WSU Recognized for Madison's Maxwell Program Story by: WSU Office of University Communication Winona State University has been recognized by the Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota for the "Partnership for Lifelong Learning" at Madison’s Maxwell Children’s Center. WSU and partners Winona Area Public Schools, the City of Winona and Head Start have been awarded a 2006 Local Government Innovation Award for the Partnership for Lifelong Learning program, which provides extensive programming from preschool education to senior services. The award recognizes Phase I of this partnership--the opening of the Madison School Maxwell Children’s Center, which serves 30-38 children aged 18 months to 5 years old with an innovative full-service early childhood education program. The Partnership for Lifelong Learning is one of 17 program receiving awards this year. According to Jay Kiedrowski, senior fellow at the Humphrey Institute, the Partnership for Lifelong Learning deserves special recognition "for the fine performance of local government daily in providing critical services to the citizens of our state." Madison’s Maxwell Children’s Center opened in fall 2006.
