Mission Statement
Primm ABC Child Care Center & Preschool in Seattle, Washington is a non-profit corporation that has been in operation since October 1970. It was organized to further the emotional, intellectual and physical development of children from a variety of races and cultures through educational, social and cultural programs and services. Primm was also organized to further the economic development of the African American community. Primm provides quality care that supports working families; in particular the single parent heads of household. Primm provides early childhood education to children ages 1 to 5. Primm ABC also provides school enrichment activities to children ages 6 to 12.
About This Cause
All activities in our program encourage a healthy self-concept and respect for individuality, family identity, and cultural background while avoiding sex-role stereotyping. We believe that children develop continuously through a series of stages at their own individual paces. They learn through self-directed interactions within an environment of concrete sensory experiences. For this reason our curriculum includes teacher initiated (structured) activities, free play, (child selected), large and small muscle activities, and time for children to interact with each other and teacher. We believe that parents are the single most important influence in a child’s life. The more involved the parents are in our program (at whatever level they are available and comfortable), and the more frequent the communication between parents and teachers, the greater will the child’s opportunity for development. We seek to provide a multi-cultural center, not just at holiday time but in the housekeeping corner, at circle time, on field trips, and in every other areas of our program. Primm is a non-profit corporation which has been in operation since October 1970. Primm has operated other sites at the Martine Luther King Jr. and Dearborn Park Elementary Schools for a Before and After School Program only. Primm has been accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) in 1994. We now participate in the Washington State Early Achievers Program. MISSION STATEMENT To provide learning experiences through meaningful play based on the child’s individual needs, interest and abilities that will build foundations for future academic skills. To provide quality care for the child, assist in meeting the needs of the community, and provide a setting where people of the community can work together for a common interest. PHILOSOPHY Our guiding philosophy is one of love, warmth and respect for the rights and needs of each other and is one in which the needs of the children must always come first. Discipline is based on positive reinforcement and adult modeling of acceptable behavior. We also encourage the children to be the best they can be. GOALS 1. To provide opportunities and experience according to each child’s level of comprehension and rate of growth. 2. To include desirable experience in social living, physical and emotional development in language, literature, science, music, art and creativity. 3. To encourage self-expression, instill appreciation for the world around them, and to stimulate curiosity of the children.
