You know you’re nearing the final stretch of an interview process (and that it’s looking good for you) when a potential employer asks these three questions:
When would you be available to start? (Or, how much notice do you need to give your current employer?)
Can we get you set up for your physical and drug screen?
Will you please provide us with a list of professional references we may contact?
Question number three can rattle even the strongest of candidates if you’re not prepared to respond swiftly with names, titles, the nature of the relationship, and current contact information for however many people with whom they’d like to speak.
Don’t get caught in scramble mode at this stage of the game. Your prompt response and the quality of your references can take you the distance if you play this right.
Let’s begin.
Who Should I List (or Not List) as a Reference?
Generally speaking, your future employer wants to talk with the following people, in order of importance (depending on your role):
Your current manager or supervisor
Your prior managers or supervisors
Your current peers or clients (if you’re interviewing for a client-facing role)
Your prior peers or clients
Your personal references or friends who will vouch for you
Number five, by the way, is a remote fifth place. Reserve this one for only those times you have few other options, and make sure to ask if it’s OK to include personal references before you do so. Also, if you’re a graduating college student (or recent grad), you can absolutely include professors who may be able to speak to your performance and work ethic.
Never (ever) include relatives, unless you happen to work directly for or with one. Oh, and absolutely don’t ever give a fake name and then commission your buddy to “pretend” to be your employer or peer. Recruiters are not stupid. Treat them so at your own peril.
Keep in mind that the primary reason why potential employers want to check your references is because they want a third party to vouch for your on-the-job performance and character. You can tout your greatness all day long in the interview, but it truly gels for decision makers when others tout it for you.
Should They Be on My Resume?
Nooooooo. Heavens, no. Not only do you not need to list out your references, you shouldn’t. It takes up unnecessary resume space, and there’s a remote chance that a recruiter may be more interested in, say, your manager (who you’ve listed) than he or she is in you. No need to hand over all of this information before you captivate him or her.
Likewise, no need to write out “References available upon request.” This is a given. When the hiring manager want them, he or she will ask for them. 100% of the time.
What If I’m a Covert Job Seeker?
This can be a tricky one. If you’re currently employed—and job searching on the sly—who can you trust in these final, important legs of a job transition? I can’t answer this one definitively because every situation is different, and the stakes can be quite high. Trust your gut.
Chances are, you aren’t going to be able to use your current manager as a reference. Certainly, consider enlisting former managers. But you should also think about asking one to two colleagues with whom you have a close personal bond (and established level of trust). If and when you ask them for this support, spell it out very clearly how important it is for you to keep your search under wraps—and the potential consequences for you if they blab.
Also, if you’re providing your potential employer with a relatively weak list of references, be sure and alert them that you’re aware of that, and explain why.
How Should I Ask?
I always encourage clients to approach potential references with specificity, instead of the old, “Hey, would you be willing to be my reference?” Do that, and you’re going to have to let the chips fall where they may in terms of what this person offers up. And along those lines, do this over the phone if possible. You’ll get a much better idea of how excited (or unexcited) this person is to help you.
Make sure to frame your request in a way that spells out the details of the role you’re pursuing, what you anticipate the caller is likely going to want to talk about, and how he or she can be the most helpful.
Example: “Because they’re going through so much change and restructuring right now, I’m guessing they’re going to want to make sure I have strong leadership skills and the ability to turn around struggling teams and programs. If you’re willing, I’d love for you to share some detail on the program we revitalized in 2014.”
Be specific, and also ask this direct question at the end of the call, “May I count on you to give me a favorable reference should the company contact you?”
Don’t assume your past co-worker or boss is going to sing your praises. You never know—she may be jealous of your opportunity here or feel like you dropped the ball on something last year. If you ask this question, you’ll either get a “Yes, of course you can count on me” or an awkward pause or waffle. Don’t list anyone who responds with the awkward pause or waffle. Lukewarm references can sink you in the home stretch.
Is There Anything I Should Provide My References With?
Ideally, provide them with a copy of the job description or an overview of the role and main responsibilities. If you can, also give them some background on the person you anticipate will be calling them, so that they can feel up-to-date and prepared for the conversation.
