childcare centers

California Governor signed a bill into law that limits environmental lawsuits against childcare centers. The measure aims to make it easier to open and expand childcare facilities by reducing litigation exposure under environmental review laws. Supporters say it removes a barrier to expanding childcare access, while environmental advocates have raised concerns about weakening review protections.

The Hands-On Science Center has announced a Fall Break Camp, offering children science-themed activities during the school holiday in Tullahoma. Details on dates, registration and programming are expected from the center. The announcement gives local families an educational childcare option for the upcoming break and highlights the center's ongoing role in informal science education for the region.
