1.) INSPIRE Conference THANK YOU!
Thank you to all that were able to attend the INSPIRE conference on Thursday! It was really great to see so many of you in person and experience the awesome keynote speaker and breakout sessions! I am looking forward to more in-person events in the future. If you attended the event can you please take a few minutes to fill out the evaluation. Thank you!
2.) Dave’s New Cell Phone Number
My cell phone number has changed to 206-579-9581. Please feel free to text or call that number anytime if you need anything!
3.) Monthly Meetings with Dick Abrams – Sign up for a month:
Each month I meet with Dick Abrams, who started the Fulcrum ECE Fund that supports my position and our programs, to update him on Early Learning programming and needs in our archdiocese. As a part of that monthly meeting we have a program lead join for 15-20 minutes of the meeting each month to give him a virtual tour of their program space and talk about the history, things they are most proud of and needs for their program. Dick really enjoys these conversations and seeing all the programs. The meetings take place at 4pm on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. Please let me know if you would like to join one of the meetings this school year and I will get you scheduled on the calendar.
4.) LICENSED ONLY: DCYF is auditing MERIT accounts to make sure staff is up to date
DCYF is reaching out to licensed staff individually if they have missing items in their MERIT dashboard. The email is from DCYF and includes what items are missing and instructions on how to complete the item. If any of your staff receive this email and have questions about items that might be missing please have them reach out to me. Thanks!
Have a great week!
