Early Childhood Advisory Council

The Collingswood and Oaklyn Early Childhood Advisory Council (ECAC) is a group of parents, school staff and community members whose mission is to support high quality preschool program implementation for the children and families in the community.

One of the core responsibilities of ECAC is to gather feedback from families of preschool students to help ensure the program is meeting their needs. The analysis from the data collected by the yearly needs assessment and discussions amongst the council is then incorporated into program implementation. 

Each year the ECAC meets collectively four times and continues to collaborate in order to accomplish our goals.  The meeting dates for the 2024-2025 school year are: 11/14/24, 1/16/25, 3/13/25 and 5/15/25.

If you are interested in contributing to the work of the council as a Parent Representative, Educator Representative or Community Representative, please reach out to Lauren McCall: lmccall@collsk12.org.
