The CVSD Early Education Director position is a critical component of our district’s commitment to early education. The Director oversees all aspects of early childhood education, including early childhood special education, Act 166/Universal PreK (and managing the 50 community-based PreK programs that CVSD partners with) and coordinating 0-3 services for young children with special education.
Ms. Gagne graduated from Rivier College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education, Special Education, and Human Development. She earned her Master of Education degree in Intensive Special Education from the University of Vermont. She has almost completed a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies in Educational Leadership from Saint Michael’s College.
Erin joined CVSD last August as an intensive needs special educator and an early education intensive needs coach. Prior to that, she was an early childhood special educator and intensive needs special educator in the Missisquoi Valley School District in Swanton, Vermont.
Upon accepting the position, Ms. Gagne said, ”I’m excited for the opportunity to work with dedicated early childhood educators and with the CVSD leadership team. I look forward to supporting school, family, and community partnerships to promote high-quality, enriching early learning experiences for all children.”
CVSD’s Director of Student Support Services, Meagan Roy, shared, “Erin is uniquely poised to take on this role, as her background in special education incorporates early childhood education and intensive needs education. This will help her support our youngest learners with complex disabilities as well as continue our work in implementing MTSS across the early education system. I could not be more excited to bring her on board in this position!”
We look forward to working with Erin in this role.
