ELRC Region 5 offers Communities of Practice (COP) for early learning professionals to discuss topics of interest, current trends in the field, and offer insight and inspiration to one another.
In August, ELRC Region 5 Quality Coaches will host an in-depth discussion for Allegheny County early learning program and child care owners, directors, and teaching staff around strengthening relationships with their local school partners. Early Childhood and School Age Professionals will have the opportunity to reflect on their current practices in partnering with their local school district to support children and families with kindergarten transition into public school and foster continuity of care between their early learning program/before and after school program and public school. They will also explore various strategies in developing and maintaining their partnerships with their local school professionals to better serve the families and children in their care. Participants will create a plan to build linkages and begin implementing this practice into their program. 1.5 PQAS credit hours will be available.
Registration is required for this session.
