Finding the right pre-school for your child

What to look for in a pre-school:
(from Pre-school California, www.preschoolcalifornia.org)

  • What kind of training and education do the teachers have?
  • Are the teachers and kids engaged in conversations?
  • Can teachers tell you not only what they are doing, but why?
  • Does the program use a curriculum to guide learning?
  • Does the program welcome and involve families?
  • Does the space have separate learning centers (reading, art, dramatic play,writing etc.) & a well equipped playground?
