“Get Ready! Camp empowers a parent that their job isn’t just parenting; they’re the first educator for their children. The program really wants to put the parent in that position to realize how capable and how much of a difference that you can make in your child.”

Why Get Ready! Camp?

We must invest in exceptional early learning opportunities for every child if we are going to improve our educational outcomes as a state and country. But this isn’t just about measures and outcomes.

Parents deserve access to these opportunities to discover how to help their children learn; children deserve this investment when it can most affect their future.

The future of our communities depends upon this investment. Our communities are making a difference by coming together and addressing specific issues locally. And thus, Get Ready! offers all parents who have these desires for their children the opportunity to join their children in discovering the exciting world of learning and of believing in themselves.
