Description

CityHealth and the National Institute for Early Education Research are co-hosting this webinar on cities' efforts to plan and prepare for the upcoming school year. As we close out a school year that was fundamentally altered by the COVID-19 pandemic, Pre-K programs in cities across the country are planning for an uncertain fall.

During this webinar we'll discuss:

  • How are these programs adapting to the realities of social distancing and distance learning?
  • How are they preparing to safely meet the needs of families, teachers and most importantly the young children in their classrooms?

  • Gibbie Harris: Director, Mecklenburg Public Health
  • Joe Francaviglia: Executive Director, Strong Schools Maryland
  • Leslie Mckinily: Deputy Chief, Office of Early Childhood Education, Chicago Public Schools
