Child not quite ready for Kindergarten but they are 5? 

They can also come to ECM and have a wonderful learning experience.

 

Our Pre-K program has proven to ready children for Kindergarten.  Our center, "hands on" learning and phonics based philosophy has afforded many children the knowledge both mentally and socially as they embark on their big school adventure.  We are a provider for the State Funded Voluntary Pre-K program and have many different classes to chose from. Classes are 5 hour days 3 and 5 days.  We also offer many options for "wrap around" and "parent pay" to create full days.  Just tell us what you need and we can make it work.

Elisa Marzucco

Mrs. Marzucco has been on staff of ECM for 25 years.  She has a love of children and teaching which is evident in her dedication to ECM.  She is excited about teaching as a part of the new VPK program and has always taught to ready her students for Kindergarten.  Her happy smile always invites the children to come, learn and play.  She has a renewed Child Development Associate Credential, (CDA.)  She is the co-teacher of the Panther class room.

Pat Monteiro

Mrs. Monteiro returns to ECM after being away for 5 years.  With her "baby" going to Kindergarten, she is ready to return to ECM.  Ms. Pat taught in our Infant room soon after the class was opened.  Her calming, loving, spiritual demeanor was wonderful for the youngest in our school.  She is now co- teaching in our "Panther" VPK class and will bring all those same characteristics to these older children.  Mrs. Monteiro has a degree in Speech and will be such an asset to this age group as pronunciation and pre reading skills are so very important at this age.  She co-teaches with Mrs. Marzucco. 

Laura Johnson

Mrs. Johnson has come to ECM with years of experience from the City of Coconut Creek.  She has a love of children and enjoys teaching.  She has been a great addition to our VPK 4's program known as the "Manatee" class. She co-teaches with Mrs. Payne. She has a Bachelor's Degree and a CDA Credential.

 Lisa Payne

Mrs. Payne has been a part of the ECM staff for 12 years.  She has taught in our 4's, Toddlers, our "Alligator" class and is now co-teacher of the "Manatee" VPK Class.  She loves the children and has them "learning" through every activity available to them.  Mrs. Payne also has her Child Development Associates Credential.

Dawn DeLena

Ms. DeLena has been at ECM in the teaching realm for 7 years, but has been a part of the ECM family as a parent for the past 12 years.  She is the co-teacher with Mrs. Dalu in the "Pelican" Class.  We are glad to have her as a part of the staff of ECM.   She earned her Child Development Associate Credential from Palm Beach Community College.

 

Beverly Dalu

Mrs. Dalu is co-teacher of the "Pelican" class.  She taught in our 2 year old program for many years and was ready to allow herself a change.  She has been a part of ECM for many years but on staff for 20 years.  She has seen many children through our program and loved by them all.  She has a Child Development Associates Credential.  She now has a grandchild that is a student at ECM.

Dilia Suggs

Dilia is the Afternoon Assistant with our Pre-K and 4 year olds.  She is a student and loves reading with this age group.  We are glad to have her as a part of the staff.  As you can see by her picture, she enjoys what she does!

Cindy Sawadogo

Ms. Cindy is new to our Afternoon Assistant staff, but not to ECM.  She has two boys, one who has been and one who currently is a student at ECM.  It's always interesting to have a parent work in the school, but she gets to be a part of both worlds, staff and parent.  The children love her and she stays very active with them in the Afternoons.
