The Little Scholars Pre-School Readiness Program was started in 1998 in an effort to provide developmentally appropriate learning experiences for three and four year old children. We believe that children learn by doing and that children grow and learn at individual paces. When provided varied and developmentally appropriate opportunities to discover, explore and learn, young children will develop self-esteem and self-discipline. This readiness program teaches kids in an interactive learning environment. Stressing problem solving and fundamentals of language and reading and writing, these boys and girls are also exposed to music, recreation and computers. Regular field trips are also part of the learning experience for our children. Children are transported in a housing authority van for all field trips.

The Little Scholars Pre-School Readiness Program is absolutely free to residents of the Eufaula Housing Authority’s Public Housing or Section 8 programs. Little Scholars Pre-School hours are from 8:30 AM until 2:30 PM during the city school year. Breakfast and lunch is served on a daily basis. A snack time and nap period as well as recreation activities on the playground are also part of the school day.

All members of the professional staff at Little Scholars Pre-School are highly qualified for their positions with bachelor degrees. Other instructors are brought in to teach and provide instruction in specialized subjects like nature, cultural arts, crafts and nutrition.
