Monday evening, the JSH hosted a middle school choir concert for the first time in years. Dawn Peterson and Matt Stauffer led the 6th and 7th-grade choirs in fall and winter songs. It was great to hear the results of the hard work the girls have put in. The hope is to grow this group into a high school choir in years to come.
Preschool is a proven investment for the future of Michigan. Children who attend pre-K are more likely to be eager to learn, read by the third grade, and attend higher education. Free pre-K also gives families money to allocate to rent, transportation, and college savings and attracts employers seeking to expand or relocate to Michigan by giving parents more safe, affordable options for their kids.
A majority of Michigan’s 4-year-olds now qualify for free pre-K, based on household income, including many families who may think they wouldn’t.
To apply and find a pre-K classroom near you, visit MiFreePreschool.org.
