Overview
The first five years in life can be giant steps if children are offered a good start. Or the first years can be the beginning of a life long struggle to catch up.
During these first five years:
90% of a child's brain development takes place
Lifelong patterns of behavior are formed
A child's lifelong learning capcity is broadly established
Our choice and investments of time, money and emotion as a community will determine who will succeed and who will struggle. Our community's future is tied to the success of all our children.
