As a Professional Learning Community, your public school staff at Pate Early Childhood Center is all about student success! 

A Professional Learning Community focuses on three big ideas:

Big Idea #1- A focus on LEARNING not on teaching. A subtle, but powerful difference.

Big Idea #2- A COLLABORATIVE culture. Teams of educators working together to improve student success.

Big Idea #3- A focus on RESULTS. Support and enrichment will be offered to all students in order to achieve mastery of grade level expectations.  

At Pate Early Childhood Center, our goal is to assure high levels of learning for all! We understand that students come in all shapes and sizes, ability levels and experience rapid growth and change over the first few years of school- intellectually, socially, and emotionally, as well as physically- but they do not all grow at the same time or rate. As a result, our team of teachers and staff is committed to helping all students navigate these changes in a friendly safe environment.

As we think about what a student needs by the time he or she graduates from high school, we are dedicated to providing targeted instruction of the whole child. This includes all academic as well as relational areas and needs. We aim to enable all students and unleash their potential for discovering what will be their unique and significant contribution to our society.
