Age
Level Specialists
The development of
fundamental skills and
individual personality occur
very rapidly during the first
five years of children's lives.
Research has demonstrated that
what children learn and
experience during these early
years provides the foundation
for their attitudes and approach
to learning for the rest of
their lives.
For this reason, Corning
Children's Center employs Age
Level Specialists (ALS) to
supervise the education of each
age group. These experts in
child development are
experienced in working with
their age level in a group
care/education setting. We
believe it is important for them
to remain close to the
experience of working with
children, so each ALS works as
part of a classroom team two
days each week. They spend the
other three days meeting with
staff and families, observing
classrooms and providing
resources to their teams.
This is one more way we
assure parents that when their
children are in our care, they
are in the hands of skilled,
caring individuals with the
expertise to help them learn and
grow.
