ECE Resource Fairs

As committed partners to Minneapolis Public Schools, we wanted to inform you of our upcoming early childhood education resource fairs for families with children ages birth to kindergarten enrollment.

The fairs are part of our broader efforts to reach more Minneapolis families to connect them to free and low-cost services that can help ensure their children are prepared for kindergarten to set them on the path for long-term success.

The fairs will highlight kindergarten and the array of our Early Childhood Education services such as MPS First Stop; Early Childhood Screening; Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE); Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE); preschool programs; Teen Parent Services; and transitioning to kindergarten. (Please visit our website for information on these programs.)

If your organization has a newsletter, community calendar or other channels for reaching families, here is some text you can use to promote this opportunity to them:
