QCS PRE-K PROGRAM

    ABOUT PRE-KINDERGARTEN

     

    The Quitman County School System has one Georgia Lottery funded Pre-K classes. Our program provides a full day (6.5 hours) of appropriate instructional services to students for the regular school calendar year. The purpose of the Pre-K Program is school readiness and preparing students for a smooth transition to Kindergarten for success in later school years.

    • A child's readiness for school is when...
    • possible health barriers that obstruct learning have been detected,
    • suspected physical or mental disabilities have been addressed,
    • enthusiasm, curiosity, and persistence toward learning is demonstrated,
    • feelings of both self and others are recognized,
    • social and interpersonal skills are emerging,
    • communication with others is effective,
    • early literacy skills are evident, &
    • common knowledge about the world, things, places, events, and people has been acquired.

    The Pre-Kindergarten teacher is a certified that provides instructional activities and learning experiences in the areas of language/literacy, math, social/emotional development, science, social studies, health/physical development and art/creative expressions using a Georgia Pre-K approved curriculum that is aligned to the Georgia Early Learning and Development Standards (GELDS) . A maximum of twenty (20) students receive services in the class.