Also, if it’s someone you’ve used as a reference before (and you suspect would be fine being listed again), provide him or her with a heads-up. Don’t list people without giving them any indication that you’ve used them as a reference for this next opportunity. That’s rude, and it may annoy them to the point of not giving you a glowing review.
What Do I Do After They Are Contacted?
Honestly, you don’t always know when a reference has been contacted, but often times your people will follow up to let you know the conversation just took place.
What do you do? This one is easy—thank him or her, and offer to return the favor if it’s ever needed. And, when you land that job? Most definitely let each of your references know, and consider a small thank you gift, like a coffee gift card or lunch.
Get it right, take it the distance, and enjoy that amazing new gig in 2016.

The 12 best people to pick as job references
When you apply for a new job, you need a polished resume, a perfected cover letter, and a list of job references who you trust to speak to a potential employer. Some employers may ask for references during the application process while others may wait until your interview, but knowing the best people to pick as job references can make or break your chances of landing your dream job.
How do you know who to ask for a reference?
A good reference can work well to convince a potential employer that you’re worth hiring. Hearing the perspective of a person who has worked closely with you can give them insight that they may not glean from the information on your application that comes directly from you.
The best people to pick as job references should:
Have knowledge of your work ethic.
Respect you.
Be well-spoken.
Agree to be listed as a reference.
You want to pick people who have worked alongside you and think highly enough of you to sing your praises to a hiring manager. (But no, you can’t pick your best friend or your mom — relatives and close personal friends are a hard pass.)
So, where do you begin? Take a look at these 12 ideas to get your job reference list started.
1. Your boss or supervisor
At the top of your list of job references should be a former or soon-to-be-former boss or supervisor — the more recent the better. This is someone who can speak directly to your skills and what it’s like to manage you.
Even if you didn’t have a great relationship with your old boss, there can still be value in their opinion for a new employer. Plus, leaving them off the list may look fishy (unless they don’t know you’re leaving, which you should explain in your interview) so it’s best to at least have a conversation with them and try to work things out if you can.
2. A trusted coworker
Coworkers can make particularly great references — they’re the ones who see you working up close and personal each day. They should be a person who is familiar with your actual work, though, not just a friendly face who chats with you at the water cooler. Pick someone who either worked directly with you, in your department, or whose work was impacted by your own.
3. Your former professor or educator
For recent graduates in particular, a professor or instructor can be a top choice for a reference. This is especially true if they teach a subject in the same field that you now hope to work in. Just make sure to pick an educator who has gotten to know you personally and not a professor for a class of 100 students who you’ve never spoken to directly outside of a few emails.
4. Someone you have volunteered for
Volunteer work looks great on a resume, especially if it’s consistent or somehow connected to your line of work. Their relationship with you is likely similar to that of a boss or professor, so you can definitely ask your volunteer coordinator or organization leader to be a job reference.
5. A former client
Depending on your line of work, you may have a former client or two who would be happy to provide a reference if asked. Clients who expressed appreciation for your work are ideal, especially if you will be expected to complete similar work in the role that you’re applying for.
6. Your former classmate
As a student, did you work closely with other classmates in a small group setting or for a semester project? If so, they might be able to provide a solid reference for you. Just make sure you ask a classmate who you got along with and who was appreciative of your efforts at the time.
7. Someone that you’ve volunteered with
Much like a coworker, someone who you have volunteered alongside consistently over the years can usually speak to your level of commitment on the job, work ethic, and general demeanor. Again, volunteer work can be impressive to a potential employer, so this is another great way to work that angle.
8. A professional connection
That friend you always run into at networking events and chat with on LinkedIn about your mutual love of cold-emailing can actually be a great reference. Especially if they work in a similar profession or are highly respected in their own profession, they’re likely to be able to speak to your own level of professionalism with ease.
9. A connection from your college internship
Think back to your college internship days. Were you particularly close to your internship’s director or adviser? Did you work alongside a respected professional who mentored you? Recent graduates especially should seek references from people they worked with during an internship.
