April 13-19, 2008
We are beginning to plan for this year's Week of the Young Child. This year's theme is "Bring Communities Together for Children... Children Bring Communities Together".
Our main goal this year is to be more inclusive in bringing together our Early Childhood, Pre-k through 2nd Grade, community.
Kick-Off to the Week of the Young Child on April 14, 2008
Traditionally we begin the Week of the Young Child with a March to City Hall. Children from area schools/childcare centers gather to sing songs in celebration, and the Honorable Mayor Jeremiah Healy presents a Proclamation to Patricia Bryant, Associate Superintendent of Early Childhood. This year, since the Mayor’s Chambers are under construction, the Mayor is coming to Julia A. Barnes School (P.S. 12) to present the Proclamation. Children from P.S. 12 and area childcare centers will attend. Check our website for photos of the event. |

April 22-28, 2007
Thank you for joining us in celebration of the "Week of the Young Child." It was a great week with students, staff, and parents, participating in many activities throughout the city.
The week began with a march to the City Hall, where the Honorable Mayor Jerramiah Healy presented a proclamation to the children of Jersey City, which was received by our Associate Superintendent of Early Childhood, Ms. Patricia Bryant.
The "Week of the Young Child Dinner" was held at the Casino in the Park Restaurant and was a huge success!
Across the city, there were many WOYC classroom activities including songs and books, arts and crafts, outdoor fairs, and much more.
