Choosing A High-Quality Reputable Preschool

A new study by the Rand Corporation finds that a majority of California's children are in preschools that fall short on key measures that are important for preparing kids for kindergarten. To find a high-quality preschool in your community, focus your search in three areas:
People
Program
Place.

Here are a few of the things you should look for:

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