Much gratitude to Kimberly Anakata who logged countless hours ensuring our transition from the parent yahoo group to the parent google group. We are so appreciative of her talent and persistence in getting this tool in place for our incoming families and keeping it viable for our learning community. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Please welcome Danny Burr as a Home Sweet Home substitute teacher. Danny is a photographer who taught preschool many years for Marin Day Schools. Our summer interns noted how quickly he learned children's names! Danny is interested in nature activities and messy Art. He will be supporting staff vacations full time through August 5th.
The Alternatives in Action website makeover is complete and all HSH families are encouraged to check it out at http://www.alternativesinaction.org/! Much hardwork went into this piece and the Home Sweet Home section seeks to represent the quality feedback from our PAC discussions throughout the year. Many thanks to Morgan Cleveland (AIA Fund Development) and Apolonio Valdivinos (AIA Board Member) for making this possible!
Kathleen has been asked to take on the West Alameda Community Programs director position. She will support after school youth development for Alternatives in Action at this location through coordination of services and grants management. She is delighted and thrilled and has agreed to do so with the understanding that she will remain 100% Home Sweet Home Program Director. As we determine needs and capacity, Home Sweet Home teachers will be asked to support key pieces to enable her transition. This is a wonderful opportunity that supports our staff retention - by identifying the talent and capacity of our HSH teachers, we are able to provide some stipend roles! It is very heartening for Home Sweet Home's success to be recognized in this way. More updates at our next PAC meeting!
