WHAT WE DO
Cradle-to-Career Education
The HUB Augusta Collaborative believes that educational quality and level of educational attainment are factors that play an important role in shaping a person’s life, including job and career prospects, income and resiliency, and future opportunities. It is also true that an educated workforce can be a critical driver of a community’s overall economic prosperity.
The educational cycle begins in a child’s infancy. Participation in a quality early childhood education program for children under age 5 is an important factor in a child’s long-term success.
INVESTING IN EDUCATION
Within the community, there are several licensed early childhood education programs, including the YMCA Child Development Academy, EOA Head Start, and Heritage Learning Academy. However, economic challenges led to the eventual closure of the former Westabou Montessori School.
The HUB Augusta Collaborative is currently working with partners to develop a comprehensive educational plan that looks to address the community's needs. The plan includes partnerships with the TGR Learning Lab, Augusta University's College of Education and Human Development, the Paulette Harris Literacy Center, RISE Augusta, and others.
