ABOUT THIS PROJECT
JoAnn McManus Academy is a small pre-school in an impoverished area that seeks to educate and help young children to have a positive learning experience as their first introduction to school. Students attending JMA are generally 3-6 years old, but sometimes as young as 2 years old.
The shoestring budget at JMA comes from minimal fees that are charged the families of the students and the dedicated support of Elyse McManus, granddaughter of the school’s namesake and aspiring educator
