Long Beach Public Schools welcomed parents and caregivers of incoming Pre-K and kindergarten students to Parent Academy: Junior Edition on August 23. The event took place in the library of Lido Elementary School.

Participants learned about ways to build readiness for school at home as well as learned how to support their children in the areas of early literacy, math, and science learning from early childhood teachers and administrators.

Attendees received a book to take home that was donated from partners at Scholastic and had the opportunity to participate in raffles to win additional books. Representatives from the Long Beach Public Library attended and shared information regarding library card applications, activities for students, and upcoming special events taking place at the public library.
