“The moment I stepped foot onto the YCIS Preschool Campus, it felt right. I knew this was the place for me. You could immediately see how much the teachers cared for the students and their families, and how much the entire team worked together to collaborate and support each other. I chose to work at YCIS because I strongly believe in educating the whole child. I really enjoy working in such a diverse environment where I get to co-teach and introduce children to a new language as well as bridge and meld cultures together. I love being able to collaborate with other professionals that are motivated and passionate about what they do. I wake up each morning excited to come to school and be among the amazing team here at YCIS.”

“I was first drawn to YCIS when I learned about its dual language program and approach to educating the whole child. What continues to amaze me about YCIS is the close community of staff, students, and families. This environment makes it easy for teachers to stay passionate and motivated to give the children who enroll in this school the best education possible. I truly appreciate the ability to challenge what I know as an educator, to continue to strive to make a lasting impact for the children and families with my fellow colleagues.”
