Families First in Cabarrus County, a nonprofit 5-star immersion and bilingual preschool, has helped families with essential or frontline workers by opening a school-age children classroom to offer a safe education space. But that classroom revealed struggles families face in communication with the school system. Shown here is a Families First facilitator and three school-age students.
Families First in Cabarrus County never shut its doors when the pandemic started. Instead, it opened a classroom for school-age children of families with essential worker parents.
While United Way of Central Carolinas has helped supply Families First with PPE and cleaning supplies, Operations Director Aurora Swain said people have been constantly donating. Churches and even past families have sent in cleaning products to help keep the preschool operating safely. Shown here is a parent whose child was a student at Families First last year.
