“With each class, I grew as a teacher and developed a deeper understanding of early childhood education. On February 25, I was awarded my CDA credential! Without the T.E.A.C.H. MISSOURI Scholarship, I would not have reached this achievement. With the momentum and confidence I have gained through the CDA process, I plan to continue on to an associate's and then a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. Out of my greatest tragedy came my greatest passion, and a dream to be an Early Childhood Educator and T.E.A.C.H MISSOURI is helping to make that dream a reality. I can't wait to start on my associate's degree scholarship and continue growing as an educator!!” - Heather Dunn, child care educator, Pilot Knob, MO
