Check out the link below for great STEM activities for Preschoolers!
STEM activities are all the rage in education right now, and for good reason. Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) – and the Arts for STEAM – are crucial to kids’ learning and our future. But how to get your younger children interested? They might not be ready for coding, but many preschoolers under age 5 can enjoy some basic STEM principles through play.

¡Vea el enlace a continuación para ver excelentes actividades STEM para niños en edad preescolar!

Las actividades STEM están de moda en la educación en este momento, y por una buena razón. La ciencia, la tecnología, la ingeniería y las matemáticas (STEM), y las artes para STEAM, son cruciales para el aprendizaje de los niños y nuestro futuro. Pero, ¿cómo hacer que sus hijos más pequeños se interesen? Es posible que no estén listos para la codificación, pero muchos niños en edad preescolar menores de 5 años pueden disfrutar de algunos principios básicos de STEM a través del juego.

Tcheke lyen ki anba a pou gwo aktivite STEM pou timoun preskolè!

Aktivite STEM yo tout raj nan edikasyon kounye a, ak pou bon rezon. Syans, Teknoloji, Jeni, ak Matematik (STEM) - ak Atizay pou STEAM - enpòtan anpil pou aprann timoun yo ak avni nou. Men, ki jan ou ka jwenn pi piti timoun ou yo enterese? Yo ta ka pa pare pou kodaj, men anpil timoun preskolè ki poko gen laj 5 an ka jwi kèk prensip debaz STEM nan jwe.

The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) funds grants to eligible individuals for job skills training. If you’re looking to upgrade your skills, we can help find the funding.


In Essex County, there are three ways to establish eligibility:

  1. Dislocated worker: If you’ve lost a job through no fault of your own (company closure, laid off, military spouse relocation), you can qualify. Your prior income has no bearing on your eligibility if you’re a dislocated worker.
  2. Adult income-eligible: If your household income is within the Federal Poverty Level, you may qualify to have your training funded through WIOA.
  3. Youth (Ages 17-24) Out of school youth with specific barriers to employment, including high school dropout, parenting, mental or physical disability, involvement in the juvenile justice or foster care system, homeless or a runaway.

Please see a WIOA eligibility specialist for full list of program

Preschool Attendance Policy

Parents are required to contact the school by 9:00 am to report their child’s absence. If the school is not notified, teachers will contact the parent/guardian after an absence to determine the reason for the absence. Teachers will then notify the In District Attendance Secretary or Contracted Provider Director after attempting to contact the parent/guardian. After the second unexcused absence, the Attendance Secretary or Contracted Provider Director will contact the parent/guardian to determine the reason for the absence and if additional resources are needed. The teacher will also notify the Social Worker or Family Worker if the family requires assistance and/or resources. Medical documentation or notes must be submitted to the School Nurse or Family Worker upon the child's return to school after three consecutive days of absence. If a student is absent for 10 consecutive days, they will be dropped from enrollment in the program unless they have been absent due to medical issues.
