++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Family Resource Center is now located at Momauguin School 95 Cosey Beach Road The East Haven Family Resource Center (FRC) was established in 1998 at the D.C. Moore elementary school. Today, East Haven Public Schools is pleased to announce the grand reopening of the Family Resource Center at Momauguin School which began on November 1, 2016. The FRC’s fundamental purpose is to promote an integrated and comprehensive support mechanism for all of East Haven’s parents and their children. Throughout the past 19 years, the East Haven FRC has been a home for countless families to access important information needed to sustain both a student’s educational success by providing a foundational support to children and to also help parents build a nurturing family environment. From its humble beginnings of just one parent educator working part-time for 19.5 hours each week to a now highly successful program with a staff of two (2) parent educators working 100 hours weekly, the goals and objectives defined by the Center’s Mission statement have not changed; to be focused not only on each child’s development in a comprehensive school setting, but to also establish strategies that will help the family support the development of their child through adolescence. Currently, the Family Resource Center is supporting the East Haven community by working diligently designing supportive programs that offer both in-home visitation, as well as holding weekly playgroups that begin with our youngest residents (8 weeks) at various locations in town. These are thirty-four (34) families that regularly attend group connections and playgroups that are not enrolled in our home visitation programs. Additionally, the Family Resource Center provides quality childcare and School Readiness services to many of our other local educational contributors. Some of the programs that the FRC works hand-in-hand with to provide extended services, support, and collaboration are:
The FRC also sponsors family connection nights that draw well into the hundreds of active participants (Pasta and Literacy Night, Winter Wonderland, and Week of the Young Child events) all activities that strengthen the bonds between family, schools, and the community at large. Recently (November 9) 156 people attended the Pasta and Literacy Night at the Overbrook Early Learning Center. Together with our partner Read to Grow, families were able to come together, have dinner, listen to interactive renditions of Dr. Seuss stories, and also have the opportunity to take home a book of their choice. Additionally, we are actively helping ten (10) families participate in the Raising Readers program to promote family literacy. If you or your family reside in the Town of East Haven, you are welcome to experience the Family Resource Center and the many services it can provide. Please look for our newsletter and scheduled activities on the East Haven Public Schools District website or stop in at our new office at Momauguin School, 95 Cosey Beach Road. ________________________________________________ Overbrook Early Learning Center School Hours Before School Care 7 AM to 8:45 AM School Day 8:45 AM to 3:00 PM After School Care 3:15 PM to 6 PM _____________________________ Overbrook Early Learning Center Dress Code All preschool 3 and 4 year-old students are required to follow the East Haven Public School District Dress Code Dress code guidelines and information can be obtained by clicking on the link below: Dress code ************************************************************************************************************************************ School Readiness Meeting Schedule for 2019-2020 Meetings will be held at the Overbrook Early Learning Center, 54 Gerrish Avenue 12:30 P.M.
