Parents Getting Involved (PGI)
Mission Statement
KSC-CDC PGI’s mission is to further enrich the KSC Child Development Center (CDC) and the children’s learning experience through activities, beyond the CDC’s means, while creating a valuable network of parents and CDC staff.
What does the PGI do for the KSC-CDC?
Every person who has a child enrolled in the KSC CDC is a member of PGI.
Many activities that your children participate in are funded by PGI. PGI is made up of parents who volunteer their time to organize and run events that are held throughout the year. These events usually correspond with the themes being taught that week at the CDC and usually take place during CDC school hours. PGI also buys toys, books, and other classroom items for the children at the CDC at the request of the teachers and administrators. This is all paid for through PGI sponsored fundraising efforts and book fairs.
