VPK graduates are more prepared for kindergarten than those who don't attend preschool.

The ELC of Duval and PNC recently joined forces to host a rock painting session at a local housing community, bringing families together for a fun and educational event. It was inspiring to see kids of all ages participate in the creative activity while learning about valuable community resources. #CommunityEngagement #PNCRocks #Duval #Jacksonville #FamilyEngagement We believe that events like these not only provide entertainment but also serve as an opportunity for families to connect with each other and learn about important resources available in their area.
