Thank you everyone who submitted written testimony, signed up to testify before the House Appropriations Committee in the General Assembly or was one of more than 550 people who signed the form letter we submitted in support of House Bill 736. If passed, this bill would increase the amount of funding the state would provide for the construction of a new Kent County Middle School!

Judy Center Early Learning Hub

Judy Center Early Learning Hub

Welcome to the Judy Center Early Learning Hub at Galena Elementary School! 
 
The Judy Center Partnership is a collaboration between community agencies in Kent County dedicated to providing comprehensive, community-based, early learning programs for pre-school children and their families. 
 
We believe that all children should enter school ready to learn and that their families are the foundation for their children’s early success.
