Jennie Stuart Health employees with young children will have an opportunity beginning next month to send their children to Inspire Early Learning Academy.
MLK Early Learning Center Principal Kim Lint says they currently have 128 children enrolled in the daycare and 159 in the preschool program at the building. Earlier this year, JSH donated $400,000 to help renovate the facility.

She adds the maintenance staff under the leadership of Trevor Herndon have done a bulk of the work and that means there is still money to finish more rooms.
