We partner with  Massasoit Community College to offer coursework at a cost to the educator of $50.00. The Department of Early Education and Care (EEC) has prioritized Degree Attainment for Educators in the Commonwealth.  In support of the priority, the EPS grant subsidizes college course work that is intentional and supports
