It is hard to believe that my 22-year tenure at NCRC is winding down. Within that time, I have had the privilege and honor to meet so many children and their families that have given to me so much energy and love. Each and every child has filled my soul and their smiles will always be a catalyst to keep me reaching out to others and to hopefully better each life in some small way. I truly believe children develop to the beat of their own drum and it is through play, exploration, our respect for who they truly are, and in allowing children time that each child will create their own masterful symphony. It is through their smiles of joy, and their displays of self-confidence and pride that we, as adults, know that we are a vital part of their orchestra. I hope I have been an accompaniment to the many symphonies that have been written at NCRC over the past 22 years. Please keep me in your thoughts and drop me an email as each movement of your child's symphony unfolds. Bricemarian@gmail.com
Forever in my heart,
