Congressman Kevin Yoder visited El Centro’s Academy for Children this week. The Congressman toured our classrooms and spent time reading to our students. On the visit with Yoder was National Head Start Association Executive Director Yasmina Vinci, who was in Kansas City for a forum celebrating 50 years of Head Start. The forum featured local leaders, educators, early childhood specialists and advocates, discussing national and local early childhood education issues.
The Academy for Children is located in the Argentine area at 1330 S. 30th Street, Kansas City, Kansas. We are a nationally-accredited, dual language , year-round pre-K program, for children ages 2 1/2 to 5 years old.
We have a limited number of openings available and financial assistance is available for those who qualify. We also have a partnership with Head Start and DCF, and families can receive assistance with tuition by applying through these two programs. Please contact our Academy Director, Geralyn Sosinski at gsosinski@elcentroinc.com for additional information.
