After a comprehensive search and an interview process that included staff, leadership, and parents, I am pleased to announce we have hired an outstanding Early Education Director, Stephanie Yamato, who will begin at VCS on December 3, 2018.  Stephanie comes with extensive experience in management and a love for young children and their families.  After owning her own successful day care center for four years, she has spent the last two years working with young children and also performing administrative duties as a Site Supervisor at the Leaven.  Stephanie's heart for Christian Education is evidenced by her desire to see children achieve academic excellence in an environment infused with the love of Christ.

Upon her arrival, Stephanie will spend the remainder of 2018 getting acquainted with staff, parents, students and our facility.  During this transitional phase of her leadership, Marie Murphy will remain the Interim Director.  As has been the case thus far, I will continue to be a support as well as an integral part of overseeing this process.

We are all looking forward to having Stephanie join the VCS Family!  Please join us for a Meet and Greet on December 5th from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. in the Elementary Library.  You will not want to miss this opportunity to experience her warmth and welcoming demeanor!

Thanking our Heavenly Father for His amazing guidance through this process!  Praying you have a blessed Thanksgiving filled with family, friends, and food!

Blessings,
