Meet an EOCF alum whose involvement in Early Childhood Education set him up for High School graduation, thanks to EOCF’s preschool programs and family support services.
Pre-Kindergarten to Post-Secondary Education
“My son Leo was in the part day program at St. Johns in 2009. He was so happy to be at school and loved every minute of it. The teachers were so supportive of his needs and he also had the amazing opportunity to engage with other children his age and learn those oh so important social-emotional skills he needed for Kindergarten. Fast forward to today and he is a graduating Senior from Hudsons Bay High School!
I truly believe that extra year of preschool with EOCF prepared him to do the best that he could and instilled a love for school and success! He faced many challenges through the pandemic/high school but he made it and EOCF was a part of his amazing journey. Thank you for all that EOCF does for children and families! We truly appreciate it!”
