Child Development Academy


Mission:

The Children’s Development Academy affords all children in our community high-quality early education. Our vision is Best Start, Brightest Future, Every Child.

Fast Facts:

• Located in downtown Roswell

• Founded in 1968

• 240 children attend full-day early childhood education in nine vibrant classrooms—three each for Toddlers, Preschool and PreKindergarten

• The CDA program strives to prevent the Achievement Gap by Shrinking the Opportunity Gap that economically disadvantaged children suffer vis-à-vis more privileged peers.

• By focusing on our community’s most vulnerable, our program can:

  • Improve health outcomes and lower costs
  • Boost earnings; personal and corporate
  • Produce a higher rate of return on social spending: 7:1 dollar per investment for early education, and 13:1 when focused on high risk children
  • Reduce demand for prisons, dropout rates, and teen pregnancies
  • Return reliable, productive parents to the work force
  • Affect every child in a kindergarten classroom
