Spring Hill, FL. — The Early Learning Coalition of Pasco and Hernando Counties (ELCPH) is excited to share our 18th Annual Early Learning Conference, happening right here in New Port Richey, Florida! This event is designed for Early Learning Educators, Leaders, and
Professionals who are dedicated to making a difference in early learning within Pasco and Hernando County. We will be diving into the exciting world of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) where local educators will have the opportunity to explore
innovative ways to bring these disciplines into their early learning classrooms. It is going to be an inspiring experience with lots of learning and growth.
With an estimated attendance of over 200 educators, we are gathering on Saturday, February 22, 2025, at the host venue, Marchman Technical College at 7825 Campus Dr, New Port Richey, FL 34653. Our keynote speaker is the dynamic Brenda [Last Name], also known as Professor SKO who is sure to captivate us with her engaging visual STEAM
interactions, creating an enriching experience for all our educators. In addition to this, we’re offering over 25 sessions where educators can choose education tracks focusing on preschool-aged children, infants, and toddlers. This includes special sessions with our guest speaker, Miss Penny Bernath from South Florida PBS, KidVision PreK. Lastly, for the first time, we are offering Spanish sessions available to support our bilingual educators.
We truly could not host this incredible educational event without the generous support of our sponsors: Florida Lottery Bright Futures, Childcare Education Institute, Publix Charities, Suncoast Credit Union and Marchman Technical College.
