The Shiocton School District is celebrating a successful first year of its child care center.
Director Samantha Curtiss says they opened it in their school to meet the needs of staff and the community. She says a lot of teachers have children, and it can be challenging looking for child care in the area.
High school students interested in teaching or child care also have a chance to work with the kids. Curtiss says they’re also open during the summer.
