Preschool Teacher Heidi Lindner would like to nominate Preschool Support Aide Hailey Henry for an Orange Spot Recognition! Hailey leaped into her new role with energy, heart, and a clear passion for early childhood education. She’s not only driven to grow—she is growing, and fast. Yesterday, Hailey achieved a major milestone by passing her Child Development Associate (CDA)—a nationally recognized credential for early childhood educators. But she’s not stopping there. Hailey has already begun her next journey by enrolling in courses to earn her Associate of Arts in Child Development and is investing in herself and in the children and families we serve. Way to go, Ms. Hailey!
