The Family Literacy Program is a unique opportunity that combines:

• Adult basic English language learning;
• Parent education and support;
• Early education for children from birth to age 4; and
• Parent and child interaction in a developmental learning environment

Our team provides a full continuum of services for children from birth through 5 years. Services for eligible children from birth to age 3 are provided in the home and the center based classroom is an integrated program for 3-4 year olds with various needs. An assessment can help best identify the proper support for cognitive, speech/language, motor, self-help and social/emotional development needs.

Is your child between the ages of 3-4? Then it's time for an early childhood screening! Pearson Early Learning Center offers FREE early childhood screenings to any child within the noted age range, regardless of their home school district. The screening is required to enter Kindergarten and helps help better identify development and learning needs including hearing, vision, communication, social and motor skills.
