The Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning (DECAL) is now offering families the ability to search for child care for school age children enrolled in distance learning. With many parents returning to work, families are not always able to stay at home and assist their children with virtual instruction. The search is offered on www.qualityrated.org or by calling 1-877- ALL-GA-KIDS.
“School age children are returning to their classes, with
many school systems opting for distance learning through virtual classes,” said
DECAL Commissioner Amy M. Jacobs. “We are hearing from parents who, because of
work commitments, cannot stay home with their children. Others might not feel
qualified to assist their children and give them the best experience. In this
pandemic, Georgia’s child care industry stands ready to assist school age
children and their families and we appreciate them answering the call.”
