The Webster Parish Early Childhood Ready Start Network serves 8 Early Learning Centers, 5 school sites, and 3 Head Start centers. During the 2021-2022 school year, we served 514 publicly funded seats in public school PreK, Head Start and Early Learning Centers. After seeing the decline in enrollment during the 2020-2021 school year, we are beginning to see an increase in enrollment. Webster Ready Start Network’s 2021-2022 CLASS score, which measures quality teacher-child interactions, averaged (5.21), which is in the proficient range. Our Emotional Support, Classroom Organization, and Emotional and Behavioral Support CLASS scores are in the High Proficient/Excellent range for all site types, while our Instructional Support and Engaged Support for Learning CLASS scores fall in the Approaching Proficient/Proficient range for each site type for 2021-2022. This indicates a need for additional professional development in these two areas. In the Spring of 2020, we became a part of Cohort 3 Ready Start Network initiative. We have formed our Ready Start Network Advisory Council who works collaboratively to execute a bold local vision to improve opportunities and inspire change for children birth to age five. Council members focus on improving the quality, accessibility, and affordability of early childhood services throughout our network. The LDOE Birth to 3 seats initiative awarded Webster Ready Start these tuition free, high quality childcare seats to 48 families in our community.
