What is School Readiness?

The term school readiness means that when children enter school, they are developmentally, physically and emotionally ready to learn. It does not mean that they know how to read or do math facts, but that they have had experiences during the first 5 years of their lives that have allowed them to grow and develop happy and healthy.
