Report: The Children’s Center is working on installing two smart boards. There will be one at each site with the one at the James Avenue site being portable to use in multiple preschool rooms. These smart boards will assist the teachers in lesson planning as well as enhance the program’s “Let’s Move” curriculum. The grant money will help fund this new innovative project.
