In the Education Department, we recognize the importance of the earliest years as a time of rapid growth and development. We work to facilitate development of skills in the areas of play, social, self-help, speech and language, motor, and cognition, by providing ample opportunities for growth and learning.

Integration of children with disabilities and their typical peers continues in our pre-school program. In addition to our three classes at the Johnson City site, we also operate "Special Classes in Integrated Settings" at the Head Start in Endicott and the Discovery Center in Binghamton. Here HCA children are able to learn side by side with Head Start and Discovery Center children.

In collaboration with the integrated pre-school classrooms, HCA participates in a Universal Pre-K program  available to those children who will be of Kindergarten age the following school year and reside in the Johnson City school district.

HCA operates 8 classrooms in 3 locations, Johnson City, Endicott, and Binghamton. Class hours at the Johnson City site are 8:30 AM - 11:30 AM and 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM; Endicott site: 8:30-11:30 a.m. and 12:45-3:45 p.m.; Binghamton site: 11:45 a.m. - 2:45 p.m.