10. A high school teacher or coach
If you were particularly connected to a teacher or coach in high school and have sustained a relationship beyond graduation, they can be a wonderful pick for a job reference. Particularly when applying to a business in your hometown or if your professional references are few and far between, this is a solid option.
11. Your old school counselor
Whether they worked with you through high school or college, school counselors with who you developed a report would likely give you a glowing reference if you list them. After all, their main goal is to help their students (and former students) succeed. They probably get this request often though, so be sure to give them plenty of notice should you require a formal letter of recommendation.
12. Anyone else who knew you when you were just starting out
Were you a lifeguard or babysitter in the summers growing up? Did you file mail for a local real estate agent when you were in college or run a newspaper route in your town? Anyone who hired you for these odd jobs when you were young and has known you for years since can tell the hiring manager about your level of commitment and work ethic.
You made your reference list. So, what’s next?
After you decide who you’d like to list as job references, you have to ask for their permission. How you ask someone to be a reference will depend on your relationship with them, but this is definitely easier to do once you know who you’re asking.
Once you have their permission, make sure that you have your references’ updated contact information including their phone number and email address ready to go. Now, when your recruiter asks, “May I call your references?” you’ll definitely be prepared.
Professional References: Who You Can & Cannot Use
Who can I use for a job reference?
Dos and don’ts with professional references
When you’re applying for a new job, the job application or recruiter may ask you to provide a professional reference sheet or list along with your resume. Or, if you’re being considered for a position after an interview, you may be asked to share references then.
So, what exactly are references and who should you use? How do you ask someone to be a reference and how do you list them for a job? We’re going to break it down for you.
A professional reference is a person who can provide a recommendation or confirm your qualifications for a position. These people should be able to attest to your work ethic, skills and achievements in your past roles. By using people who can give specific examples of your work, credentials and reliability, you are giving your potential new employer great reasons to hire you.
You may need to include a list of professional references when applying for a job, in addition to your resume and/or cover letter. Or, you may be asked to provide references during or after a job interview. Either way, it’s important to be prepared and have a list on hand and ready to go when the time comes.
There are a number of people you can select as a professional reference, and they may vary depending on where you’re at in your career.
Think about the job you’re applying for and the qualifications you need to get hired. Choose references who can attest to those job skills. Good examples of professional references include:
College professors, coaches or other advisors (especially if you’re a recent college graduate or don’t have a lengthy work history)
Former employer (the person who hired and paid you)
Former supervisor (this person may have trained you, overseen your work, provided you with role instruction or direction, dictated your day-to-day tasks, etc.)
Former coworkers.
Clients (this could be something you do on your own, such as babysit, dog walk, house sit, etc. Or, it could be people who you provide your professional services to, if you’re a hairdresser, landscaper, dog groomer, etc.).
Volunteer organization leaders
Just as there are several options for who you should list as a professional reference, there are also examples of people you should never list. Examples of this include:
Family
Friends
Anyone who fired you/any employer you were fired from
Anyone not expecting a call
Your cousin’s friend’s daughter’s boyfriend
A famous person you don’t know
The goal is to choose professionals who can attest to your work ethic and explain to someone why you’re best for the job. Even if you have a coworker who is more of a friend than a coworker, you may want to avoid listing them. Listing the above as references may actually hurt your chances of being hired more than help.
Depending on the position you’re applying for, the application or interviewer may ask for a list of personal or character references. This is just like it says—personal. These people should be able to speak to who you are as an individual, so they should be someone you know relatively well. You want them to be able to share your personality and character with a potential employer.
While it’s a good idea to have a list of personal references just in case, you should only share them if specifically asked. Good examples include:
When reading an application or speaking with an interviewer, make sure you read carefully and you’re clear whether they would like professional or personal references. That way you can provide them with the exact references they’re looking for, and the best ones to help you get the job. In most cases, they’ll request professional references.
Some job applications or interviewers may request you list your current employer and ask if they have permission to contact them. In most cases, this could be awkward for both you and your current employer. You probably don’t want your employer to know you’re looking for a new job until you know you want the job and you’ve been given an offer.
