THE OBJECTIVE OF THE SCHOOL IS THAT EACH CHILD, NO MATTER WHERE THEY MAY FALL ON THE LEARNING SPECTRUM, WILL RECEIVE THE FOUNDATION THEY NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL AND REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL. THE DEVELOPMENTAL DAY PROGRAM IS LICENSED AS A FIVE-STAR CENTER, THE HIGHEST RATING POSSIBLE THROUGH THE NORTH CAROLINA DIVISION OF CHILD DEVELOPMENT AND EARLY EDUCATION. LEARNING TOGETHER IS ALSO NAEYC ACCREDITED, WHICH IS A NATIONAL ACCREDITATION HELD BY ONLY 10% OF THE CHILDCARE CENTERS IN THE UNITED STATES.LEARNING TOGETHER ALSO PLACES GREAT VALUE IN ESTABLISHING RELATIONSHIPS WITH FAMILIES. WE ARE USUALLY THE FIRST ENTRY INTO PRESCHOOL SERVICES FOR SOME FAMILIES, WHICH ALSO MEANS WE ARE THE ENTRY POINT FOR PARENTS WITH CHILDREN WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DELAYS INTO THE WAKE COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM (WCPSS). PARENTS ARE LEARNING HOW TO NAVIGATE THE SPECIAL EDUCATION SYSTEM, WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY LEARNING HOW TO RAISE A CHILD(REN) WITH A UNIQUE SET OF NEEDS. LEARNING TOGETHER PARTNERS WITH THESE PARENTS TO IDENTIFY WHAT IS DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE FOR THEIR CHILD(REN) AND OVERCOME THESE CHALLENGES WITH SUCCESSFUL AND PROVEN TECHNIQUES. SINCE WE BEGAN SERVING CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN 1969, LEARNING TOGETHER HAS MAINTAINED A REPUTATION AS A PROGRAM THAT EMBRACES INCLUSION IN THE CLASSROOM. LEARNING TOGETHER TAKES GREAT PRIDE IN PROVIDING EDUCATIONAL SERVICES FOR ALL CHILDREN THROUGH THE USE OF DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE PRACTICES BY CREATING A CARING COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS, TEACHING TO ENHANCE DEVELOPMENT AND LEARNING, PLANNING CURRICULUM TO ACHIEVE IMPORTANT GOALS, ASSESSING CHILDREN'S DEVELOPMENT AND LEARNING, AND ESTABLISHING RECIPROCAL RELATIONSHIPS WITH FAMILIES. STUDENTS WHO ARE GIVEN THE ADVANTAGE OF ATTENDING A PRE-KINDERGARTEN (PRE-K) PROGRAM DEVELOP MUCH NEEDED EMOTIONAL, ACADEMIC, AND SOCIAL SKILLS THEY MAY OTHERWISE LACK WHEN ENTERING KINDERGARTEN. STUDENTS WHO DEVELOP SELF-REGULATION SKILLS GAIN CONFIDENCE AS THEY MASTER ACADEMIC CONCEPTS, AND LEARN TO COOPERATE WITH THEIR PEERS IN PRE-K WILL BE FAR BETTER PREPARED TO ENTER KINDERGARTEN. THIS IS PARTICULARLY TRUE FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE ALREADY AT A DISADVANTAGE IN ANY OR ALL OF THESE AREAS. WE ARE COMMITTED TO "CHANGING THE CLASSROOM TODAY TO CHANGE THE WORKPLACE TOMORROW". 1465140 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 3 0 32 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 X COURTNEY DOZIER 9198565204 288 W EDENTON STREET RALEIGH NC 27603 KIM MITCHELL SECRETARY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 JOSH HERNANDEZ IMMIDIATE PAST PRESIDENT 2.00 X X 0 0 0 RANDI LIGON PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 0 0 0 TERI RIDDLE VICE PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 0 0 0 AMANDA CLAYTON DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JOHNATHAN KEARNEY DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 MEGAN BELL DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 KYLE REESE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 15.00 X 126000 0 0 126000 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 16751 250437 2825 267188 PROGRAM SERVICE FEES 624410 834096 834096 TUITION AND FEES 624410 479675 479675 1313771 1184 1184 0 16751 13766 -13766 -13766 1568377 1313771 0 -12582 126000 31500 63000 31500 1042222 876225 142289 23708 894 695 157 42 175383 136275 30820 8288 75527 58686 13272 3569 9000 9000 91124 16875 26055 48194 24514 24514 1475 1247 20 208 22245 8570 9127 4548 83021 74499 8491 31 1126 1126 6218 6218 23075 23075 11209 11209 FOOD SERVICES 109732 109732 THERAPY SERVICES 102792 102792 UTILITIES 21049 21049 STAFF DEVELOPMENT 17573 17544 29 27587 8325 17158 2104 1971766 1465140 359920 146706 52373 20076 456349 59888 14141 78491 173160 27789 9281 145371 10468 10896 319874 246927 862486 561649 58033 125619 109084 319658 245540 377691 480243 X 484795 81406 484795 81406 862486 561649 -403389 0 X 0 1 X 0 0 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 10468 728 300 10896 10342 426 300 10468 11565 -923 300 10342 10333 1389 157 11565 10294 339 300 10333 1.00000 1 0 15000 1236 13764 158160 26553 131607 145371 DEPOSIT 5000 RIGHT OF USE (ROU) ASSETS - OPERATING LEASE 241927 246927 OPERATING LEASE LIABILITY 245540 245540 X 1582143 0 1582143 -13766 -13766 1568377 1985532 13766 13766 1971766 0 1971766 PART X, LINE 2: THE ORGANIZATION EVALUATES ITS UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS USING PROVISIONS OF FASB ACCOUNTING STANDARDS CODIFICATION (ASC)740, INCOME TAXES.
