ANN REID EARLY CHILDHOOD CENTER

Ann Reid Early Childhood Center is a Title I public prekindergarten school that is part of the Naperville CUSD 203 school district, located in Naperville, IL with about 393 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 17 teachers, Ann Reid Early Childhood Center has a student/teacher ratio of about 23:1. 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.

Ann Reid Early Childhood Center, located at 1011 S. Naper Blvd in Naperville, Illinois, serves as the primary early learning facility for Naperville Community Unit School District 203. The center is dedicated to fostering the developmental needs of young children, specifically focusing on students aged three to five. Its curriculum is designed to provide a foundational educational experience that emphasizes social-emotional growth, cognitive development, and kindergarten readiness in a supportive and structured environment.

The facility is well-regarded for its inclusive approach, offering specialized programs that cater to a diverse range of learners, including those with individualized education plans (IEPs) alongside general education peers. By prioritizing a play-based learning philosophy, Ann Reid creates a collaborative atmosphere where students engage in hands-on exploration under the guidance of highly qualified early childhood educators. The school serves as a vital resource for families in the district, ensuring that children gain the necessary skills and confidence to succeed as they transition into elementary school.
