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.
