A COLLABORATIVE EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCE FOR CHILDREN IN LEWIS COUNTY
What is the United Learning Center?
The United Learning Center (ULC) will facilitate the comprehensive education of our community's youth through the founding entities' combined skills, resources, and connections. The ULC will be comprised of a high-quality, affordable early learning program for working families, an after-school mentorship program and summer engagement opportunities through the Boys & Girls Club of Lewis County, and the Discover! Children's Museum, which will ignite the love of learning in children of all ages.
Why is the United Learning Center vital to our community?
In Lewis County, only approximately 25% of children under five years of age have the opportunity to participate in a quality child care program; lack of child care centers playing a large part in this. Center numbers are on the decline, leaving families and children unable to access programs that promote child success.
Parents of infants and young children all across Washington struggle to find and afford high-quality, licensed child care, often paying more for child care than the cost of college tuition.
Project Goals
- To provide a collaborative educational experience for children ages 3 to 18 years old, including a quality early learning center for 80 kids, a state-of-the-art children's museum, and an after school mentorship program.
- To create an affordable childcare option for families in Lewis County, proving a high-quality, no cost day care with wraparound services for families.
- To help children achieve Kindergarten readiness.
- To build economic opportunities for our County through job creation and high-quality, affordable programming.
