I plan to move to another state
and open a school. I chose Harlem
children zone because admire their business model. At Harlem Children's Zone, they believe
in doing 'whatever it takes' to ensure that children graduate from college so
they can be prepared for the high-skills job market.
Geoffrey Canada is the President
and CEO of Harlem Children Zone. His
program addresses the needs of children at each stage of their development, as they
work to strengthen the families and community around them. This program starts
from birth to college. It starts with The Baby College, which
teaches best-practice parenting to parents of children from 0-3 years old.
HCZ runs Birth to Pre-Kindergarten programs to get children on track early.
Children then attend one of two HCZ Promise Academy K-12 charter schools or
are supported by HCZ staff in the seven public schools in the Zone. HCZ
also runs innovative middle and high school afterschool programs for local public school students. HCZ's College Success College
Success Office supports
HCZ's students - many of whom are the first in their families to attend college
- so that they can successfully navigate the new challenges and
responsibilities they face.
What I’ve learned the most
id that supporting children in their education in the early years is essential to
them being prepared for life and having the ability to enter the job market
fully prepared. When children are adults after successful completing all levels
of schooling, they are more apt to become part of the work force. People that
are part of the work force contribute to the economy of this country. These
people are less likely to end up entering the welfare or in the correctional facilities
This is why I am so passionate
about teaching early childhood education. Early learning is the solid
foundation the early child all over the world deserves to have. Education is
every child’s right and I am dedicated to educate every child n my reach.
Great resource, and I love that it fuels your passion for Early Childhood Education. I agree with you that Early Childhood education is the foundation to a better and stable economy. These children deserve the best, and it can lead to a steady and productive workforce in the future. It is logical to you and I, but how can we get others to see it to?
