My Nonprofit Reviews

There is such a push in Oregon for quality early childhood education so that our most disadvantaged youngsters can enter school ready for kindergarten. In our community, TVCRN is a tremendous resource, focusing on youngsters’ social-emotional skills and building their sense of self so they are ready for academic learning. According to the state, the typical Oregon kindergartner arrives at school knowing very few of their letters and letter sounds, and that’s worrisome. But, if that youngster also isn’t able to sit still, doesn’t know how to share, is a hitter or biter, or won’t stand in line, his kindergarten teacher will spend all her time on classroom management issues, and won’t have the time to focus on academics. The fact that Relief Nursery parents receive home visits so they can be ready to be parents of kindergartners is important, too. The Relief Nursery is a great concept and TVCRN is a great Relief Nursery.
