GREAT BEGINNINGS PRE-SCHOOL

Great Beginnings Pre-School is a Title I public prekindergarten school that is part of the Crane Elementary District (4501) school district, located in Yuma, AZ with about 99 students. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 6 teachers, Great Beginnings Pre-School has a student/teacher ratio of about 16:1. 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.
