2020

All Vermont Early Childhood Educators

In 2020, there were countless Early Childhood Educators of the Year in Vermont, with each playing many incredibly important roles during the COVID-19 pandemic. To show our appreciation for their passion and steadfast commitment to our state’s youngest children during this historic time, we had some friends say thank you. We will be forever grateful for all that you did and continue to do to serve Vermont’s children and families. Thank you!
