Scholarships
Professional development and the recognition of excellence in the field of early childhood education are of critical importance to Kenyon Chapter. Kenyon Chapter’s awards and scholarships celebrate those dedicated to the field of early childhood education and acknowledge dedicated professionals whose work impacts the quality of care for young children and their families. Our scholarships enable our members to further their education in the field of early childhood studies and pursue higher credentials that will help individuals advance in the field. The awards bring honor and attention not only to individual award recipients, but to the early childhood profession and Kenyon Chapter as well. In order to identify professionals dedicated to the needs and well being of children and their families, the Awards Committee depends upon the membership to amplify the qualifications of themselves and their peers.
