The Young Five Program is currently accepting its first students, the School District of Lee County said in a news release.
The Young Five Program is for students who are eligible for kindergarten and would benefit from an extra year of social and emotional development.
“The Young Five Program will offer a learning environment tailored to meet the needs of students with late spring and summer birthdays who would benefit from additional time with school readiness,” says Dr. Bethany Quisenberry, Director of Elementary Curriculum and Instruction. “Young Five students will have a certified teacher who will provide engaging lessons in literacy, math, social/emotional, and motor skills developmentally appropriate for their age.”
