We are proud to offer the Family and Child Education Program, designed to support the educational success of children and their families. FACE promotes school readiness, family literacy, and lifelong learning through home-based and center-based options.

What is FACE?

The FACE Program is a comprehensive early childhood and family literacy program designed to:

  • Strengthen family involvement in education.
  • Promote early learning and development for young children.
  • Support adult education and family literacy.
  • Provide culturally relevant learning opportunities for families.

FACE is open to families with children from birth to age five. By working with families, we aim to build a strong foundation for children’s success in school and beyond.

Home-Based Services

Our home-based option empowers parents as their child’s first teacher. Certified parent educators visit families in the comfort of their homes to:

  • Share age-appropriate activities that support child development.
  • Offer resources and strategies to strengthen parent-child relationships.
  • Provide screenings to track developmental milestones.
  • Help parents set and achieve goals for their child’s education and their own personal growth.

Center-Based Services

The center-based option offers engaging, hands-on learning experiences at our school. Professional educators create a nurturing, culturally respectful environment where children and parents can learn and grow together. Center-based services include:

  • Preschool for children ages 3–5, focusing on school readiness skills.
  • Parent and child time, where families participate in interactive educational activities.
  • Adult education classes, supporting parents’ personal and professional goals, such as earning a GED, improving literacy or gaining job skills.

Why Choose FACE?

FACE is more than a program— it’s a partnership. We collaborate with families to help every child reach their full potential and prepare for success in school and life.

By participating in FACE, families gain:

  • Access to high-quality early childhood education.
  • Tools to support lifelong learning and literacy.
  • A sense of community and connection with other families.
  • Opportunities to achieve personal and educational goals.
