Last week, we celebrated the ribbon-cutting of our newest preschool, Bezos Academy Louisville – Riverport!  
 
This milestone would not have been possible without our incredible partnership with LDG Development. Riverport is our third preschool together, and now our Louisville-area schools can serve 280 children annually, expanding access to high-quality early learning opportunities for families across the community.  
 
A special thank you to Mayor Craig Greenberg, Lisa and Chris Dischinger, co-owners of LDG Development, Tammy Hawkins, metro council member for District 1, and the many community leaders, partners, and supporters who joined us to celebrate this new chapter.
