MVCDC will be in attendance this Thursday, June 11 at the 2026 Madison County Power of the Purse event!

🌼 Ever wonder how helps children learn and grow all year long?

We believe that play‑based learning is one of the most powerful tools for early development. Through the HighScope curriculum, children engage in hands‑on experiences that strengthen problem‑solving, encourage thoughtful decision‑making, and build independence step by step. When children explore, imagine, and create, they’re building the foundation for confidence and long‑term success.

Every child belongs at MVCDC. Our inclusive classrooms welcome all learners and provide individualized support so each child can shine. As we kick off summer, now is the perfect time to enroll for the upcoming school year. Visit mvcdc.org to get started!
