Northern Door Children’s Center Community Relations Coordinator Karen Corekin-De La Mer says you can always learn from kids, even if it took a pandemic to find out. Like many early childhood facilities across the country, the Sister Bay-based Northern Door Children’s Center has been operating at a lower capacity since the pandemic took its hold in March. Teachers have learned how to be interactive with their families even on days where they can meet in person. Corekin-De La Mer says seeing the resiliency of their kids has been great to see, even among its youngest of students.
Northern Door Children’s Center is also operating on a cohort model to make sure students and teachers from different classrooms do not mix to help keep as many people in the building and healthy as possible.
