Story

This year's speaker, Tabatha Rosproy, is the 2020 National Teacher of the Year and the first Early Childhood (Pre-K) Educator to be awarded the honor since the award's inception in 1952.

Tabatha has experience teaching both typically developing and special education preschoolers. She designed and implemented a unique classroom setting housed in a retirement community and nursing home, where four-year-old students interact daily with community residents. The residents serve as volunteer “grandmas” and “grandpas,” reading with the children, playing games, and attending field trips.

Now a 13-year veteran teacher, Tabatha is the Early Childhood Project Coordinator for the Kansas Parent Information Resource Center, where she provides training around the state to school districts and organizations on best practices in Early Childhood Education and Family Engagement. She is also a Certified Instructor for Conscious Discipline and spends her extra time speaking, training, and collaborating with educators all over the country.

Tabatha joins us to discuss how we can help children learn to self-regulate and calm their fears and anxieties, so they can block out the noise of the world around them and not sweat the small stuff.
