Saring Web Resources

                                                                  

I searched the International Children Resource Institute website and found additional information relevant to the question of excellence and equality in early childhood education.  ICRI provides services that are accessible, affordable, and available to the families in the areas where their programs are located.   ICRI Heart Leap School, Berkley Child Care center, and Heart Leap North use a discovery-based emergent curriculum, children learn everything by doing and experiencing the project.  In total the five quality early childhood programs in California are model programs in their communities and provide study and learning exchange opportunities for educators around the world.    

The state of California, State Department of Education administer allowed ICRI to administer subsidies which gives access to services for everyone, in the community that the Spanish/English Nuevo Mundo early childhood development program is located (Richmond, California).        

I have learned that government, businesses, and early child development organization can work together for the good of the children and families.  There is funding out there for early childhood development, we have to find new strategies to bring that funding into the early childhood community.
