Ready to Learn
Through the Ready to Learn Initiative, funded by the U.S. Department of Education, CPB and PBS are partners in developing high-quality, educational media and resources to advance critical early learning skills for children ages 2-8 to help them succeed in school, work, and life.
In partnership with WQED, a veteran Ready to Learn station, we are deepening relationships with our Learning Neighborhood partners by providing PBS KIDS resources and programs to impact the educational outcomes of young children.
