Values

We Partner: We recognize all members of the Adams County community as valued allies in supporting our youngest residents, welcoming their ideas, contributions and collaborations with open arms.

We communicate: We value human connection and will always personally respond to questions, requests, emails and calls.

We support quality childhood experiences: We work to have all Adams county youngest learners in a high quality preschool experience.

We value those who dedicate their lives to serving children: We recognize the hard work that goes into caring for our youngest residents and find ways, big and small, to acknowledge, validate, and celebrate their impact.

We empower: We continue to support partners, families, and communities until they are confident and equipped with the capacity to thrive on their own.

Continuous improvement: We see challenges as learning opportunities, and continually evolve to better serve children, families, communities, and partners.

Empathy: We strive to recognize and understand the perspectives, feelings and lived experiences of others, including and especially those most different from ourselves, and give one another grace.

Justice and Equity: We affirm the dignity and worth of each member of our community, while recognizing and working to combat the structural forces (such as racism) that have harmed some groups while benefiting others.
