The NCUMC Learning Center has a new name and a dynamic new image to match. With the hiring of a new director in July 2012, the pre-school and kindergarten programs have once again reached sought-after status in the Charleston area. Under the new leadership, all pre-school and kindergarten classes have new focus on academics geared to the need of each child. In addition, the school lunch program is now master-minded by a graduate of Johnson and Wales Culinary Institute, whose attention to fresh fruits and vegetables is evident in every lunch served. Along with a complete renovation of the Learning Center facility, a new playground with the latest in surfacing (astro-turf over a padded sub-surfacing) will be in place by the end of April 2013. I wish I had pre-school-age grandchildren who could learn, play, and be cared for in this thoroughly re-newed facility.
