Description: The Judith P. Hoyer Center for Early Child hood Education (Judy Center), located at Patuxent Elementary School, is one of 25 early childhood partnerships in the state, named after the late Judith P. Hoyer, an early childhood educator, and wife of Maryland congressman Steny Hoyer.
The mission of the Judy Center is to provide services designed to promote school readiness to children ages birth through five. We accomplish this through partnerships with community agencies in the county. The goal of the Judy Center is to increase the number of children who enter school ready to learn.
Our goal for the 2013-2014 school year is that by Fall 2014, 96% of the Kindergartens entering PES will be Fully Ready for school as measured by fall Work Sampling Scores. To meet this goal, we will be focusing on the following areas:
***Language and Literacy
***Math and Science
***Parent Involvement
***Dental screenings for all children
***Behavior Support for parents and children
***Identification of children aged 0-3 in our community
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
