Guadalupe School's first three programs all fall within the Early Learning Center. Our organization's mission is to transform lives through education, and part of that is through taking a holistic approach to educating and creating environments of literacy and success. Our Early Learning programs allow children to start receiving instruction and assistance from infancy, and allow their parents to be vital parts of their growth and development from day one. The first program is In-Home, where parent educators make personal visits to the homes of up 48 families. Educators provide parents with training, do child developmental screenings, and make community resource referrals. They help parents become their children's most influential teacher and build their children's intellectual, lingual, social, and physical development from birth to age three. Toddler Beginnings, the second Early Learning program, follows seamlessly after In-Home. This program serves two-year-olds, whose parents would like them to spend part time in a classroom setting throughout the week, experiencing a hands-on, activities-based curriculum that focuses on preschool readiness. Teaching is targeted to all areas of child development, and instructors hold bachelor's degrees or Child Development Associate certificates. Class size is limited to 15 children, with a 1:5 adult to child ratio, to ensure that each student receives the individualized attention they need. The final program in the Early Learning Center is our half-day, Monday-Thursday Preschool. This program serves up to 80 three and four-year-olds, and also targets both academic preparatory skills for kindergarten readiness and child development. Students are taught in small group settings, enjoy outdoor exploration time, and choose learning centers set up to spark accelerated thinking. Teachers hold bachelor's in Early Childhood Education or the equivalent, and teach in classrooms with a 1:7 adult to child ratio.
