All Pre-K students had the wonderful opportunity to enjoy a special read-aloud session with State Representative Jaclyn Ford. Her visit brought excitement and joy to our young learners as part of our Pre-K Week celebrations.

Pre-K Week is a time to celebrate early literacy and the foundational role it plays in a child's lifelong learning journey.

We extend a heartfelt thank-you to Representative Ford and to all of our community supporters who help make events like this so meaningful. Your involvement makes a lasting impact on the lives of our children. #4theT
