| FORM 990 | CHILD'S PATH DID NOT RUN OPERATIONS ON A NORMAL BASIS POST THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED 6/30/23. IT WAS DETERMINED BY NOVEMBER 2023 THAT THE BUSINESS WAS UNDER SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL STRESS AND THAT OPERATIONS WOULD EITHER NEED TO BE DISCONTINUED OR TRANSFERRED TO ANOTHER EARLY CHILDHOOD LEARNING CENTER. FUN TIME EARLY CHILDHOOD ACADEMY, ALSO LOCATED IN COLLIER COUNTY WAS INTERESTED AND AN AGREEMENT WAS ULTIMATELY REACHED AND THE OPERATIONS WERE TRANSFERRED TO FUN TIME EFFECTIVE 2/23/24. ALL COMMENTS REFLECTED THROUGHOUT SCHEDULE O ARE REFLECTIVE OF OPERATIONS PRIOR TO THE TRANSFER OF ASSETS TO FUN TIME EARLY CHILDHOOD ACADEMY. CHILD'S PATH USES LEARNING PRACTICES INSPIRED BY THE REGGIO EMILIA APPROACH - A PROJECT-BASED PHILOSOPHY AND CREATIVE CURRICULUM THAT IS FLEXIBLE AND EMERGES FROM CHILDREN'S IDEAS, THOUGHTS, QUESTIONS AND OBSERVATIONS. THIS PHILOSOPHY AND CURRICULUM SUPPORTS THE BELIEF THAT CHILDREN ARE FULL OF POTENTIAL AND THAT THEIR NATURAL CURIOSITY WILL LEAD THEIR EARNING.CHILDREN ARE ENCOURAGED TO ENGAGE AND WORK WITH THEIR PEERS TO ACHIEVE COMMON GOALS AND DEVELOP CONFIDENCE AS THEY LEARN AT THEIR OWN PACE. LEARNING GOALS ARE BASED ON EACH CHILD'S INDIVIDUAL INTERESTS AND THE TEACHERS SERVE AS PARTNERS AND COLLABORATORS. LEARNING IS ACTIVE AND ENGAGING, AS OPPOSED TO ROTE AND TEACHER DRIVEN. REGGIO AND CREATIVE CURRICULUM-INSPIRED LEARNING VIEWS YOUNG CHILDREN AS INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE CHILD'S PATH, INC. CURIOUS ABOUT THEIR WORLD AND HAVE THE POWERFUL POTENTIAL TO LEARN FROM ALL THAT SURROUNDS THEM. EDUCATION, PSYCHOLOGICAL AND SOCIOLOGICAL INFLUENCES ARE IMPORTANT FACTORS TO CONSIDER IN UNDERSTANDING CHILDREN AND WORKING TO STIMULATE AND ENHANCE LEARNING IN APPROPRIATE WAYS. RESOURCES ARE REQUIRED TO ENSURE THE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT IS WARM, NURTURING, HEALTHY, SAFE, ART-BASED, NATURE-INSPIRED AND FLEXIBLE, AS IT PROMOTES CREATIVITY, PROBLEM SOLVING AND ENGAGED LEARNING. ADDITIONALLY, CHILD'S PATH UTILIZES CONSCIOUS DISCIPLINE, WHICH IS A SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING CURRICULUM THAT IS NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED AND EVIDENCE BASED.CONSCIOUS DISCIPLINE ASSISTS CHILDREN IN CULTIVATING CONFLICT RESOLUTION AND PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS, MANAGING FEELINGS AND BEHAVIORS, BUILDING POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS AND PREVENT BULLYING. CREATING CARING, COOPERATIVE CLASSROOMS TEACHES CHILDREN TO MAKE HEALTHY CHOICES AND BUILDS AUTHENTIC FAMILY PARTNERSHIPS.CHILD'S PATH USES A PEO FOR PAYROLL PURPOSES.CHILD'S PATH CENTER IN SANTA BARBARA HAS BEEN ACCREDITED THROUGH THE NATIONAL ACCREDITATION COMMISSION OF THE ASSOCIATION FOR EARLY LEARNING LEADERS SINCE 2020. THIS ACCREDITATION HOLDS CHILD'S PATH TO THE HIGHEST OF QUALITY AND SAFETY STANDARDS IN EARLY EDUCATION.CHILD'S PATH HAS RECOGNIZED THE IMPORTANCE OF TEACHING OUR CHILDREN THE CRITICAL SKILLS TO OVERCOME TRAUMA AND BUILD RESILIENCY. WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY SOUGHT FUNDING AND IMPLEMENTED OUR BRIGHT PATH RESILIENCY PROGRAM WHICH BUILDS THESE SKILLS IN OUR CLASSROOM FAMILIES ON A DAILY BASIS THROUGH CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES, COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS, TEACHER TRAINING AND SPECIFIC CLASSROOM MATERIALS. WE USE A VARIETY OF TECHNIQUES INCLUDING DEVELOPING "SAFE PLACES- AND "DEEP BREATHING" TO REINFORCE THESE SKILLS. |
