Vickie Calderon - Mission Statement: "For 38 years, I made a commitment to educate the masses through early childhood education which provides the critical roots of every child. It is essential for children to embrace learning by play, exploration and discovery with a sense of curiosity and feeling of support. My journey as a mother, teacher, director, adjunct faculty, consultant and researcher had continued to propel my goal to empower teachers, parents and society to enforce the notion that it is the first three years of a child’s life that are crucial for a lifetime development. We must strive to be more than just educators; we must be advocates for our children. Creating a solid foundation is not something that can be done in isolation. It takes a village to raise a child, and our village must stand united."
