Education-Related Programs


Quality education is the core of Richmond County Partnership for Children’s offerings. We envision a community in which all children, regardless of household income, receive the best early education in order to prepare them for kindergarten.


EducationMore at Four
Funds the placement of at-risk 4-year-olds into the public school program designed to prepare the children for success in kindergarten. More at Four is a community based, voluntary initiative.

Programs provide high quality standards using Creative Curriculum which focuses on preparing children in developmentally appropriate ways to be successful students.

Emphasis is on literacy, numbers, fine and gross motor skill development and problem solving. Studies have shown that students in high quality pre-kindergarten programs are more likely to succeed in grades K-12.
