Little Champions, Big Dreams: Buckeye Hills SkillsUSA Team Uses Storytime to Inspire Future Careers

��Ͽ�r — Wed, 24 Jun 2026 13:34:19 +0000

For most preschoolers, storytime is a chance to hear a fun book and complete a craft. For ��Ͽ�r’s Community Service Team, it became an opportunity to inspire future readers, future workers, and future leaders.

Led by Emily Turner, Braeli Myers, and Olivia Whitt, a team of 13 members spent the 2025-26 school year developing and implementing a community service project focused on early literacy and career exploration. Their efforts reached children and families across the region, earned recognition at the state level, and even resulted in a letter from Ohio First Lady Fran DeWine.

The project began with research into Ohio’s literacy needs. Team members learned that early childhood experiences play a critical role in lifelong learning, with a child’s brain being approximately 80 percent developed by age three. They also discovered that Ohio has made early literacy a statewide priority, inspiring them to find a way to support those efforts at the community level.

“Our goal was to jumpstart literacy in Ohio while helping children connect books to real careers and big dreams,” the students explained.

To prepare, the team met with the Southeast Regional Director of , learning effective strategies for engaging preschool-aged children through interactive reading, movement, and discussion. They also built partnerships with local libraries and childcare providers while coordinating support from Buckeye Hills programs including Early Childhood Education, Criminal Justice, Cosmetology, and the Health Academy.

Tammy French, Advisor, said, “Working with Debbie Canter and the gave our Community Service Team an opportunity to see firsthand how important early literacy is to children and families. Students learned about the benefits of developing a love of reading from an early age while also discovering the impact they can have in their own communities.”

Over the course of several weeks, students visited five local libraries and one early learning center, leading storytime sessions that combined reading, discussion, crafts, and hands-on career exploration activities. Community partners included , , , , , and Little Buckeyes Early Learning Center.

The featured book was Everyday Heroes, written by Buckeye Hills alumnus and former member Keagan Hammond. Using the book as a foundation, students introduced children to careers and community helpers while encouraging them to think about their own futures. Preschoolers interacted with career-related props, including stethoscopes and toolboxes, matched tools to jobs, and shared their own ideas about what they wanted to be when they grew up.

Families also received information about , helping connect them with free books and literacy resources that can support reading at home year-round.

The impact was measurable. Through observation data collected during the events, the team found that more than 80 percent of participating children were actively engaged during storytime activities. Students observed strong participation, increased career awareness, and meaningful interactions between children, parents, and caregivers.

Some of the most memorable moments came from the children themselves. One child enthusiastically shared her dream of becoming a firefighter, while others eagerly answered questions about careers featured in the stories. Parents often joined the crafts and activities, turning the events into family learning experiences.

The project also made a lasting impact on the members who led it. Tammy French noted, “This project challenged them to grow as leaders, advocates, and community members, and it reinforced the importance of service that creates lasting change.”

For Olivia Whitt, whose church participates in annual mission trips to Puerto Rico where volunteers read to children in both English and Spanish, the project reinforced the universal importance of literacy.

“Early literacy is important everywhere, not just here,” she said.

Braeli Myers said learning about early childhood development changed her perspective and inspired her to start reading to her younger siblings, ages one and three.

“I didn’t realize how important those early years were before this project,” she said.

For Emily Turner, the experience became a reminder of her own potential.

“Since first grade, I’ve had an IEP,” she shared. “Being involved in showed me what I’m truly capable of accomplishing.”

Beyond benefiting the community, the project increased awareness of early literacy throughout ��Ͽ�r. Team members presented their work to the student leadership committee and the student body, strengthening collaboration across campus and creating a model that future members can continue and expand.

At the State Leadership and Skills Conference, the students presented their project through a formal presentation and question-and-answer session with judges, showcasing the research, planning, partnerships, and results behind their work. They placed 5th at the SkillsUSA State Competition in Columbus, Ohio, receiving all positive remarks from the judges, who noted that the team exceeded the expectations of the project.

The team’s efforts also caught the attention of , a longtime advocate for early childhood literacy and .

In a letter recognizing the project, DeWine praised the students for their work on “Little Champions, Big Dreams: Exploring Careers Through Books” and highlighted the project’s ability to help young children discover future careers through reading.

