The mission of the Bennington Early Childhood Center (BECC) is to provide an intellectually
challenging, developmentally appropriate educational program for children age one to six. The
environment and program are designed to encourage each child to develop as an individual and as part of
a group, while exploration, positive social interaction, and emotional security are also fostered. The
Bennington Early Childhood Center is open to the public, serving children of all cultures, backgrounds,
and abilities.
