The grand opening of the Lindenwold Early Childhood Center (ECC) in the fall of 2025 brought together three Neumann Education graduates: MaryKate (Sinko) Flannery '09, Lauren Retkovis '24, and Rebecca (Sincavage) Nicoletti '09.
All three are special education teachers. Flannery is part of a first grade team-teach classroom, Retkovis is part of a kindergarten team-teach classroom, and Nicoletti will teach kindergarten in the fall after spending the past few years teaching inclusive preschool in the district.
The trio taught in separate schools in the Lindenwold School District before the ECC opened and brought them together.
