Knowledge Quest’s Early Childhood Academy Program

Knowledge Quest’s Early Childhood Academy provides a safe, nurturing, and engaging learning environment where young children develop the academic, social, emotional, and developmental skills needed for lifelong success. Through high-quality early learning experiences, caring educators, and a play-based curriculum, we prepare children to enter Kindergarten confident, capable, and ready to learn.

Knowledge Quest offers complimentary full-day Pre-K for income-eligible 3- and 4-year-old children, helping build a strong foundation in early literacy, mathematics, social-emotional learning, creative arts, and kindergarten readiness.

In partnership with Porter-Leath and First 8 Memphis, Knowledge Quest provides comprehensive Early Head Start and Head Start services for eligible families. Early Head Start serves toddlers beginning at 12 months of age, while Head Start serves preschool-aged children. These comprehensive programs support children’s cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development while also providing family engagement, health, nutrition, and developmental services to help every child thrive.
