Learning With Littles
The Early Childhood Liaison program is designed to help prepare all children in Bridger Valley for success in kindergarten by supporting families and early childhood professionals in our community to ensure the best start for all children.
Serving children and families 0-5 years old!
In the past years, the school district found that more than half of their incoming kindergartners are not prepared when they came to kindergarten. As a result, the school district created an Early Childhood Liaison position to connect the communities’ various early care and education programs and families with resources to ensure children have the best start at becoming lifelong learners.
Stephanie Aimone is UCSD #6’s Liaison and ensures that everyone in the community is working together to prepare young children for success in school. Stephanie makes sure that the communities’ early childhood stakeholders are on the same page, know what kindergarten readiness looks like, and are positioned with activities and information to do their part to help prepare children for success in school and in life.

The Liaison’s responsibilities include supporting and maintaining curriculum alignment between pre-k and k programs to ensure that what children are doing before kindergarten helps them be ready for school. Also, this Liaison assists with any of the school’s incoming kindergarten camps, tours, visits, etc. Participating in activities that are designed to make children and parents more comfortable with their new school and the new set of expectations really helps children and families show up ready to succeed. Finally, the Liaison engages families through child/caregiver programs, such as “Learning with Littles,” where the Liaison models positive activities for families that they can replicate in the home environment for continued interaction and healthy development.
