Goal of Prekindergarten
The goal of Gadsden City Schools Prekindergarten program is to provide every child with a high-quality pre-k program that lays the foundation for school readiness. In our pre-kindergarten classrooms school readiness is fostered through opportunities that promote child exploration, sociability, curiosity, creativity, decision-making, independence, and responsibility, in combination with partnerships among families, teachers, and our community. Children completing our program will enter school with an enthusiasm for learning, an ability to function in a social setting, age-appropriate communication and problem solving skills, age-appropriate physical and emotional skills, and optimal health. It is important that we meet our goal with all of our pre-kindergarteners because we feel that a child who is ready to learn when entering our schools will be able to obtain benefits from learning experiences offered by our schools and will encounter fewer obstacles to learning.
