Our Curriculum
At Boys & Girls Clubs of Benton and Franklin Counties, we prepare children for success in school and in life by implementing the leading, research-based early learning curriculum into our daily programs.
Through a partnership with Teaching Strategies (the most widely used Preschool Curriculum in the Country), we empower children to be confident, creative, and caring learners through play-based, hands-on programming. This specialized approach incorporates language, literacy, and mathematics throughout the day.
Using this curriculum, our staff creates effective, developmentally appropriate programs for children with diverse backgrounds, life experiences, languages, and skill levels.
Our learning and development objectives fully align with the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework and state early learning standards.
