We were honored to welcome Senator Paul Mark to 18 Degrees earlier this week! He toured our site while we discussed the impact state funding has on early education. Senator Mark also visited our dedicated teachers during their professional development day, sharing inspiring words about the power of advocacy and reaffirming the vital role they play in our community’s children and families. Thank you, Senator Mark, for your commitment to early education and for recognizing the incredible impact of our educators!
