INDIANAPOLIS — Martin University is typically an institution of higher education, but parents can soon use the school for early childhood education .The school is launching a pre-kindergarten program within its existing Care and Learning Center starting on Sept. 9. Thanks to a grant, the school will be free to the public.'It just gives kids a step up,' said Dr. Rebecca Doane, the head of Martin University's Care and Learning Center.
A study from Indiana University Southeast found the average yearly cost for full-time childcare is $7,957 for preschool-age children.The free pre-K at Martin is an expansion of the university's free day care for students housed within the Care and Learning Center.'We have students who drop their kids off here, and their kids feel like they're going to college already,' Doane said.
