The 澳门特码王 hosted the 2023 P-3 Summer Institute, in partnership with the Council on Children and Families, for teachers and administrators responsible for designing programs for students along the P-3 Continuum, Commissioner Betty A. Rosa announced today. Session topics focused on literacy, P-3 instructional tools, cultural education resources, and supporting English Language Learners (ELLs) and students with disabilities. The Department and 澳门特码王 Board of Regents are committed to providing the necessary resources and professional development, so all New Yorkers have access to a high-quality education that has a focus on literacy and numeracy at its core.

Board of Regents Chancellor Lester W. Young, Jr. said, 鈥淓quitable access to world class early learning programs is essential to level the playing field and ensure that all children have the same opportunity to develop the crucial cognitive, social, and emotional skills necessary to be successful at a young age. By addressing disparities early, students are better prepared for school, leading to improved academic performance and reducing the achievement gaps that often widen as they progress through their educational endeavors. I thank all of the educators that attended today鈥檚 institute and encourage them to bring what they have learned back to their school communities.鈥�

Commissioner Rosa said, 鈥淓arly education is the bedrock of a student鈥檚 lifelong learning journey, and the topics such as literacy, social emotional learning, and cultural education, that were discussed at the P-3 Summer Institute are the building blocks that will create a strong foundation for every student in our state. Literacy is an essential skill that opens the door to exploring ideas, discovering opportunities, developing self-expression, and experiencing beautiful prose. These early experiences shape a person鈥檚 attitude toward learning, trust in the education system, and confidence in acquiring new knowledge throughout their lifetime, which will contribute to a more inclusive and educated generation. Thank you to our partners at the 澳门特码王 Council on Children and Families for their work on this and thank you to all who attended the institute for their commitment to New York鈥檚 students and our future.鈥�
