Hawaii's Good Beginnings Initiative Description In Hawaii, collaboration is the key ingredient for improving the lives of young children. By bringing together programs, policymakers, and parents, the Good Beginnings Alliance is improving the education and care of Hawaii's youngest children. The initiative has four essential components: Good Beginnings Councils (GBCs) Non-profit Good Beginnings Alliance (GBA) for administrative support and intergovernmental facilitation Interdepartmental Council (IDC) for cross-agency collaboration Service Integration Committee (SIC) of front-line workers in the early childhood community Partners Each of the four components involves a different set of partners, but together these include: county government child care service providers parents businesses non-profit agencies the faith community philanthropy State Departments of: Human Services Health Education Business and Economic Development Labor History and Development The roots of Good Beginnings run long and deep. The seeds of the initiative were planted over 20 years ago when the work of Dr. Calvin Sia on "medical homes," or comprehensive health services for children, shed light on the critical interconnection between the physical, social, and emotional health of children. This understanding eventually led public- and private-sector leaders to embrace the concept of a comprehensive early childhood education and care system for young children in Hawaii. In the 1990s, early childhood efforts that had long and parallel histories converged and evolved into a statewide early childhood initiative.

Hawaii Department of Education Making the Most of Your Children's Discovery Center Visit The Hawaii Children's Discovery Center is a place where children and families learn and grow together through purposeful play. What children get out of their visit is, in large part, determined by the amount and quality of time spent together in meaningful activities with their parents. Clearly, parents are the primary teachers in their child's life. Here at the Children's Discovery Center, we encourage and nurture those learning opportunities between parent and child by providing them with a stimulating and engaging learning environment where parents and children can explore and discover together. Following are a few ways that you can help to enrich your Children's Discovery Center experience, ones that will involve the whole family. Before Your Visit Allow your child to take part in planning for your Discovery Center visit. It is very empowering for a child to take part in planning family activities. Not only does this provide the child with decision-making responsibilities, but also it enables him to become an active participant in family affairs. Ways to include your child in planning your visit to the Children's Discovery Center include:

This same measure also authorizes the Department of Education (DOE) to assess tuition and other fees for adults enrolled in basic education classes, unless these adult students are eligible for certain tuition waivers. In a related measure, the Legislature requested the DOE to administer the general education development examination to qualified students at age 16, through the adult and community education program (S.C.R.174; S.R. 138).
