Brown County Schools is leveraging grant funding from Early Learning Indiana, Brown County Community Foundation, and the Indiana Department of Education’s Explore, Engage, Experience (3e) program to renovate its Early Education Center with a new toddler classroom, food prep area, two toilet rooms, and a health clinic area. This renovation enables the center to serve 10 additional toddlers and eight infants. Brown County High School students in the Early Childhood Education dual-credit pathway will also have expanded opportunities to care for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers as they earn Child Development Associate (CDA) credentials.