“I am grateful for the students working on this project for their commitment to supporting Ohio’s littlest learners,” DeWine wrote. “Their efforts will give many children the building blocks they need for a better and brighter future.”

For the team, the letter served as a meaningful reminder that their work was making a difference far beyond the classroom. What began as a community service project evolved into an initiative that supported statewide literacy goals, strengthened community partnerships, and inspired young children to dream about their futures.

When asked what lesson they will take away from the experience, the students pointed to the power of service and perseverance. They learned that sharing information and resources can make a meaningful difference in people’s lives—and that even a simple storytime can help spark a child’s imagination and future aspirations.

Their project theme, “Little Champions, Big Dreams,” captured that vision perfectly. By providing books, encouragement, and positive role models, Buckeye Hills students helped children begin building bright futures—one story at a time.

Building Futures from the Start: Early Childhood Education at ��Ͽ�r

��Ͽ�r — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 18:16:28 +0000

At ��Ͽ�r, preparing students for meaningful careers often begins with something simple—but powerful: making a difference in the lives of others.

For senior Jasmine Fairchild, that impact is already taking shape.

A student in the Early Childhood Education (ECE) program, Jasmine—whose home school is Gallia Academy High School—is currently completing her clinical hours in the Head Start program at Rio Grande Elementary. During a recent federal review, an evaluator observed Jasmine working in the classroom and came away impressed—not only with her understanding of early childhood concepts and professional terminology, but also with her natural ability to connect with young learners.

It was a moment that affirmed what Buckeye Hills educators see every day.

Learning by Doing

The Early Childhood Education program at ��Ͽ�r is designed as a two-year, hands-on experience that blends classroom instruction with real-world application. Students begin visiting classrooms early in the program. At the start of their junior year, they are participating in weekly clinical placements—essentially stepping into the role of student teachers.

Through these experiences, students log more than 480 hours working directly with children in a variety of settings, including preschools, childcare centers, and elementary classrooms. They also have the unique opportunity to complete clinical hours on campus at Little Buckeyes Early Learning Center, which serves children ages 18 months to 5 years.

“This program not only prepares students for careers in education, but also gives them the background knowledge that other students coming straight out of a traditional high school would not have,” said Carrie Williamson, ��Ͽ� ECE instructor. “This program is built not only to enable students to start working in the field right after graduating, but also to be a stepping stone into a college degree in education.”

Students in the program work toward earning their , a nationally recognized certification that opens doors to immediate employment and can also translate into college credit.

A Workforce That Matters

The demand for skilled early childhood professionals continues to grow, and programs like ��Ͽ�r’s Early Childhood Education pathway are helping meet that need locally.“As an administrator in the early childhood field, I am more certain than ever before that this program is creating employable adults ready to step into a workforce that needs them now more than ever,” said Dawn Hall, Director of Head Start/Early Head Start for the Athens-Meigs Educational Service Center and facilitator of Little Buckeyes Early Learning Center.

More Than a Classroom

Inside the ECE program, students learn far more than lesson planning and classroom management. Courses cover topics such as child and adolescent development, health and safety, and curriculum design—many offering opportunities for college credit.

But just as important are the personal qualities students develop along the way.

“People in this field have to be organized and resourceful, but more importantly, they need patience, empathy, flexibility, and consistency,” Williamson said. “Working with children is incredibly rewarding, but it also challenges you. Our students learn to see the bigger picture and understand the impact they’re making—even on the hard days.”

For Jasmine, those lessons have already left a lasting impression.

“One thing that inspires in Early Childhood Education is being able to watch children grow and see who they will become in years to come,” she said. “This program has helped me understand that all children are different, and it has opened doors for me and shown me who I can become.”

Preparing for What’s Next

Whether students choose to enter the workforce immediately after graduation or continue their education, the ECE program equips them with the tools to succeed.

Through partnerships with local schools, childcare centers, and on-campus learning labs like Little Buckeyes, students gain firsthand experience that builds both confidence and competence.

Moments like Jasmine’s—being recognized during a federal review—are a reflection of that preparation.

They are also a reminder of the broader mission behind career and technical education: not just to teach skills, but to shape futures.

At ��Ͽ�r, that future is already taking root—one classroom, one student, and one child at a time.
