NAEYC’s Week of the Young Child

NAEYC’s Week of the Young Child

April 13–17 marked NAEYC’s Week of the Young Child, a celebration of young children, their families, and the early learning that builds a foundation for a lifetime. As a faith community that values nurturing each child, we honor the skilled, compassionate teachers in our preschool program who bring love, learning, and safety to the classroom.

WOYC highlights play, music, hands-on learning, and family engagement, all essential to healthy development, and recognizes teachers who build trusting relationships, bring best practices into daily learning, and partner with families to help each child flourish. Week’s activities included Music Monday, Tasty Tuesday, Work Together Wednesday, Artsy Thursday, and Family Friday.
