Jacksonville School District #117 - Early Years Program

Jacksonville School District #117 - Early Years Program Early Years Program, in collaboration with the Jacksonville School District 117, will provide a quality learning experience for children ages birth to 5.

The Jacksonville School District #117 Early Years Program strives to promote the individual child's development through appropriate learning activities in a warm, nurturing environment. We believe that parents are the child's first teacher and we emphasize the important role that parents play in their child's education. Our staff respects the cultural and linguistic backgrounds of all children and

their families by providing rich multicultural experiences and works to increase the understanding of diversity within the community.
