Event Description
Kids are our future! At age 5, 80% of brain development has already occurred.
You will experience the importance of early education. Learn why the Reggio-Emilia inspired furnishings we provided are the “Third Teacher” in the room at Starfish Academy, a nationally accredited inclusion program serving children of various abilities 18 months to five years old. See for yourself why our grant helped create a new, welcoming and authentic learning environment that inspires curiosity and collaboration. Learn why the new furniture reduces stress improves mood, enhances concentration, and supports emotional regulation – particularly when sensory issues are present.
We will take small groups through various learning stations starting at 5:30. The last group will start no later than 6:00.
