If you want to know what is really going on at our center, just ask Ms. Paula, Ms. Wendy, or Ms. Crystal. While I might take the lead alongside our program supervisors, and teachers handle day-to-day classroom happenings, it is usually our amazing front desk staff and campus enrollment manager who are the keepers of the pulse of the entire center.  

It's our front office staff who are the front lines of school communication—answering the phones, greeting visitors, welcoming new families, and scheduling appointments. They are the keepers of school records, the schedulers of appointments, and the dispensers of sage advice. It's our front office staff who are always there with a tissue when a child’s feelings are hurt, with a calm voice when someone is upset, and with a sympathetic ear when teachers are stressed.  

I think we all know that our front office staff are the ones who keep things running smoothly. Maybe that’s why we are so eager to recognize this amazing team’s hard work. I feel so fortunate to work with this supremely competent team. With our learning center as home to nearly 180 early learning students, we know firsthand the important role this team has played in helping our families and staff each and every day.

So here is a big THANK YOU, a huge SHOUT-OUT to Ms. Paula, Ms. Wendy, and Ms. Crystal for all their hard work, creativity, commitment to our center, and commitment to the families we serve, and for being a joy to work with every day. We are so grateful for you and for the team players that you are, for helping each other, lifting each other up, and supporting one another as we continue to grow this center.  

I encourage you all to take a moment to say a warm thank you this week to these amazing ladies! Happy Administrative Professionals Week!
