Director’s Corner – Janice Barnes

Director’s Corner Fall 2023
Kindness is sweet. The theme for Kids’ B.A.S.E. and The Little School for the 2023-2024 school year is
Candyland. The building is decorated in a Candyland theme with lollipops, candy buttons, peppermints
and a Candyland path that runs throughout the entire hallway. The children and parents walked into this
magical world on the first day of school. The meaning behind the theme goes along with our work with
the New York State Pyramid Model for Social Emotional Development. The Pyramid Model is a tiered
public health approach to providing universal support promoting wellness, targeted services to those
who need more support, and intensive services to those who need them. With a focus on building
positive relationships and creating supportive environments, all staff promote skill-building around
emotional literacy, positive peer interactions, self-regulation and problem-solving. Serving Scarsdale
families for more than 40 years, Kids’ B.A.S.E. is licensed by New York State Office of Children and Family
Services, accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, a Quality Stars
New York participant, and recognized as a model of before-and after-school enrichment programs.
