One in four Latino public school children in Georgia drop out prior to graduation. Los Niños Primero works to improve this outcome by preparing Latino preschoolers for the rigors of the classroom, setting them up for academic success. We also empower parents to skillfully assist their children throughout the educational journey.

Testimonials
My son Joshua loves Los Niños Primero! He has learned many things and is more sociable. He loves his art and yoga class from Saturday School. If he were able to, he would go to Los Niños Primero daily.
Wherever he goes, he talks about the program. It makes him very happy. Thank you very much for everything you do for our children and the time that the staff dedicates.
Pamela Buenrostro, Parent
Volunteering at Los Niños Primero has been a blessing for me, it has helped develop me as a future educator. This program and working with the children has granted me the patience to work with different mindsets. I believe that children are the future of the world and I hope that I have influenced the children in some sort of way.

Los Niños Primero has a great impact on the children. As an art teacher, I’ve noticed a great improvement in their fine motor skills, like using the scissors properly and cutting out shapes with more precision. I also notice improvement in their ability to pay attention in small group activities.
It is amazing to see how their English has improved. At the beginning of the year they were very quiet, but now they express their ideas enthusiastically. It is great to see the kids excited about learning!
