Parents As Teachers is a family education and support program that provides the necessary resources to parents for fostering their child’s development. Let PAT assist you in laying the foundation for your child’s success in school and in life!
The components of the Kirbyville Parents As Teachers program are designed to empower parents.
Personal visits provide the opportunity to familiarize parents with child development information, increase understanding of their child’s behavior, and promote family bonding through involvement in age-appropriate activities.
Weekly playgroups enhance the child’s social skills through peer interaction.
Developmental screenings provide parents with the opportunity to address concerns, facilitate a support system, and practice parenting skills.
Lending library is available for parents to take books home and read to their children in an effort to advance literacy growth.
Resource network is available to connect families with the necessary community organizations based on their needs.
Expectant parents and families with children under the age of three will receive a $20 Wal-Mart gift card upon enrollment in our PAT program and completion of at least 5 personal visits by the end of the school year! Gift cards will be available until PAT funds are exhausted.
I invite you to come enjoy FREE refreshments and meet the families in our community at our weekly playgroup sessions. We meet every Wednesday from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. in the newly constructed PAT room at Kirbyville Elementary. There will be a drawing for a $10 Wal-Mart gift card for enrolled families in attendance at each of the remaining group meetings.
