NKY preschoolers take center stage in kindergarten readiness effort

Preschoolers across Northern Kentucky’s six River Cities are becoming storytellers, costume designers and performers through Students Create Change, an American Legacy Theatre program designed to help children build skills for kindergarten.

Funded by the R.C. Durr Foundation, with additional support from the Bellevue Education Foundation, the effort currently reaches 169 children in 12 preschool classes across Bellevue, Covington, Dayton, Ludlow, Newport and Southgate. EducateNKY helped connect American Legacy Theatre with participating preschools, bringing the program to five school districts and two Learning Grove locations.
