Meet our victory train® team

The Victory Train® initiative is a grass roots movement started here in Greene County, where the community has come together to embrace and take ownership of our vision.  We are a volunteer driven organization, as individuals throughout the community have stepped up to serve in key positions.

We have close to 200 volunteers working together to ensure school-readiness for our families.  Volunteers are from all areas of Greene County and include participants from our families who are currently receiving our Victory Train education packets.  We believe everyone has a part to play on the Victory Train and that together we can transform our community so that all children can succeed on their pathway to graduation.

Board of directors

The Victory Train® Board of Directors sets the vision and policies for the organization and is responsible for developing a plan to provide the resources needed to implement the strategic plan.  The Board helps to identify funds and resources to provide the educational materials that make up our weekly packets and helps to identify volunteers to oversee the operations of the program in order to ensure families receive the support needed to prepare their children for school-readiness.

Parent Coach

In 2021, Victory Train® hired our first employee to serve as a Parent Coach to our families.  The Parent Coach will work with the parents on a one-on-one basis, helping to mentor and guide the parents in their role as their child’s first and best teacher.  The Parent Coach will evaluate each child and help guide the parents in building a successful pathway to graduation.

EDUCATION TEAM

Our Education Team is comprised of educators with extensive backgrounds in early childhood education and development.  These volunteers assist Victory Train® with developing the Curriculum used in our weekly education packets and designing age-appropriate packets to teach each lesson.  Our Educators help administer our Brigance Testing for each Victory Train child and assist with evaluating the test scores and results.  This information is then used to enhance our Curriculum and to help us customize the weekly packets to fit the individual needs of each child.
