Nurturing
Children & Youth
Children at Martin Luther King, Jr. Child
Development Center (MLK) feel like a family of friends surrounds
them.
Teachers encourage children to ask themselves, "How do my friends feel
about
it," before they act on something. This allows children to feel
comfortable
exploring their surroundings.
Teachers at MLK also encourage verbal
communication so that children learn to solve their own problems and
deal with disagreements in a positive way.
Children learn about diversity by using sign
language in the classroom. The use of sign language helps them
discover that it is ok to be different and if everyone was the same the
world would be boring.
Salina Area United Way scholarships help
many children go to caring preschools like MLK.
