ECFE Meeting Update
The Early Childhood educators gathered at the MRVED on August 8 for their annual best practice meeting. The day started with a phone conference with the Minnesota Department of Education about the new Parent Aware 4 Star Rating program as well as the Early Childhood Scholarships available. Next, the group split into educators, parent educators, and coordinators to network. There was some great discussion in both groups, and all walked out with some ideas that can be used in their classroom. Brandon spent a little time talking about technology and the group participated in an activity that really made them think. It was an awesome time with some awesome people!
