Mini-Mustangs Three-Year Old Class This is our second year for this class and it has been a great
success! This program is offered by the
ECE (Early Childhood Education) program under the supervision of Elaine
Bowling, ECE Teacher here at Lakewood Ranch High School.
This is a class for 3 and 4-year olds that did not make the VPK
cutoff for the current year. It is
located in the same building as the Mini-Mustang VPK class. This class has lead teacher, Stacey McKeon, along with the third and
fourth year ECE students.
