Early Childhood Education

The future of our community and the future of our state depends on early childhood education” –Mayor McTizic. Mayor McTizic outlined the importance of providing high-quality education that will improve student outcomes and create a path towards academic success.

Child Care

Affordable, high-quality childcare could make a world of difference for working parents across the state. Mayor McTizic joined TQEE to advocate for a Child Care Task Force that will address a growing crisis encountered by working parents of children under the age of five by developing a strategic plan to improve childcare programs across the state.

Mayor McTizic shares why it is vital to advocate for accessible childcare:

PreK

PreK is the foundation for long-term academic and career success. TQEE’s objective is to ensure that every economically disadvantaged 4-year-old has access to high quality Pre-K to address an immediate need in struggling communities by advocating for the expansion of TN-VPK.

Mayor McTizic described the importance of making PreK accessible for all communities, especially those that are in rural areas of the state.
