THIBODAUX, La. — ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ is partnering with Ascension Parish Government to provide a team of specialists to establish the Smart Start Ascension Early Childhood Learning Academy , a Type III early learning center in Donaldsonville. Program development and a continued operational framework will be in collaboration with Ascension Parish Government and members of the ÐÓ°É´«Ã½\u2019 specialist team.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Prior to development of the early learning center, families in the Donaldsonville community found it difficult to obtain quality childcare so crucial to child development.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, many families either do not have access to or cannot afford such environments for their children. This lack of access often leads to low academic performance within elementary schools, low retention rates in high schools and \u2013 in some instances \u2013 higher rates of incarceration as adults. The partnership between Ascension Parish Government and ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ works to change that dynamic,\u201d said ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ Assistant Professor of Teacher Education and LCA Executive Director Dr. Mistie Perry Lasseigne.<\/span><\/p>\n

The center\u2019s framework will be centered on promoting children\u2019s self-awareness, competence, self-worth and physical well-being, while also providing families support in assisting children to accomplish these goals outside of the classroom. The specialist team will work to develop and support strong relationships with enrolled children, children\u2019s families and the local community while embracing diversity, inclusive practices and mutual respect.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful, humbled and incredibly excited about becoming such a large part of a project that will shift the trajectory of future generations. Our hope is that this project will serve as the model for other communities across the country to recognize the importance and significance of Early Childhood Education\u201d said Dr. Lasseigne who is a <\/span>graduate of ÐÓ°É´«Ã½\u2019 Birth to Five\/Early Interventionist Education (BFED) undergraduate program, the ÐÓ°É´«Ã½\u2019 Masters of Curriculum and Instruction Early Childhood program, and the LSU Doctorate of Philosophy in Curriculum and Instruction Early Childhood program.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Birth to Five\/Early Interventionist Education (BFED) undergraduate program at ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ is the only program of its kind in the state and supports the initiatives of the NAEYC and CEC National Standards for young children by teaching practitioners key early learning concepts and fostering early learning skills in children from birth to 8 years old.
