A huge #orange shout-out to Kris Walko and Wendy Malkiewicz for providing amazing support to licensed home-based childcare teachers and caregivers. Monthly, these two Quality Improvement Coaches and the Great Start to Quality Eastern Resource Center team facilitate a professional learning community and then continue that support through coaching opportunities. In addition, they put on a fantastic conference last week in which home-based educators from across the state joined in for an evening of learning and networking. Thanks for all you do to support our youngest learners! #SaginawISD
The Great Start to Quality Eastern Resource Center team was busy Thursday night hosting our 5th annual Home-Based Mini-Conference that supports teachers and caregivers who care for children in their homes.

Some of our team members also attended the Early Childhood Expo in Grand Blanc, with both events giving us opportunities to build relationships and learn together! #GreatStart
