Johnson says, “Our goal with preschool education is to provide equal opportunity, equal access, and early education to as many three and four year olds in our community. When it’s time to enroll in kindergarten, we want as many of them as possible to have experienced educational, social, emotional, and play opportunities, so that they can be successful in the early elementary years.” At the elementary level, Assistant Superintendent of Schools, Sandra Rodriguez-Gomez shares that the district has continued to collaborate with impactful programs in the ELA space, including Orton Gillingham, and the Institute of MultiSensory Education (IMSE), to ensure students have the foundational skills necessary to be successful readers. 262 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 5, ISSUE 03
