Saint Louis, MO / Jan 20 – Cornerstone Center for Early Learning announced today that the pilot program launched last spring, Hearts & Hands, will conclude by the end of February.
At the launch of the pilot, Cornerstone’s Board of Directors had been exploring expansion opportunities for several years, as the number of families on Cornerstone’s waitlist exceeds those the organization has capacity to serve. When the space at 5001 Pernod Avenue became available, it stood out to the Cornerstone’s Board of Directors for its history as an early childhood center and the opportunity to lease rather than purchase, making it an opportunity to explore expansion without moving forward with permanent plans.
After a full year serving families and children, the pilot program is coming to its conclusion. This allows Cornerstone leadership to focus on increasing the number of children at its original location.
