Parents as Teachers - An Overview
Parents As Teachers recognizes your family’s strengths and that you are the expert on your child. The program helps you become involved in the education of your child from the beginning of his or her life through personal visits with the parent educator. With the Born to Learn Curriculum, parent educators will help you discover ways to promote age appropriate developmental activities for your child.
The Pat program offers child development activities that encourage language & literacy development, intellectual growth, social development and motor skills.
Pat creates a positive impact on your community as well. Studies show that children achieve greater academic success over time, and that parents increase confidence in their parenting role. Through the program, parents also become familiar with their community resources and develop good relationships with the school from the beginning.
