Community Professional Development Initiatives

Branches' Community Professional Development Initiatives - For over 18 years, Branches has been dedicated to providing high-quality early childhood education beyond the walls of our school, rooted in the belief that every child deserves an exceptional learning experience.

Our commitment extends beyond our classrooms; we are passionate about sharing our knowledge and practices with educators across the United States and abroad. To achieve this, we host an annual two-day Early Childhood Education (ECE) conference, attracting 200 to 300 educators each year. This event serves as a platform for collaboration, learning, and inspiration, equipping educators with the latest research and effective teaching strategies they can bring back to their classrooms.

In addition to our conference, we offer a variety of ongoing professional development opportunities, including on-site workshops, seminars, online classes and consulting. These programs are designed to empower educators, foster community, and ultimately enhance the quality of education that children receive.

To continue and expand these vital initiatives, we are seeking ongoing funding. This funding will help us cover the costs of organizing our annual conference, facilitating workshops, and developing new online resources that reach educators in underserved areas.

Your support will play a crucial role in creating a brighter future for children by investing in the professional growth of their educators. Together, with your support we can make a lasting impact on the early childhood education landscape.
