Early Childhood Program Supervisor:<br />

Amanda Giacomino<br />

Early Learning Center has provided<br />

a strong foundation for Glencoe’s<br />

preschoolers for more than 35 years.<br />

Our goal for children is not just schoolreadiness,<br />

but life-readiness: the ability to<br />

problem-solve, work with others, feel good<br />

about oneself and one’s abilities to meet<br />

new challenges with interest and curiosity.<br />

We promote active play, take time for<br />

the creative arts, taste foods from other<br />

cultures, try words in unfamiliar languages,<br />

and set the stage for life in the world<br />

community.<br />
