Parent University

Parent University begins on February 28th and will continue every Friday until April 3rd. This is a wonderful experience for you and your children preschool age and younger. It is only from 9 until 10, but there are great ideas for incorporating learning into play. The locations offering Parent University are Maples, River Oaks, William Ford, Long, Lindberg, and Salina.
