Free

Join the Mississippi Humanities Council, the Graduate Center for the Study of Early Learning, and the North Mississippi Education Consortium at Proud Larry’s on August 2 for “Ideas on Tap: Easy As ABC? Early Childhood Learning in Mississippi.”

With the new school year right around the corner, we’ll take the opportunity to focus on early childhood education in Mississippi. We’ll discuss the benefits and drawbacks of early childhood education, its effects on communities like Oxford, the history of pre-K in the state, and so much more. Panelists include Cathy Grace (Graduate Center for the Study of Early Learning); Tamara Bolt Hillmer (LOU Reads Coalition); and Michael Cormack Jr. (Barksdale Reading Institute). Kevin W. Frye (Lafayette County Supervisor and local attorney) will moderate the conversation.
