OUR MISSION
The mission of Early Development Services is to provide services and develop community collaborations that will bring people, services, and resources together in support of high quality learning experiences for young children and their families while supporting the diverse workforce of our communities.
Our Beliefs
Our standards of ethical behavior in early care and education are based on commitment to the following beliefs which guide our teaching, learning, and relationships:
- Educators have the right to be actively engaged in the decisions and direction of their school community.
- Children learn best when the curriculum reflects their strengths and interests.
- Authentic learning occurs when identity, culture, language, and community are valued to become vehicles for learning.
