LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Recognize children's needs Editor, the Leader-News:

Young children of the El Campo community deserve the best that we can give them. Week of the Young Child, held April 13- 19, is a time to recognize the needs of young children and thank the adults involved in their education and care.

Parents, teachers, caregivers and other adults play important roles in the lives of young children, and Week of the Young Child celebrates their efforts. We can show our support for early learning in our community by promoting early literacy programs, thanking teachers who care for our children and working to ensure that our public policies support early learning for all young children. Week of the Young Child is a time to focus our attention on bringing our community together for children.

Sincerely,

Valerie R. Quiñones

Child Find Coordinator

Region III Education Service Center

Early Childhood Intervention Program
