Hello and welcome to ECFE winter programs ,
As we were preparing this catalog for publication , Early Childhood Family Education ( ECFE ) programs were transitioning to distance learning along with elementary schools to work to keep our families and staff as safe as possible . At this time , the district is considering options to bring preschool , kindergarten , first and second grade students back into school , possibly before other students would be allowed back in person through the hybrid model . With the unknowns surrounding the learning model , program fees for winter semester will be waived for most class offerings .
The Early Childhood Family Education ( ECFE ) mission is to strengthen families through education and support of all parents by providing the best possible environment for the healthy growth and development of their children . It is important to ECFE staff that we continue to provide high quality learning experiences and opportunities to safely connect with children and families - both online and in-person , when we are able .
