Your child’s early years are very important. Years of research tells us that 90 percent of a child’s brain growth potential is reached by the age of 5! That’s only 2,000 days to better ensure that your child builds a solid foundation that puts them on a path to future life and academic success. We know that children who receive high quality child care are more likely to enter kindergarten ready to learn and have a greater chance of long-term success in school and life. A child’s readiness for school depends on meeting his/her comprehensive needs, which includes: physical or motor development; language and literacy; social and emotional development; approaches to learning; and cognitive development. If a child enters school with deficits in these areas, it will be difficult for them to ‘catch up’. A child who starts behind is likely to stay behind. The positive effects from high-quality programs and the negative effects from poor-quality programs are magnified for children from disadvantaged situations or with special needs, yet these children are the least likely to have access to quality early care and education. It is the mission of The Early Learning Coalition of Hillsborough County (ELCHC) to make certain that high quality early childhood resources and programs are available to every child in all of our communities. Together we (parents, early childhood professionals, advocates, policy makers and local businesses) can demand, design and build a system of early childhood programs that includes, as minimum standards, what we know to be the necessary components of high-quality programs. The ELCHC has a voluntary quality improvement initiative for providers called Quality Counts for Kids (QCFK). This program offers area early childhood programs the opportunity to measure and improve their quality. The ELCHC provides access to trainings, technical assistance and financial supports to better enable programs to implement quality improvement plans and ultimately earn a Quality Star Rating. Programs participating in QCFK begin at a 1 Star Rating which exceeds current minimum licensing standards. For more detailed information about quality programs and the ELCHC Quality Counts for Kids Program (QCFK) go to the web at www.elchc.org. Click on Families and select Quality Counts for Kids from the dropdown menu. There you will find a listing of participating programs, program information as well as frequently asked questions.

  • Towards Trash Free Waters: Quantifying Potential Aquatic Trash Recovery in the Hillsborough River Watershed
    Towards Trash Free Waters: Quantifying Potential Aquatic Trash Recovery in the Hillsborough River Watershed Prepared for Nestlé Waters North America October 27, 2015 Prepared by Timothy G. Townsend (Principal Investigator) Max J. Krause Sarah A. Gustitus Jeremy Toms University of Florida Gainesville, FL 32611 i Executive Summary Despite advances in solid waste management and increased awareness of the negative environmental consequences of pollution, littering is still common in the US. Littering can be the result of carelessness, accidents, or intentional actions, but the effect is the same. In recent years, concerned citizens have increased their attention to litter in the Hillsborough River Watershed (HRW). The University of Florida (UF) research team collaborated with local municipalities and non-government organizations (NGOs) to quantify and map the quantity of collected litter within the HRW. Because much of the storm water within the HRW drains into the Hillsborough River, all of the litter within the watershed has the potential to become aquatic trash (PAT). The PAT that was collected in roadside and park cleanups before it made its way into the Tampa Bay or the Gulf of Mexico (recovered PAT) was cataloged into a database and mapped using ESRI ArcGIS software. Concentrations of recovered PAT were reported as pounds per acre for 1,015 cleanup events at 168 unique sites within the HRW from 2008-2014, shown in Figure E1. Additionally, educational campaigns such as storm drain markings and field visits by the WaterVentures mobile lab were mapped to identify where residents could be expected to have increased awareness of the negative issues associated with littering.

Box 1110, Tampa, Florida 33601 * These excerpts have been taken from the Historic Resources Survey Report with permission given by the Hillsborough County Historic Resources Review Board on December 15, 2003. The intention is to help provide targeted historical information on the water bodies in Hillsborough County. 1 Lutz (Stemper) Throughout most of the 19th century, northern Hillsborough County was settled with just a handful of homesteaders scattered across the landscape. In 1855 the state sold land around present day Lutz for one-dollar an acre. Despite such a giveaway, this section of the county still had few settlers. A colony of German Catholics established a community known as Stemper on the northwest shore of Lake Hanna in Township 27 South, Range 18 East, Section 13 during the 1890s. Led by Father Xavier A. Stemper, the immigrants created a school for area children and established a post office on November 17, 1893, with Father Stemper serving as postmaster. A stagecoach route went through the community, connecting Tampa to Brooksville. The turpentine industry dominated the area, and established a still in the heart of Stemper. By 1910, the community had workmen’s houses, a school, a grocery store, and the voting place for the district.i At the turn of the century, W.P.
