📚 Recently, we were honored to welcome Tennessee Commissioner of Education Lizzette Reynolds and members of her team to the Summer Learning Camp at #LearningWayElementarySchool!

During her visit, Commissioner Reynolds toured several classrooms, observed #student learning in action and met with educators who are making a difference every day. Our #students and staff represented Learning Way and #BedfordCountySchools with excellence, showcasing their hard work, enthusiasm and commitment to learning. ⭐

Commissioner Reynolds left impressed by what she saw, and we couldn't be prouder of the incredible work taking place in our Summer Learning Camps across Bedford County Schools! 🎉

The visit was a wonderful opportunity to showcase the exceptional teaching and learning happening every day in our schools.

🌟 Why Does Pre-K Matter? 🌟
Going to a structured pre-K program helps children succeed in school long term. 🧠It builds strong early reading and math skills, improves focus and self-control and increases the chances of graduating from high school. Children also learn important social and emotional skills such as managing their emotions, showing empathy and following classroom rules and routines.📚
