Administrative Reports
Kindra Szarka, principal at the Early Childhood Center was present to discuss how they are connecting more with parents. One program they are utilizing is Class DoJo. This allows parents to see what their children are doing and the teachers will share celebrations with parents. They host Parent Nights for the EIBI Program. Here, they discuss with parents what the students are working on and how the parents can carry this into the household. This gives many parents time to socialize, allowing them to provide guidance and companionship to each other.
