Approximately 150 local Pre-K educators came together today at the ESC for a day of professional learning and collaboration at the Fall 2024 Pre-K Teacher Academy. The event offered educators valuable opportunities to explore best practices in early childhood education. The full-day academy featured sessions focused on enhancing teaching strategies and strengthening classroom instruction for the district's youngest learners. Teachers participated in professional development activities designed to support their important work with pre-kindergarten students. They also engaged in a plenary on "Unpacking the Standards," networking, raffles, and two breakout sessions. We were especially grateful for Diane Fox, the Deputy Director for the Division of Training and Technical Assistance for opening the plenary and Kim Davis and Elizabeth Sailer Agnew from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce for presenting. The successful event was made possible through the efforts of the organizing committee and generous support from sponsors, who helped create this valuable learning opportunity for early childhood educators. They include The Literacy Cooperative, Starting Point, The Martha Holden Jennings Foundation, East Cleveland Schools, Cuyahoga County Public Library, Invest in Children and the First Ring Schools Collaborative.

The ESC of Northeast Ohio & the First Ring Schools Collaborative hosted an E4Me Career Program on October 24 at the ESC. More than 200 high school students from schools from Cleveland and inner ring suburbs learned about their employment, entrepreneurship, enlistment and education opportunities after high school graduation. There were 40+ panelists/presenters that work in different fields as well as all branches of the United States military who had the opportunity to interact with the students. One of the most common pieces of advice from the panelists was the importance of young adults developing soft skills… having a good work ethic, integrity, responsibility, being on time, having good communication skills and showing proper manners.?
