DCF names Library Square School in Kenosha as a Rising Star

To honor child care providers and in celebration of Provider Appreciation Day, the Department of Children and Families has selected six Rising Star providers, including one of the 20 Active Early pilot sites. 

Library Square School is a shining example of how thoughtful changes can have a big impact. These child care providers know that physical activity is good for a child's body and mind. To encourage this, teachers had led play that involved physical activity. However, with the support of YoungStar, a Department of Children and Families initiative, and with Active Early, a Department of Health Services program, the children are now taking the lead on being healthy.
