With about 36 teachers, FRANKLIN EARLY CHILDHOOD CENTER has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Dedicated to the district’s youngest learners, the center focuses on creating a nurturing and developmentally appropriate environment that eases the transition into formal schooling. Its curriculum is designed to foster early social, emotional, and cognitive growth, providing children with the essential building blocks necessary for success in their future academic years.

As an integral part of the Hewlett-Woodmere community, the school emphasizes a play-based and inquiry-driven approach to early childhood education. By leveraging a supportive atmosphere and experienced staff, FRANKLIN EARLY CHILDHOOD CENTER prioritizes individualized attention to ensure that each student develops a strong sense of confidence and curiosity.
