Wilkes Barre School District, a recipient of one of these grants, has been working with local child care agencies to improve preschool quality. The Council has three (3) centers which operate within the Wilkes Barre School District...Kiddie Space Heights, Wilkes Barre and Heights. These centers have been provided with early childhood "coaches" as well as wonderful new classroom equipment and materials.