Most of the time, it’s understood that you won’t include your current employer as a reference for confidentiality reasons. However, you could share their name and contact information once a formal offer is made.
If you feel comfortable and trust them, you are welcome to list current coworkers as references. Sometimes they may be the most qualified to answer questions about your responsibilities and skills. However, only do so if you feel confident in providing that person’s information.
The key here is to always make sure you ask someone if you can list them as a job reference, and check in each time you list them. Ensure they are comfortable accepting the role of being a reference.
Even if you asked them a while ago but are getting back into job searching again, give them a heads up you’re searching again and they may be hearing from someone soon.
A good way to ask someone to be a reference is either by calling them or sending an email. Ask if they think they know you and/or your work well enough to speak about it, and if they feel comfortable doing so. Or, you could ask them if they feel comfortable giving a positive reference. By asking ahead of time, you give them the opportunity to turn it down if they don’t believe they can or don’t have the time to speak to someone.
Be sure to thank the person in advance for taking the time to talk to a potential employer, and update them on your job status if you get hired. You may also want to ask if they can remain a reference for you in the future should you ever need one. Again, don’t forget to let them know each time you start up your search and list them so they’re aware they may be contacted.
When you apply for jobs or go to an interview, have a copy of at least three references with you. Even if the interviewer doesn’t ask for it, you should offer it up before you leave and encourage them to call. When you list the references, you should include:
Reference Name, Reference Relationship
Company Name
Company Address
Reference Phone Number
Reference Email
Some people list references directly on their resume. While you can do this, it’s better to have a separate reference sheet. This can help ensure your current employer doesn’t get notified—directly or indirectly—that you’re looking for a new job before you’re ready to share it with them.
You may also have a letter of reference or recommendation from a previous employer. You can provide it, along with your reference list, with a job application or upon request after an interview. It’s always a good idea to ask an employer to write you a letter of reference (if you leave on good terms) so you have it to use in the future.

What if you don’t have references for an application?
If you’re looking for a new job, you know how difficult it can be to get your foot in the door. It’s a harsh truth, but most resumes simply go in the trash without the applicant getting the time of day.
To stand out you need a solid resume, including a professional reference page.
This article will cover what employment references are, who to have as a professional reference, and the types of professional references to help you create an excellent reference page for your job applications.
What is a reference for a job application?
A professional job reference is a person who can testify to your qualifications for a position. A reference can provide insight into your work ethic, skills, and abilities.
Most prospective employers will ask for at least three references when considering you for a position. So, it’s important to choose your references carefully.
Why is a professional reference important?
The hiring manager doesn’t know you, and they only have limited information to work with. One job posting can receive over 250 resumes, and this makes finding the right candidate a competitive process.
(Image Source)
A professional reference could set you apart.
Employers are looking for reassurance that they’re making the right decision. They also want to know if the skills and experience listed on your resume are accurate. A professional reference can confirm your story.
Why do employers ask for professional references?
Your professional reference will give recruiters insight into how you work in a team, how you perform under pressure, and whether you’re reliable. The right reference will give you credibility and act as a review of your work performance.
Who to include as a job reference
When choosing references, selecting people who can speak to your qualifications for the specific job you’re applying for is important. For instance, if you’re applying for a job in customer service, you should choose a reference who can attest to your friendly and prompt service.
The typical job seeker only writes one resume during their search, which is a mistake. If you do that, your references and experience won’t help your potential employers understand why you’re a good fit for that particular position. So edit your resume and highlight relevant references for each position. Of course, you should also select potential references with whom you have a good relationship and who will speak positively about you.
(Image Source)
It’s also recommended to make sure that your references are aware that you’re using them as a reference. This way, they’re ready to answer any questions that a potential employer may have.
Avoid using friends or family members as references and opt for previous colleagues, teachers, or coaches instead.
Types of professional references
Personal Character reference
A personal reference is an individual who can attest to your personal qualities, such as your integrity or work ethic. These individuals can be community leaders, volunteers, or sports coaches.
