Head Start staff completes
MCC Early Care Certificate

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 59th 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.
