Mariner Montessori Celebrates Winning Work Together Wednesday Award from TXAEYC

Mariner Montessori is thrilled to announce that our innovative blindfolded Easter egg hunt has earned us the prestigious Work Together Wednesday Winner award during the 2023 Week of the Young Child (WOYC) celebration, hosted by the Texas Association for the Education of Young Children (TXAEYC). Our team's dedication to fostering early childhood development and promoting the importance of quality early education has not gone unnoticed, and we are honored to receive this recognition.

WOYC is an annual event held from April 1st to 7th, celebrating our youngest learners, their families, educators, and the significance of early childhood education. This year's theme, "Texas Together," highlights the collaborative efforts of TXAEYC, ChildCare Education Institute (CCEI), and early learning programs across the state to raise public awareness about the importance of creating supportive environments for early childhood development.

As part of the WOYC celebration, TXAEYC encourages participants from various backgrounds, including teachers, directors, educators, trainers, organizations, college students, student organizations, and parents, to showcase their creative activities that exemplify Texans working together in early childhood education. Participants share their WOYC celebration and activities on social media using the hashtag #WOYCTEXAS and tag @TXAEYC.

Mariner Montessori's winning entry showcased our blindfolded Easter egg hunt, an inclusive and engaging activity that aligns with the spirit of Texas Together. As a result, we will receive free staff trainings from the ChildCare Education Institute, books for our school, and public recognition on TXAEYC's social media accounts and monthly e-newsletter. Additionally, our amazing teachers, who give their best to our students every day, will receive a child development and learning course from CCEI, the WOYC partner.

We're overjoyed to share the WOYC Winner 2023 award with our community and remain committed to working together to nurture every child's potential. Mariner Montessori would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to TXAEYC for recognizing our efforts in promoting quality early childhood education. We look forward to continued collaboration and success in our mission to provide exceptional learning experiences for young children.
