Learning is an Adventure!
My name is Bailey Broderick and I am from Rapid City, South Dakota. I moved to Chadron a little over four years ago to attend Chadron State College. Some of my favorite things are cereal, spending time with family and friends, my house and being around children. I have always enjoyed working with kids. I realized this when I was quite young. Children of all ages is simply a passion of mine and where I find myself happiest is when I'm directly helping them. I decided to get my degree in an area that allows me to continue to be a part of children's lives. I recently graduated from CSC with my Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies emphasized in early childhood education. I can't wait to use everything I have learned through experience and my education with the children at Great Foundations Christian School. I feel so lucky to get to be a part of your children's educational experience and look forward to creating the best learning and growing environment I can for them all year round!
