Ready, Set, Go
Bringing the Best Together for Our Children
The Purpose of Ready, Set, Go
Children's brains grow more in the first five years of life than in the rest of their lives put together. This time of growth is crucial to the development of our children and the most important part of educational investment to be made. Ready, Set, Go is designed to bring together the early childhood professionals in our community to LEARN through professional development, COLLABORATE together by envisioning and networking together as we INTERVENE early and refer for services so that all children in Hobart can thrive.
Ready, Set, Go is a Cohort of Early Childhood Professionals Elevating the Support, Care and Education of our Youngest Children in Hobart
Learn
As a cohort of professional educators, we have dedicated ourselves to continue to learn right alongside our littlest learners. This will include the following:
- monthly collaborative meetings around a particular learning goal/topic
- monthly newsletters filled with articles, strategies, teacher spotlights and information from the state and local early childhood agencies and professionals
- periodic joint professional conferences with School City of Hobart, Indiana Department of Ed and other professional organizations
Collaborate
Communication and networking is key to our community of learning and families here in the Hobart community. The following are ways that we collaborate and network together:
- Trunk or Treat - our October event where we gather at the Early Learning Center, decorate our trunks and let the community know about all the groups that care about them! This is a fun service project for us as well as an excellent opportunity to promote your program.
- Showcase of Preschools - The second week of February, we provide a showcase of all of the programs available for parents and families to check out. Each program decorates a table and provides materials and information.
- Preschool Tours and Communication - The Early Learning Center provides tours and collects information from preschool partners about the children transitioning into kindergarten.
Intervene
School City of Hobart would love to partner with you to provide Learning Check-ups, referrals for early intervention and parent education for your students and families. Together we can be sure to help parents and early childhood professionals monitor children's development, implement learning strategies and refer to early intervention as needed.
