ABOUT FACE

The Bureau of Indian Education's (BIE) early childhood education office provides a Family and Child Education (FACE) program which emphasizes kindergarten readiness through collaboration among families, local resources, and schools – which is critical for students’ academic success. The program includes parenting education to support student development from the earliest years, providing developmentally appropriate resources guiding daily family involvement.

FACE supports these components:

  • Family Enrichment Services (Prenatal to 3 Years)

  • Prekindergarten Services (4-5 Years)

Each site has the authority to determine which component(s) they want to implement. The BIE evaluates each component independently twice a year.

  • Encouraging early literacy and numeracy development

  • Empowering families as their child’s first and most influential teacher
