| FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1 | (CONTINUED FROM FROM 990, PAGE 1) OFFERING A HIGH QUALITY FULL DAY PRESCHOOL EDUCATION TO THE CHILDREN OF EAST ORANGE, NEW JERSEY. COMMUNITY DAY NURSERY HAS BEEN SERVING CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES SINCE 1897. WE BELIEVE HIGH-QUALITY EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION ENSURES CHILDREN TO BE READY FOR KINDERGARTEN AND BEYOND. WE ARE ACCREDITED BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE EDUCATION OF YOUNG CHILDREN WHICH MEANS WE MEET THE HIGH STANDARDS SET TO ENSURE CHILDREN WILL BE SAFE, HEALTHY, AND LEARNING EACH DAY. OUR CERTIFIED TEACHERS HAVE DEGREES AND ARE WELL TRAINED IN EARLY CHILDHOOD. THEY BUILD CARING RELATIONSHIPS WITH EACH CHILD, AND PLAN ACTIVITIES THAT ARE FUN AND CHALLENGING. ONGOING ASSESSMENT ENSURES CHILDREN CONTINUE TO LEARN AND DEVELOP. |
| FORM 990, PART III - STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS | (CONTINUED FROM FORM 990, PAGE 2 LINE 1) IT IS OUR GOAL TO STRENGTHEN A COOPERATIVE PARTNERSHIP WITH FAMILIES THROUGH A VARIETY OF PARENTING SERVICES AND GROUP ACTIVITIES. |
| FORM 990, PART III - STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS | (CONTINUED FROM FORM 990, PAGE 2 LINE 4A) THE COMMUNITY DAY NURSERY (CDN) FULL-DAY PREKINDERGARTEN PROGRAM IS AVAILABLE FOR THREE- AND FOUR-YEAR-OLD CHILDREN WHO RESIDE IN EAST ORANGE, NEW JERSEY. OUR WRAP AROUND PROGRAM OFFERS AN EXTENDED DAY, BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL. OUR MISSION IS TO PROVIDE YOUNG CHILDREN WITH A SAFE, SUPPORTIVE, STIMULATING ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH EACH CHILD'S POTENTIAL FOR EMOTIONAL, INTELLECTUAL, SOCIAL, AND PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT IS NURTURED. WE WERE FULLY ENROLLED AT 90 CHILDREN, AS PER OUR CONTRACT WITH THE EAST ORANGE SCHOOL DISTRICT. WE FOUND THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS AND BEHAVIOR CHALLENGES CONTINUE TO BE HIGH, COMPRISING 25% OF OUR ENTIRE POPULATION. EACH OF OUR SIX CLASSROOMS IS LED BY A TEACHER AND TEACHER ASSISTANT AND A MAXIMUM OF FIFTEEN CHILDREN. TWO CLASSROOMS ARE BILINGUAL SPANISH/ENGLISH. THE SCHOOL YEAR CURRICULUM IS RESEARCH-BASED TOOLS OF THE MIND. OUR TEACHERS DOCUMENT AND ASSESS CHILDREN'S LEARNING VIA THE TEACHING STRATEGIES GOLD ONLINE ASSESSMENT SYSTEM, AND FOUR-YEAR-OLDS ARE ASSESSED FOR KINDERGARTEN READINESS VIA THE MYIGDIS ASSESSMENT TOOL. OUR LITERACY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM IS MADE POSSIBLE THROUGH GRANTS PROVIDED BY FIRST BOOK, A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION, THAT CONNECTS BOOK PUBLISHERS AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO NEW BOOKS FOR CHILDREN IN NEED. CHILDREN SPEND TIME OUTDOORS EVERY DAY. A SPEECH THERAPIST FROM THE SCHOOL DISTRICT PROVIDES SPEECH THERAPY FOR CHILDREN WHO NEED IT ONCE A WEEK IN OUR BUILDING, AND OCCUPATIONAL AND PHYSICAL THERAPISTS COME TO PROVIDE THEIR SERVICES FOR CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS NEEDING THIS ASSISTANCE. OUR CHILDREN ARE SERVED A FRESHLY PREPARED BREAKFAST, LUNCH, AND SNACK EACH DAY. THE CHILD AND ADULT FOOD CARE PROGRAM (CACFP) PROVIDES FUNDING FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE THAT IS APPLIED TOWARD FOOD, FOOD WORKERS' SALARIES AND BENEFITS AND ADMINISTRATION OF THE PROGRAM. WE ALSO RECEIVE A FOOD STIPEND AND A PERCENTAGE OF THE SALARY/BENEFITS FOR THE COOK FROM THE EAST ORANGE BOARD OF EDUCATION. HOWEVER, TO MAINTAIN THE HIGH QUALITY OF THE FOOD PREPARED ALSO REQUIRES ADDITIONAL FUNDING FROM PRIVATE SPONSORS. ENROLLMENT HAS TRENDED DOWNWARD SINCE THE PANDEMIC. NINETY CHILDREN WERE ENROLLED FOR THE 24-25 SCHOOL YEAR. THE RACIAL/ETHNIC BACKGROUNDS OF THE CHILDREN ARE AS FOLLOWS: TWENTY ARE AFRICAN AMERICAN; THIRTY ARE HISPANIC; SEVENTEEN ARE HAITIAN; SIX ARE AFRICAN; THREE ARE GUYANESE; ONE IS WHITE; ONE IS ASIAN; AND TWELVE ARE JAMAICAN. THIRTY-FIVE ARE GIRLS AND FIFTY-FIVE ARE BOYS. APPROXIMATELY FIFTY-TWO PERCENT OF OUR FAMILIES QUALIFY FOR FREE OR REDUCED MEALS THROUGH THE FDA CACFP. THE DEMOGRAPHICS OF EAST ORANGE SHOW A GROWING HISPANIC POPULATION AND THE PERCENTAGE OF FOREIGN-BORN RESIDENTS IS A LARGER PERCENTAGE THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. WE HAVE A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF CHILDREN WHO SPEAK SPANISH OR HAITIAN CREOLE AS THEIR FIRST LANGUAGE. SEVERAL STAFF MEMBERS SPEAK SPANISH. BECAUSE OF BILINGUAL STAFF, PARENTS FEEL WELCOMED AND CARED FOR. THE SISTERS, BROTHERS AND COUSINS OF CHILDREN THAT ATTENDED COMMUNITY DAY NURSERY CONTINUE TO REQUEST OUR CENTER WHEN ENROLLING. WE INVITE FAMILY PARTICIPATION THROUGH "BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT", "BRING A PARENT TO SCHOOL DAY", MONTHLY PARENT MEETINGS, PRESENTATIONS, AND WORKSHOPS. PARENT MEETINGS HAVE INCLUDED PRESENTATIONS ON LEAD POISONING PREVENTION, DENTAL HYGIENE, AND A WELLNESS MEETING FOR MOMS FOR MOTHER'S MAY. WE HELD OUR FIRST "IT TAKES A VILLAGE" PARENT WORKSHOP IN THE SPRING. THE MEETING ON A SATURDAY WAS A CONFERENCE FORMAT WITH SEVERAL PARENT EDUCATION WORKSHOPS FOR PARENTS WHICH PARENTS COULD CHOOSE TO ATTEND, A LIGHT BREAKFAST, LUNCH, CHILDCARE, AND GIVEAWAYS. ANY PARENT OF A YOUNG CHILD WAS WELCOME, NOT JUST THE PARENTS OF OUR ENROLLED CHILDREN. IT WAS WELL ATTENDED, AND A FUN AND INFORMATIVE WAY TO BUILD COMMUNITY. THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR WORKS FULL-TIME, OVER TWELVE-MONTHS TO MANAGE THE PROGRAM AND IS SUPPORTED BY A FULL-TIME ASSISTANT DIRECTOR (FORMERLY EMPLOYED BY THE STATE OF NJ, DEPARTMENT OF CHILDCARE LICENSING) AND A FULL-TIME ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT. CDN EMPLOYS SIX STATE-CERTIFIED TEACHERS, TWO WITH A BACHELOR'S DEGREE AND FOUR WITH MASTER'S DEGREES; SIX TEACHER ASSISTANTS WHO WORK TEN-MONTHS (SEPTEMBER THROUGH JUNE) FOR SEVEN HOURS PER DAY, AND THREE PARAPROFESSIONAL FAMILY SUPPORT STAFF. OUR COOK PREPARES ALL OUR MEALS IN OUR KITCHEN USING FRESH INGREDIENTS AND WITH THE HELP OF THE KITCHEN ASSISTANT. WE EMPLOY A PART TIME CUSTODIAN WHO ALSO SERVES AS A SECURITY GUARD. THE EAST ORANGE SCHOOL DISTRICT EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION DEPARTMENT REQUIRES THE TOOLS OF THE MIND CURRICULUM AND HAS IMPLEMENTED AN ASSESSMENT SYSTEM TO MONITOR CHILDREN'S ACADEMIC GROWTH. TEACHING STRATEGIES GOLD IS AN ONLINE SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS TEACHERS TO USE A