Doreen Milburn, Director of Early Childhood Programs for the Northshore School District was our featured speaker today.

Doreen talked about the program’s growth and challenges over the past few years. Once of the major issues is available space for the program. The outcomes of these interventions are striking in terms of the differences that are being made for children and their families.

The mission statement is as follows: We believe in the uniqueness and individual worth of every child and strive to help all children reach their highest developmental potential. We nurture in children a love for lifelong learning and value families as partners in education.

The preschool and kindergarten years are among the most critical in a child’s life to influence learning. The Northshore School District is committed to providing the support that our youngest students need to prepare them to succeed later in school. The district offers a variety of Early Childhood Programs for children age three to five. In addition, the district contracts with Development Centers to provide services to children age birth to three who qualify for specially design instruction.
