You might not recognize it if you have not been to the Northern Door Children’s Center recently. The early childhood center in Sister Bay is wrapping up its capital projects, paid for by its $3.6 million Essential Campaign that transformed the space. Most of the transformation occurred during its second phase, which saw it reconfigure and expand its infant and toddler classrooms, create a flexible indoor and outdoor classroom, and shift its kitchen, library, and administrative offices into larger spaces. The improvements will allow Northern Door Children’s Center to take in approximately 40 more students and prepare for next fall when it offers full-day 4K along with Gibraltar Area Schools. Karen Corekin-DeLaMer from the Northern Door’s Children’s Center says she still revels in the building’s transformation and thanks the donors for helping it happen.
