TUPELO, Miss. (AP) — Some north Mississippi children will get a summertime prep course on what to expect in the coming school year.
Lee County School District is starting a three-week “Key Up for Kindergarten” program.
Children will attend classes taught by the district’s kindergarten teachers on weekday mornings from June 7 through June 25.
The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reported that spaces will be available on each kindergarten campus — Mooreville Elementary, Verona Elementary, Saltillo Primary and Shannon Primary.
