OPENING FALL 2022-- REGISTRATION AVAILABLE SPRING 2022

Hibbing Early Learning Center

The years from birth to age five are critical to a child's development. The Early Childhood programs are geared to helping families during these formative years. By offering support to the family, parents learn parenting skills that enable them to raise healthy children, and these children will be ready to succeed in school when they enter the doors of our elementary schools.

Our goal is to provide children (from birth to Kindergarten age) and their parents, the opportunity to learn and grow together. The program provides support and information for parents and healthy developmental growth for the child.

What Early Childhood Programs are available?

• Early Childhood Family Education: Providing information, support, and activities for children, birth to kindergarten, and their parents.
• School Readiness: The "Ready, Set, Go” program offers a 2 or 3  full-day/week, pre-K experience for children the year before kindergarten. Beginning Fall '22 we will transition our 2 and 3 day sections to 5 days per week. 
• Three School: Beginning Fall '22 we will be piloting a 1/2 day three year old program which will meet 4 days/week (M-Th).
• Early Childhood Screening: Required for every child before they enter kindergarten in Minnesota. Children should be screened around the age of 3 to 4 years. Vision, hearing, height, weight, and a developmental screening will take place.
