Our ability to meet national and state education standards, along with supporting requirements of newly passed legislation, is a strong pillar of our program research and development efforts. Although we are proud of our distinction as a standards-aligned curriculum provider, we equally commend the accomplishments of our educational partners who are implementing our programs to address the health and wellness needs of students. Pete Silvius, Director of Whole Child Initiatives at Seguin Independent School District, shares about the impact of CATCH curriculum and professional development.

“I loved the ability to run through the CATCH Early Childhood activities, but also identify areas where difficulty may arise. Having the opportunity to discuss that (with CATCH) has made CATCH lessons easier for me.”

With spring around the corner, there is ample time to explore early childhood resources in preparation for summer camp activities and new school year planning. CATCH Early Childhood, our physical activity and nutrition curriculum for children ages 3-5, promotes school readiness goals and the fun of learning at an early age. Explore CATCH Early Childhood complete with professional development, and gain free access to age-appropriate sun safety and oral health curricula. Each of our oral health Pre-K carpet time sessions are aligned to a National Head Start standard!
