CCPPNS - Parent Involvement in Child's Education
Description
About CCPPNS
The California Council of Parent Participation Nursery Schools (CCPPNS) is a community of parents and educators committed to teaching and inspiring families through parent involvement and mutual support. Parent participation nursery schools are founded on the principle that the best education will result from an active partnership among parents, teachers, and children.
Since the schools are nonprofit cooperatives, the parents are the owners. Parents are expected to regularly participate at all levels ranging from the administration, operation, and maintenance of the facility to teaching in the classroom under the guidance of a professional teacher. The involvement doesn't seem like work once the realization is made that involved parents are their children's biggest teacher. This participation fosters a strong sense of community, a rich and varied educational curriculum, and a safe and stimulating environment for preschoolers.
The director at each school shapes the curriculum so children can begin to develop their social, emotional, physical, and academic skills in the classroom. The high adult-to-child ratio (1 to 5) provides challenging opportunities for the children. The teacher can directly focus on art, science, music, and other projects, often drawing on the talents of parents. Preschoolers are encouraged to pursue their interests, learn from mistakes, and communicate thoughts and feelings through their words.
