About this listen

Nancy Sherod, Ana Garcia, and Heather Smith spend time discussing the work the Early Education and Development department is doing with regards to the mixed delivery system for early learning and childcare on behalf of San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools. This work aims to increase equity and access by sharing the options to families about the various settings like Transitional Kindergarten, state preschool programs, Head Start, and family childcare providers. The UPK mixed delivery work group, led by Elaina Holley, includes diverse stakeholders to develop a system that meets the specific families' needs throughout San Bernardino County. This episode focuses on an upcoming family survey that will help the workgroup gather data on barriers and successes for supporting their children, with a specific focus on families with children aged 3-4. The goal is to create actionable steps based on this data to improve early education and care throughout the county.
