The Maine Association of the Education of Young Children asks the state to come together for children during the Week of the Young Child, April 24-28. As part of the national Week of the Young Child celebrated across the country, Maine is honoring young children and all those who make a difference in children’s lives, according to a news release from the organization.
“All young children need and deserve high-quality early learning experiences that will prepare them for life, and Maine has a great opportunity to do our part to help young children,” said Tara Williams, executive director of MaineAEYC, in the release. “Week of the Young Child is a time for Maine to celebrate our educators and recognize the importance of the policies that bring early childhood education to young children.”
