On Wednesday, March 12, the monthly All In For Kansas Kids webinar featured several schools discussing their experiences operating licensed child care facilities.
Representatives from Southern Lyon County USD 252, Kingman-Norwich USD 331 and Satanta USD 507 shared bright spots and lessons learned from their experiences. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE), Kansas State Department of Education (KSDE), Office of the State Fire Marshal and Child Care Aware of Kansas also shared resources. The webinar recording is now available on the Kansas Children's Cabinet and Trust Fund YouTube channel.
The Kansas State Department of Education is glad to support schools as they consider operating licensed child care to serve their communities. The Child Care Aware of Kansas Community Outreach and Engagement Team and a county's local child care licensing specialist are two excellent starting points in this process. Visit the Kansas Children's Cabinet and Trust Fund website to sign up for weekly email updates to stay up to date on early childhood resources in Kansas.
School leaders can contact Amanda Petersen, KSDE director of early childhood, amanda.petersen@ksde.gov, to discuss plans or request support.
