPMENT AND EARLY EDUCATION.LEARNING TOGETHER ALSO PLACES GREAT VALUE IN ESTABLISHING RELATIONSHIPS WITH FAMILIES. WE ARE USUALLY THE FIRST ENTRY INTO PRESCHOOL SERVICES FOR SOME FAMILIES, WHICH ALSO MEANS WE ARE THE ENTRY POINT FOR PARENTS WITH CHILDREN WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DELAYS INTO THE WAKE COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM (WCPSS). PARENTS ARE LEARNING HOW TO NAVIGATE THE SPECIAL EDUCATION SYSTEM, WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY LEARNING HOW TO RAISE A CHILD(REN) WITH A UNIQUE SET OF NEEDS. LEARNING TOGETHER PARTNERS WITH THESE PARENTS TO IDENTIFY WHAT IS DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE FOR THEIR CHILD(REN) AND OVERCOME THESE CHALLENGES WITH SUCCESSFUL AND PROVEN TECHNIQUES. SINCE WE BEGAN SERVING CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN 1969, LEARNING TOGETHER HAS MAINTAINED A REPUTATION AS A PROGRAM THAT EMBRACES INCLUSION IN THE CLASSROOM. LEARNING TOGETHER TAKES GREAT PRIDE IN PROVIDING EDUCATIONAL SERVICES FOR ALL CHILDREN THROUGH THE USE OF DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE PRACTICES BY CREATING A CARING COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS, TEACHING TO ENHANCE DEVELOPMENT AND LEARNING, PLANNING CURRICULUM TO ACHIEVE IMPORTANT GOALS, ASSESSING CHILDREN'S DEVELOPMENT AND LEARNING, AND ESTABLISHING RECIPROCAL RELATIONSHIPS WITH FAMILIES. STUDENTS WHO ARE GIVEN THE ADVANTAGE OF ATTENDING A PRE-KINDERGARTEN (PRE-K) PROGRAM DEVELOP MUCH NEEDED EMOTIONAL, ACADEMIC, AND SOCIAL SKILLS THEY MAY OTHERWISE LACK WHEN ENTERING KINDERGARTEN. STUDENTS WHO DEVELOP SELF-REGULATION SKILLS GAIN CONFIDENCE AS THEY MASTER ACADEMIC CONCEPTS, AND LEARN TO COOPERATE WITH THEIR PEERS IN PRE-K WILL BE FAR BETTER PREPARED TO ENTER KINDERGARTEN. THIS IS PARTICULARLY TRUE FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE ALREADY AT A DISADVANTAGE IN ANY OR ALL OF THESE AREAS. WE ARE COMMITTED TO "CHANGING THE CLASSROOM TODAY TO CHANGE THE WORKPLACE TOMORROW".Expenses $1,428,547 · revenue $1,398,981
