About Northeast Community Center For Behavioral Health

Northeast Community Center For Behavioral Health welcomes the students and families of Philadelphia to its center-based early child care and education facility. As a center, Northeast Community Center For Behavioral Health resembles the best of what students will get in the years ahead in structured schooling while maintaining the close community and relationships that’re instrumental in early childhood development. Attending a center benefits students as students will spend their days in a structured, stable environment that hones spatial, vocabulary and other skills with enriching curriculums and activities. The benefit of a full-time schedule for children, too, can be dramatic! In a structured, repeated learning environment, students will play with the same peers, get familiar with the same staff and experience something new every day. The full-time schedule at Northeast Community Center For Behavioral Health offers families these things for their children in an environment that’ll soon become a real community. Parents get the advantages of long blocks of time to work while students will grow their social, behavioral and cognitive skills. In addition, Northeast Community Center For Behavioral Health teaches a mixed-age curriculum that facilities peer learning and communal growth. In a mixed-age classroom like at Northeast Community Center For Behavioral Health, students receive open-ended, stimulating activities and are encouraged to move at their own pace. Younger students receive help and encouragement from older students, boosting their confidence and self-esteem, and older students get to lend a helping hand, teaching empathy and the joy of giving. Mixed-age learning replicates the best of a family or neighborhood group structure as children socialize with peers a little ahead or a little behind their own development path.
