ECC set to honor heroes

Everybody has a hero. And the David C. Isenberg Family Early Childhood Center is no different. These ECC heroes share a vision for excellence in early childhood education.

Plans are underway to honor two heroes, David C. Isenberg and Judy Ellen Nagle, on March 29. The evening will include dinner, dancing to live music and an auction. Isenberg is being recognized for his commitment, dedication and philanthropy. Nagle is being honored for 25 years of teaching. The goal of the evening is to raise $18,000 to dedicate Nagle’s preschool classroom in her honor.

The evening is hosted by the parent committee, chaired by Randi Simon and Montana Green. An event committee of current and former ECC parents is assisting: Emma and Jeffrey Sperling, Lauri and Michael Friedman, Amanda and Jeremy Isenberg, Rebecca and Joshua Taub, Cynthia Holzer Sparr and Glenn Sparr, Marisa Garber and Daniel Gamm, Bethany and Richard Sutton, Victoria and Matthew Brier, and Susan and Marc Gertsacov.

Nagle’s former students and parents of former students are welcome to attend the event and encouraged to leave messages on a Facebook page – ECC Heroes Event (facebook.com/groups/833907063335634)– set up for this purpose.
