STAND FOR CHILDREN

The center for early literacy and learning success (cells) improves early education outcomes through strategic partnerships with leading organizations and implementation of the great first eight curriculum, a comprehensive infant through grade 2 full-day research-aligned curriculum supported by professional learning. Curriculum development was advanced, pilot implementation continued, and cells established several new organizational partnerships on educator professional development and early literacy tutoring. By scaling effective early literacy practices and fostering excellence in early education, cells works to ensure that every child builds the fundamental knowledge and skills to thrive now and throughout their lives.
