Early School Success
Success in kindergarten through third grade is critical in establishing a lifelong direction of learning for every child. All children need to be equipped with the support necessary to learn at their fullest potential.
The Children’s Board improves early school success of Hillsborough County youth by making strategic investments to promote the transition of children between the ages of 5 to 8 from preschool through elementary school. We strive so that each child:
- Meets academic benchmarks
- Receives quality instruction
- Is emotionally and behaviorally well adjusted
- Has parents involved with their education
- Has access to healthcare
Our community partners provide key services to support these priorities, such as:
- Comprehensive family support coordination through family support planning.
- Counseling services in the community and local elementary schools.
- After school and summer time supports and services for children in underserved neighborhoods and communities.
