Education Counts Michiana seeks programs and initiatives that inspire and education our community. We are actively seeking programs that reach all age groups from pre-school through life long learning. This week learn about the physicality of Minds in Motion, how one scholarship is making quality early childhood education affordable, about A Kids Company About has a novel approach to experts and learning and how an after-school program in Benton Harbor is getting kids Fired Up.

Education Counts Michiana showcases some of the best programs and initiatives in education. We\'re always looking for ideas in teaching and learning that range from pre-k to lifelong learning. This week we visited the Learning Gardens in Elkhart, EdTech in the Bend, Dial-A-Story in LaPorte and Project Lead the Way in Berrien Springs.

This week on Education Counts Michiana, we highlight Citywide Classroom, teaching through AmeriCorps, enFocus, conversations with children about race, inclusive spaces for children, reading materials to alleviate barriers to the written word and advanced manufacturing training.
