Voices for Children Advocacy Day
On March 27th all New Horizon Academy center directors will be attending the Voices for Children Advocacy Day at the State Capitol. This day is for early care and education professionals to stand up and be counted as a voice for children. The theme for 2008 is Plant the Seeds:Help Children Bloom and providers will help children make paper flowers to bring to the capitol. New Horizon Academy is proud to be a cosponsor of this event.