Work reference
A work reference is a person who can speak to your professional qualifications and experience. They should have experience working with you in a professional capacity. An excellent work reference would be a previous employer, co-worker, or client.
Academic reference
An academic reference is a person who can speak to your academic qualifications. These individuals could be professors, academic advisors, or school administrators. They should be able to attest to your intelligence, work ethic, and ability to succeed in an academic setting.
When creating your professional reference list, be sure to include a mix of different types of references. This will give the hiring manager a well-rounded view of who you are as a person and a professional.
How many references should you have?
Sometimes the job application will indicate how many references you need. If you’re unsure, aim for three quality references.
If you are applying for a management role in a highly competitive field, consider expanding this list to five.
The order that you list these contacts matters. Start with the most influential person, such as a boss or teacher.
How to choose your professional references
The quality of your professional references is important. You should only choose people who will increase your chances of getting a new job.

When compiling your list of professional references, keep the following five tips in mind.
1. Determine the type of role you want
The first question you should consider is, “what type of role are you looking for?”
Your reference doesn’t always have to match the job, but they should be able to match the required skill sets.
For example, you may be searching for a position in retail, and your reference could comment on your teamwork, customer service, integrity, and cash handling skills.
You may have a list of potential references that you can mix and match, depending on the position you are applying for.
2. Consider individuals you may know at the organization
Don’t be afraid to use your connections. If you know people who work at the company, ask them whether they’ll vouch for you.
People are usually happy to help a friend, but they will need to feel confident that they can recommend you. They will be putting their reputation on the line, so ensure you have a good relationship.
3. Identify connections between your network and a company employee
If there is a company you have your eye on, ask your network whether they know anyone who works there. Networking can be beneficial. Getting a job often equates to “who you know.”
You can start by browsing the Jobcase community of people or check LinkedIn for connections who work for the company you’d like to get hired at.
Having a reference that the hiring manager knows and trusts can help boost your chances of landing the gig.
4. Consider the length of your relationship with the individual
Recommending a candidate is a big responsibility. You should consider how long you’ve known the person you want to put forth as a reference and the type of relationship you have.
For example, if you worked with an individual for one week back in 1999, they won’t have much to say. They might not even remember you.
But if you’ve worked closely with a co-worker and supported each other in the workplace, they could be a good choice for a professional reference.
5. Consider what they might say about you
92% of recruiters will do a background check before making a hiring decision, and this process includes calling references.
A professional reference may look impressive on your resume, but what will they say about you? The goal is to have positive feedback, but you shouldn’t assume they’ll give you high praise.
Before you apply for your next job, let your reference know they might receive a phone call. You should ask them how they would feel about recommending you.
The top 3 people to use as a professional reference
One glowing reference from a professional can bear more weight than multiple weak references.

So who should you ask? Here are the top three people to consider.
1. Managers you have recently worked with
Managers have authority and usually understand what employers are looking for. If you have a good relationship with a current or previous manager, consider asking them to be your reference.
Try to find someone who’s been your direct supervisor in the workplace. If they’ve witnessed you in action and can pinpoint specific examples of where you excelled, it will be sure to impress any hiring manager.
2. Work colleagues who understand your previous role
Work colleagues often make good references because they’ve had an ongoing working relationship with you. They’ve seen you on a day-to-day basis and can comment on your personal qualities, responsibilities, teamwork, and any tasks you may have performed.
Before you ask a work colleague, think about whether they’ve recently had a positive working experience with you.
3. Academic professionals who know your capabilities
While academic references are often used for internships and school or training programs, they can also support a traditional job application.
Professors and teachers are reputable references. They may have taught you or worked side-by-side on a research project.
Remember, academic references can be in writing and should be from someone that can verify your work ethic. They should still include contact information in case the potential employer has any follow-up questions.
Who shouldn’t you use as a professional reference?
Even though the reference list comes at the end of a resume, that doesn’t mean it isn’t important. You should take care to choose the right people, as their recommendation could be the difference between you and another candidate.
Look for references you’ve worked with recently and avoid anyone who may have something negative to say.
(Image Source)
A professional reference should be a person you’ve worked with — not a friend, neighbor, or family member.
