Soirée For Literacy

The Literacy & Learning Center is staging its Soirée for Pre-K at The Vineyard at High Holly on Saturday, July 22. It’s an evening of dinner, drinks, and dancing, and everyone is invited to attend.

The music will be provided by Steel Toe Stiletto, a band formed by friendships between some of the Southeast’s most impressive vocalists and musicians. They’re multi-year winners of The Knot’s Best of Weddings and Couples’ Choice Awards, and they cover favorites across genres and decades.

All proceeds benefit The Literacy & Learning Center’s new pre-K program in Highlands. A response to the growing demand for additional early childhood education in the community, this initiative aims to bridge the gap and provide a nurturing and comprehensive learning environment for children in need of pre-K education.

The pre-K program at TL&LC in Highlands will offer a curriculum that aligns with the rigorous standards set by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction. Through a play-based and child-centered approach, young learners will engage in activities that enhance their language and literacy skills, develop mathematical and scientific thinking, nurture social-emotional well-being, and promote physical growth.

“We are delighted to introduce the NC-certified pre-K program at The Literacy & Learning Center in Highlands,” said Bonnie Potts, the center’s Executive Director. “Our goal is to provide a supportive and enriching environment that prepares children for future success.”

The center’s state-of-the-art facility has been purposefully designed to create a safe and stimulating learning environment. Classrooms will be equipped with age-appropriate resources, technology, and materials that encourage exploration, creativity, and critical thinking. TL&LC is committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive space that fosters the holistic development of each child.

The Literacy & Learning Center recognizes the importance of community involvement in promoting educational excellence. The center will actively seek partnerships with parents, caregivers, and local organizations to build a strong support network and ensure the success of every child enrolled in this exciting new pre-K program.

The Literacy & Learning Center is committed to ensuring that every child receives individualized attention and support. Highly qualified and dedicated educators will guide students through their learning journeys, fostering a love for learning and creating a strong foundation for future academic achievements.
