Jeffco Early Learning Vision
Expanding Early Childhood Education is a focus of the Jeffco Public Schools vision and aligned strategic plan. We believe our school district will fully achieve its goals through the simultaneous focus on the intentional provision and quality of early childhood education in Jeffco. Quality early childhood education is much more than just childcare. It is an academically and developmentally focused experience that provides students with early literacy and numeracy skills, as well as authentic learning experiences, so they come to kindergarten ready to learn. A system of early childhood education already exists in Jeffco, but (like most places in the United States), it is a patchwork of different government organizations, nonprofits, private providers, churches, family/friends, and neighbor care.
