“A massive shoutout to Brenda Dion. Brenda has been the heart and soul of Warrior Preschool and Early Childhood. Her kindness, positivity, and tireless work ethic are to be recognized. She does ALL the things with grace and smile and knows so much about both SPED processes and Warrior Preschool, which is not easy to keep organized. We're going to miss her so much next year as she steps into retirement, but we're incredibly grateful for everything she's done. Thank you Brenda for all the work you have put into our programs!”
