"Upon graduating, I joined Teach for America where I was placed in the early Ed field."

"I am the operational and instructional leader of the school at the early Ed centers. It's a one-man show. I'm the only administrator on campus."

"Every day is different. So it's super exciting."

"The ability to multitask, articulate clearly and concisely, and be a good listener are crucial skills."

"Seeing kids smile every day. There is no bad days at school every day is wonderful."

"Instruction is sometimes put on the back burner and that's my passion."

"Every day is different, every year the kids are different, but the families remember us. And they trust us with their kids."

"People who are passionate about the work. It's not about the money, the time commitment here is Major so someone who's passionate and can always keep students at the center of all decision making would thrive."

"Being an educator is more than just being a teacher or a leader. You are a therapist, the support person, an ear for families,"

"All of our Aid positions are Early Education AIDS are available to anyone who has a high school degree"

"Have those difficult conversations. They will make you uncomfortable but your success as a leader depends on them."

"I didn't know if I wanted to be an educator, but I wanted to explore other options."

"So don't let those...expectations determine what you do."
