Have questions about implementing Universal PreKindergarten or Universal Transitional Kindergarten? Districts, are you wondering how to integrate multiple initiatives and resources for an aligned and comprehensive early education strategy in your community?

Registration: $1250 per person (registration link coming soon!)

PCY is excited to partner with The Center for District Innovation and Leadership in Early Education (DIAL EE) to offer a unique multi-day convening on implementing a comprehensive early learning strategy that integrates Universal PreKindergarten, Transitional Kindergarten, Expanded Learning and other whole child initiatives. The Institute is:

• Targeted to district teams who will work together to set goals, acknowledge challenges, and identify solutions for early education in their districts

• A venue with rich content and formats differentiated and tailored to participants

• An opportunity to  receive an individualized data packet to support the LEA’s  understanding and decision making toward planning and implementation

• A forum with focused facilitation to  guide thinking, reflection, and support collaborative planning

• An opportunity to hear from and engage with experts across CA’s various UPK and supporting systems, initiatives, and resources

Who should attend?

The Institute is targeted at multi-disciplinary LEA teams made up of key decision-makers with a role in planning and implementing various components of universal prekindergarten, including preschool, transitional kindergarten, and expanded learning. Team members may include representatives from departments/divisions such as early learning, expanded learning, special education, curriculum & instruction, assessment, professional development, human resources, fiscal/budget, operations (e.g., enrollment), and community partners (e.g. Head Start, private child care providers, Local Planning Council members, etc.).
