Program
HIPPY recognizes that parents are their child's first and most important teacher and helps them work with their four and five year-olds at home. The program helps these children build their skills and confidence before starting school. Parents receive weekly home visits from a trained home visitor. Home visits include role-playing, learning packets, storybooks, and materials. The HIPPY program follows the BCPS school calendar. HIPPY helps parents make a strong home school connection.
All Ages

English
Weekly home visits are made by trained paraprofessionals who role play scripted activities with parents. A parent is requested to work with each child 15-20 minutes each day to support classroom instruction beyond the home visit. Families with children in pre-kindergarten in certain Title I schools are eligible to participate in this program.
