Early education costs more than college!?

Yes, you read the title correct. Recently an article came out stating that it costs more to educate a child under 5 than to pay for a college degree in Georgia. (Read the entire article here )

This makes it very challenging for all families to afford quality early programming, but especially families of low income. Thankfully, The East Lake Foundation believes that better is possible.

The East Lake Foundation views early childhood programing critical as achievement gaps are significantly narrowed for children who are able to receive high quality early childhood education. They also believe that this should be available for all children, which is why they raise scholarship support for 46 Villages children who attend Sheltering Arms. 

That means that these families are able to work and their children are able to receive high quality education....BRILLIANT!
