Families across our Austin community and the country are in the midst of back-to-school season. And there’s a lot to do to get ready. So what does it mean to be school-ready? It’s more than a new backpack or fresh pair of kicks.
Being ready to learn means children have the curiosity, language, social skills, and needed to perform at their highest potential. Investing in school readiness sets kids up for a lifetime of reaching their full potential.
