Success by Six preparing kids for Kindergarten

Updated:

BOARDMAN TOWNSHIP, Ohio - A pavilion in Boardman Park became a center for learning on Monday afternoon.

Now in its second year, the Success by Six program helps young children understand what to expect when starting kindergarten and begin to make friendships before the school year even begins.

"The nice thing about it is they haven't had any experience. They haven't gone to any daycare or any preschool. We're able to get them in and get some testing done and we're able to start teaching them some of the basic skills they're going to need to go into Kindergarten," said Jim Stitt, Principal at Market Street Elementary in Boardman.

Children were treated to lunch by Panera Bread and WFMJ Today's Lauren Lindvig was also on hand for story time.
