Intensive Early Childhood Education
Our partners in the Omaha Public Schools take a team approach from preschool through Grade 3. Strong school leadership and quality classrooms demonstrate what matters to young children.
Childcare Director Training
Many children spend much of their early learning years in a community childcare setting. This pilot program improves the quality of care in community-based centers where training is not affordable.
Future Teacher Training
The latest technology, on-site faculty coaching, hands-on teacher mentoring — just some of the advantages for young future teachers. This program prepares them to be skilled, confident teachers where they’re needed the most.
Parent University
This community of children and families connects to six Omaha Public Schools elementary buildings around the Learning Community Center of North Omaha. Family participation and school partnerships are already demonstrating powerful impact.
