Congratulations to 13 dedicated, tenacious and extremely hard working Head Start staff who successfully completed the Monroe Community College (MCC) Early Care Certificate in just 3 years.  The culmination of their efforts came June 2 as they crossed the stage at MCC’s 59^th annual graduation ceremony at the Blue Cross Arena in Rochester, NY. This visionary, trailblazing group completed one class at a time offered by experienced professors at a convenient time and location that fit their needs and schedules.

Monroe Community College (MCC) Early Care Certificate is  the  college  equivalent of  a  CDA ( Child Development Associate Certificate),  which upon  completion will  qualify  a  candidate  to  be  eligible to  apply  for  a Teacher  Assistant  or  Early  Head  Start  Teacher  positions.  ABC  in  partnership  with  MCC is  looking  to  offer another  opportunity  for  staff  to  pursue  the  Early Care Certificate.   Interested?   More  information will  be  distributed  during the upcoming 2022 Preservice in  August.
