Success Story
Volunteering that last a lifetime!
Partners In Learning's Partners in Service program has been making a difference for over 20 years! Today one of our first volunteers and her beautiful daughter shared how it sparked her to continue all through her children’s school journey.  It's heartwarming to hear how this program has inspired generations to give back to their schools.
It is strongly recommended that each family at Partners In Learning volunteer six (6) hours each six (6) months. Hours are prorated depending on your enrollment date. The types of work a volunteer can perform are many and varied.

PIL Professional Tip of the Month
School's Out! Summer Fun Tips from Woods Early Learning Center Heather Fidler ☀️.
Summer vacation is a well-deserved break for children, but it's important to find ways to keep them engaged. Here are 3 reasons why summer engagement is important for school age children:
  1. Keeping them mentally stimulated helps them retain information and return to school ready to learn, preventing what we call the Summer Slide.
  2. Regular physical activity combats summer slump and promotes overall health and development.
  3. Summer is a great time to explore hobbies and interests that may not be emphasized during the school year. This fosters creativity, problem-solving, and social skills.
