Family Corner

We are excited to welcome your child to the Williamsburg James City County Schools Early Childhood Program, Bright Beginnings. Our team at Bright Beginnings is dedicated to partnering with you and your child to ensure the best possible early childhood experience.

If this is your first time sending a child to school, we understand that you may have many questions. That’s why we have provided a handbook that addresses common concerns and general inquiries.

To keep you informed, your child’s teacher will send home newsletters, notes, monthly family activity calendars, and other important reminders. Please remember to check your child’s backpack daily to stay up-to-date.

We share a very important common interest – your child!  It is important to establish and maintain positive relationships through communication, cooperation, and collaboration. Children are the ones who benefit most from healthy, reciprocal relationships between teachers and families.  Families may request an interpreter for meetings or school events.

Our program has established numerous partnerships with local organizations, businesses, and educational institutions to provide children and families with additional resources, support, and opportunities for growth and development.

Families have access to many community resources, including libraries, recreation centers, counseling services, and support groups that offer educational programs, social activities, and more within the area.
