Teachers as Learners and Why Acknowledging Sources is so Important
Recently, we hosted a batch of collaboration tours consisting of parents interested in cooperative model and teachers from other centers and schools. These are not simply tours of the school, our approach, or materials. The tours truly are collaborative. We have the opportunity to learn from other teachers and parents.

When the parents gathered during a Spring Break in 2005 to implement Phase I of our playground renovation, they could not foresee all the loveliness that would roll out over the years. How could they? Phase I included the use of a backhoe and a Bobcat! Their primary focus was to complete the job at hand in the few days they had while school was closed for the break.
