The Town of West Hartford is now accepting applications from early childhood sites to participate in the School Readiness program for July 2015 – June 2016. This funding through a grant from the State of Connecticut provides an opportunity for low income families to attend a high quality early childhood experience.

The Town of West Hartford is currently seeking applicants that can offer families Full-Day/Full-Year experience. The definition of Full Day/Full Year is the site must provide preschool services for 5 days per week, 10 hours per day for a minimum of 50 weeks per year and adhere to the policy for an alternative plan of care outlined in GP 14-05.

In order to be considered for participation, programs must complete an RFP and submit by April 1, 2015, to [email protected]. Programs must be licensed and accredited by NAEYC, or become accredited within three years of accepting funds. Staff degree requirements are outlined by the State of Connecticut and included in the RFP. Please contact Mary Stone to receive a copy of the RFP or to get answers to questions or concerns.
