People Incorporated has partnered with the Ballad Centers for Early Learning to relocate its Head Start classrooms serving children ages three and four in Abingdon and Lebanon to new, state-of-the-art facilities. These relocated classrooms are a result of collaboration between Ballad Centers for Early Learning, Washington County Public Schools, Food City, and the Wellspring Foundation.
“We are excited about moving these classrooms to new locations where working families can enjoy full-day childcare through the help of our partners,” said People Inc. President and CEO Bryan Phipps. “People Inc. has been providing quality early childhood education services to families for 60 years and we plan to continue that same quality education with enhanced facilities and hours that make full-day care more accessible for our families.”
Abingdon Head Start will now be provided at the EO Regional Workforce and Child Development Hub at 300 Towne Center Drive. The Fox Meadows classroom in Lebanon has relocated from 178 Fox Meadows Drive to the Ballad Center for Early Learning at 554 Clydesway Drive in Lebanon.
People Inc.’s Early Head Start program serving children up to age three in Abingdon will remain in its original location at 152 Highland Street Southeast.
The new, state-of-the-art facilities are accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), underscoring the agency’s commitment to excellence. With the invaluable support of its partners, People Inc. is now able to offer an expanded array of resources and wraparound care, ensuring that families receive the support they need.
People Inc.’s Head Start program offers comprehensive education and whole family support for income eligible families of children ages three to four, while the Early Head Start program supports children and families from prenatal to age three.