VARIETY OF TOOLS TO GATHER AND ORGANIZE MEANINGFUL DATA QUICKLY, INCLUDING ONLINE PORTFOLIOS WHERE CHILDREN'S WORK CAN BE STORED. TEACHERS GENERATE COMPREHENSIVE REPORTS THAT CAN BE CUSTOMIZED EASILY AND SHARED WITH FAMILY MEMBERS TO ENABLE THEM TO BETTER UNDERSTAND AND SUPPORT THEIR YOUNG CHILD'S GROWTH. TEACHERS ALSO ASSESS CHILDREN'S DEVELOPMENT USING THE ESI-R SCREENING TOOL AND THE MYIGDI READINESS FOR KINDERGARTEN ASSESSMENT TOOL. WE SUPPLEMENT THE CURRICULUM WITH SPECIAL EVENTS, INCLUDING YOGA AND MUSIC, A BABY CHICK HATCHING PROJECT, AND A FIELD TRIP TO PICK PUMPKINS IN THE FALL. ALL TEACHING STAFF ARE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE TWENTY HOURS OF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT EACH YEAR. THE EAST ORANGE BOARD OF EDUCATION PROVIDES PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT THAT SUPPORTS THE CURRICULUM AND THE ASSESSMENT SYSTEMS. THE EAST ORANGE BOARD OF EDUCATION PRESCHOOL COACH AND THE PRESCHOOL INTERVENTION RESPONSE SPECIALIST ASSIGNED TO OUR SCHOOL PROVIDES COACHING AND LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES THAT ARE HELPFUL TO OUR STAFF. PROGRAM FOR PARENTS WE STRENGTHEN PARTNERSHIPS WITH FAMILIES, THROUGH A VARIETY OF PARENTING SERVICES AND GROUP ACTIVITIES. FAMILY WORKERS HOST MONTHLY PARENT MEETINGS THAT INTRODUCE OUR PARENTS TO THE COMMUNITY RESOURCES THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO THEM. OUR LITERACY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM IS MADE POSSIBLE THROUGH GRANTS PROVIDED BY FIRST BOOK, A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT CONNECTS BOOK PUBLISHERS AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO NEW BOOKS FOR CHILDREN IN NEED. WE PURCHASE GOOD QUALITY BOOKS AT A FRACTION OF BOOKSTORE PRICES. RESEARCH ON RACIAL AND ETHNIC SCHOOL READINESS GAPS INDICATES THAT QUALITY PARENTAL LINGUISTIC INTERACTION IN THE HOME IS CRUCIAL TO READINESS AT SCHOOL ENTRY AND TO FUTURE ACADEMIC SUCCESS. ONE OF THE INDICATORS OF SUCCESS IN SCHOOL READINESS USED BY MANY RESEARCHERS IS THE NUMBER OF THE BOOKS IN THE HOME. WE WANT OUR FAMILIES TO HAVE HIGH-QUALITY EARLY CHILDHOOD LITERATURE AVAILABLE FOR THEIR CHILDREN. EACH JANUARY WE SEND HOME MARTIN'S BIG WORDS BY DOREEN RAPPAPORT, A BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED AND ELEGANTLY TOLD STORY OF THE REV. DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. APPROPRIATE FOR YOUNG CHILDREN. AT "BACK TO SCHOOL" NIGHT, PARENTS LEARNED ABOUT THE TOOLS OF THE MIND CURRICULUM AND WAYS TO SUPPORT CHILDREN'S LEARNING AT HOME. OUR WORKSHOP ON LIMIT-SETTING GIVEN BY A CERTIFIED PLAY THERAPIST HELPED PARENTS TO UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF STRUCTURE AND LIMITS, AND HOW TO HELP THEIR CHILDREN MAKE GOOD DECISIONS. VARIOUS PRESENTATIONS AROUND CHILDREN'S HEALTH HELPED PARENTS LEARN ABOUT HEALTHY NUTRITION, THE DANGERS OF LEAD FOR YOUNG CHILDREN, AND HOW TO MANAGE ASTHMA. OUR THANKSGIVING FUNDRAISING DRIVE ALLOWED US TO DISTRIBUTE GROCERY STORE GIFT CARDS TO HELP ENSURE OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES HAD A HOLIDAY DINNER. THIS PROJECT WAS FUNDED THROUGH GENEROUS DONATIONS FROM OUR BUSINESS PARTNERS, BOARD MEMBERS, AND PRIVATE DONATIONS.
