The partnership between Parent Villages and Waterford.org will support up to 750 families in the region to address kindergarten preparedness over the summer to help get our children ready for back to school in the Fall.
Mayor Domenic J. Sarno states, “I want to acknowledge and thank School Committeewoman LaTonia Monroe Naylor and the team at Parent Villages and Waterford for their compassion and support of our families and children. This summer learning program will help our families keep our children on track during the summer so that they are ready for their first day of school – at no cost to families. Such a great and heartfelt initiative to keep our precious children’s education on target and getting them ready to succeed.”
