[Courtney Kelly]

Hi!


Here are some updates from Durham's Partnership for Children:


Durham Pre-K Enrollment Webinar

Durham’s Partnership for Children is hosting a Durham Pre-K Enrollment Webinar that will take place on Thursday May 21st at 6 PM. This webinar will be in both English and Spanish, and will have a short presentation with a walk through of the online UPK application, followed by a time for questions.


Families can register for this Zoom webinar at https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0ldeypqDkrHNZ_-n2NuCc5l206Q1EnCHft. We would be so appreciative if you could send the above flyer to the families and network that you serve! The flyer has an active link, so they will be able to click the link and be directed to the registration page.


Ready4K

Ready4K is a free text message curriculum for parents and caregivers of children age birth to eight that gives them the information they need to help build their children’s language and literacy skills by the time they start kindergarten. The Partnership believes Ready4K is a tool that compliments all the work we do here in Durham County.

Available in English, Spanish, and Arabic, Ready4K breaks down growing a young reader into small everyday steps that are easy to achieve. In addition to guidance, the program also provides continuous encouragement and support to parents over an entire calendar year. Each week, Ready4K will send three text messages to parents and caregivers. The information is always developmentally appropriate and is either a fact, tip, or a message encouraging growth. Each text will help parents and caregivers build their children’s language and literacy skills by maximizing existing family routines in fun and easy ways. Sign up is simple!- Text “DPFC” to 70138.

Thank you for all the work that you do in the Durham community!
