It serves as the base for lesson planning and parent/teacher conferences. TSG is being utilized by many Early Care & Education centers as well as Head Start programs. The new system will:
• serve children from birth through pre-kindergarten
• focus on the key elements that research indicates are most predictive of school success
• align with the expectations of the State of DE Early Learning Foundations

Infant through Toddler classrooms receive Family Album workbooks that help them work with their children on age appropriate activities.

Our school age program utilizes lesson plans focused on experimenting with new interests, finding mentoring relationships and developing socialization opportunities.

Happy Earth Day all 🫶🏻🌎♻️

Be good to Mother Earth!

🌏 Earth Day is a celebration that comes at a time when climate change is affecting communities across the globe.

Earth Day, which falls on April 22 every year, began in 1970, after millions of protesters in the United States marched for change, following a series of disasters caused by climate change and pollution that impacted the country. It then grew to a global movement.

In 2026, the day continues to acknowledge our planet, how it provides for us and ways we can protect and preserve its beauty.
