Pacekids Programs is excited to be opening a brand new South School for its Special Needs ECS Preschool & Kindergarten Program, in Fall 2017. Located in Calgary’s SE neighbourhood of Sundance, the new school will feature up to six adaptive, resource-filled classrooms and will be 12,000 square feet – more than double the size of their current south facility. With industry-leading equipment and resources like a sensory movement gym, outdoor adaptive play space and speech-language resources in every classroom, this new location will provide the very best therapeutic and educational option for Calgary’s special needs kids!
Pacekids Programs is a Calgary-based nonprofit organization that strives to offer excellence in the therapy, education and family empowerment of children with special needs. Pacekids provides tailored, adaptive early childhood education for children with special needs at two Calgary locations: one in the south (opening Fall 2017 in Sundance at 23 Sunpark Drives SE) and one in the north (808 55th Avenue NE). The Pacekids team, comprised of early childhood educators, preschool teachers, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, physiotherapists, behavioural strategists, psychologists, child development assistants and a dedicated support team, executes both multidisciplinary and speech-language enhancement programming.
If you are the parent of a youngster who would benefit from an adaptive education or know someone who is, be sure to check out all that the new Pacekids Sundance Preschool & Kindergarten has to offer!
