Philosophy Statement
The Great Start Readiness Preschool (GSRP) recognizes that each child has the right to enter school ready to learn. Families come with many needs, and societal and cultural factors may impact a child's readiness to learn. It is the philosophy of GSRP to provide an early learning environment that:
- Acknowledges that each child is a whole person whose growth and development occurs in specific, predictable, sequential and continuous stages that can be positively impacted through quality experiences.
- Encourages and challenges each child to safely explore, create, speculate, experiment, and evaluate.
- Openly welcomes and enlists parents as vital partners in their children's educational endeavors, to focus learning in the context of the family.
Preschool Registration Application is Available
Families are welcome to visit Rodgers Elementary's main office on Thursday, August 23 from 9-11 am to fill out a Great Start Readiness application. You must go to the doors by the playground and ring the buzzer.
