With over 50 years experience in providing high quality Early Childhood Education, Communities United, Inc. gives preschool children and families an opportunity for growth through an environment that encourages participation and interaction in a full range of developmentally appropriate activities.
Our mission is to provide high quality education and family services to a diverse population of children during their early stages of learning. Communities United, Inc. actively serves families living in the communities of Arlington, Belmont, Brookline, Burlington, Needham, Newton, Waltham, Watertown, Wellesley and Woburn. Funded by Head-Start, our programs offer need-based financial support in hopes of helping to eliminate the barriers to education. While CUI serves children from the full socio-economic spectrum, our focus is on identifying the most at-risk families and ensuring that their needs are met. We strive to ensure the success of the child, empower the family, and strengthen the community.
From the moment a child starts in our program, we focus on building language and literacy. In addition to literacy support, our curriculum is designed around science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM), the creative arts, and daily music and movement activities. Families are encouraged to get involved in the classrooms through frequent family engagement activities. Our goal is to encourage parents to see themselves as lifelong learners, just like their children.
