Last week at the National Head Start (NHSA) Annual Conference in Washington, DC, we were honored to recognize the winners of the 2015 NHSA-Teachstone Scholarship Awards. These NHSA members embody the spirit of our work at Teachstone, where we recognize the parallel process centered on supporting teachers in their most critical role in the classroom: educating and nurturing the youngest members of the next generation.

- Eileen Orleman, Curriculum Specialist, Orange County Head Start, Orlando, FL
- Lance Reed, Curriculum Supervisor, Starfish Family Services Birth to Five, Detroit, MI
- Sydney Roach, Education Coordinator, Region 16 ESC Head Start Program, Amarillo, TX

Scholarship winners receive:
