New St. Paul Head Start Agency in Detroit had 2 very special visitors today! Governor Whitmer and Ryan the Lion joined the students and staff of the school for story time and a reading of The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Following the entertaining reading from the Governor (including encouragement to eat fruits and veggies!), the teachers shared some of the impressive work that the students were doing in the classroom. From reimagining the big bad wolf as a nice wolf, to teaching sign language to a group school sing, it is very clear that the team at New St. Paul Head Start Agency is doing amazing work as early childhood educators. As we round out March and the celebration of Reading Month the Governor encouraged the children to continue reading not just this month but every month – we could not agree more!
I had a chance to sit with Governor Whitmer following to discuss the critical role that professionals caring for infant, toddlers and preschool play. It was inspiring to be at New St. Paul Head Start Agency and we celebrate these professionals today and every day! And you can celebrate Infant, Toddler and Preschool Professionals in your life too!
