Pre-K 4 SA understands that you want professional learning that helps you make a powerful impact on children’s lives. That’s why we design every workshop, seminar, and coaching session to produce the maximum takeaway and beneficial “Aha!” moments specifically for early childhood educators.

The Professional Learning Department at Pre-K 4 SA consists of 16 learning specialists dedicated to mentoring and educating early childhood education teachers, leaders, coaches, and specialists.

Our purpose is to increase the number of highly skilled Pre-K through 3rd-grade educators in San Antonio, improve teacher credentialing, serve as the pipeline for ECE leadership, and increase the number of accredited ECE Centers in the city.
