More than 556 people (about 175 families) came and enjoyed the learning opportunities. All 3k, ECSE, PREK, and Kinder children were invited to a free evening of exploration and discovery.
The purpose was to acknowledge that the childโs first learning years are the most important and parents are the first and most important teacher. VISD wanted to help parents navigate through all the possibilities of Early Education and the childโs beginning to an โ&โ. ๐๐ก
Twenty community members set up informational booths outside and inside the museum to provide possible resources and activities for the families. Attendance posters were placed strategically throughout the museum with people sharing the importance of good attendance with future academic success. The VISD transportation department shuttled parents back and forth from the Fine Arts building to the Museum to alleviate parking problems and provide an element of excitement. ๐ A new addition was the live entertainment provided for our children to see singing in a different light โ huge hit! VISD Teachers, staff, and museum board members helped to facilitate the learning experiences.
Every child took home a science book and many learning activities. ๐ The survey from parents expressed appreciation of the event and how much they enjoyed the museum activities and the resource opportunities. VISD is โFull STEAM Aheadโ making the most of the โWindow of Opportunityโ for our young learners. ๐ซ
