Luzerne County Head Start Inc. will re-open 20 of its classrooms for in-person preschool services March 15 at 15 different sites in Luzerne and Wyoming counties.
It will be for 131 preschool-aged children â approximately 10% of children LCHS is funded to serve. Classrooms have been closed for in-person learning since March 2020, with the exception of two Wyoming County sites that opened for a brief period in November before closing again due to increasing COVID-19 cases.
âThe benefits of in-person preschool services for young children are invaluable. They learn social and emotional skills, get healthy meals and exercise, mental health support and other services that cannot be easily replicated online. We want our children back in the classroom. We want to make sure they are fed, they play, they exercise, they learn, they explore and they make new friends,â Luzerne County Head Start executive director Lynn Evans Biga said in a news release.