What if you don’t have references for an application?
Most people will have someone they can ask to be on your reference list, even if they don’t have any work experience. Consider whether there is a coach, community leader, or teacher who may be able to put in a good word for you.
Alternatively, you can network by seeking out other professionals.
For example, you might consider volunteering or enrolling in a short course. These types of activities will enhance your resume and give you opportunities to meet potential references.
Remember to update your job references periodically
It’s important to keep your references updated and to select ones relevant to the job you’re applying for. Don’t forget to contact your references periodically to let them know that you’re still using them as a reference and to update them on your latest career accomplishments.

Do you have a list of references ready to provide to prospective employers? If not, line up references who can speak to your credentials and qualifications for a job, so you’re prepared when you’re asked for them.
It’s always a good idea to have a list of references ready to provide to hiring managers when you’re job searching. It’s also important to contact your references for permission to use them and to advise them that they may be contacted. This way, you won’t have to round up a list of reference givers at the last minute.
Have a list of three or four people who can vouch for your expertise and qualifications ready to share with prospective employers.
When and Why Employers Want References
During the job application process, you will most likely be asked for references who can attest to your qualifications. The company may want to verify your credentials and speak to your reference givers to gauge your ability to do the job well.
Typically, this request occurs either when you submit your job application or later in the application process, when the hiring manager is close to making their decision.
The employer will typically specify how many references to include on your list, as well as what contact information you need to provide for each reference.
You will need to format your list of professional references either to include with your application materials, give to the interviewer, or else to email to the hiring manager later on in the hiring process. The employer will typically advise you on how and when to provide references.
As with all communication with a potential employer, from cover letters to thank-you notes, your list of references should be formatted professionally, easy to read and understand, and free of any typos or errors.
What to Include on a Reference List
When you provide a list of professional references to an employer, you should include:
Your name at the top of the page.
List your references, including their name, job title, company, and contact information, with a space in between each reference.
Include at least three professional references who can attest to your ability to perform the job you are applying for.
If it’s not clear from your resume, you may also wish to include information about your relationship with the reference.
For instance, you could write, “Reference Name was my supervisor while I was an accountant at Smith Enterprises,” or “Reference Name is my current employer.”
Example of a Professional Reference List Format
Here’s how to format a list of professional references for employment or business purposes.
Reference List Example
References for Janet Dolan
John Killeny Human Resources Director Allston Industries 52 Milton Street Allston, MA 12435 john. [email protected] (555) 123-4567 John Killeny is the human resources director for my previous employer.
Janet Smithley Manager McGregor Company 1001 Route 20, Suite 210 Arlington, CA 55112 [email protected] (555) 123-4567 Janet Smithley was my supervisor at McGregor Company.
Samantha Greening Marketing Director Samson Enterprises 108 Fifth Avenue New York, NY 11111 [email protected] (555) 123-4567 Samantha Greening was my colleague at Samson Enterprises.
Before You Submit Your References
Listing your references on the page isn’t your last step in this process. If you haven’t already, ask permission from each of your references. It’s important only to submit the names of people who have agreed to serve as a reference.
Even if all of your references are happy to be on your list, it’s a good idea to provide a heads-up that someone may be reaching out to them to ask about you. This is a great opportunity to share some information about the job you’re applying for, provide some key points from your resume that you’d like them to emphasize, and generally remind them about your skills and accomplishments, especially if it’s been a while since you worked together.
Once you’ve done all that, review the list of references one last time to make sure there are no typos and that all contact information is correct and up to date. Here are some helpful proofreading tips for job seekers.
Tips for Getting and Submitting References
Who to Use as a Reference. Choosing who to ask for a reference is an important step in your application process. You will want to tailor your reference list, depending on the job for which you’re applying.
When possible, utilize references with connections to the company or industry to which you are applying.
It’s also helpful to use references who can attest to your qualifications for the particular job you’re applying to. With this in mind, it’s great if you can list people who have worked with you in a similar context.
How to Email a Reference List. When you’re emailing a reference list to an employer, name the file so that it’s easy to identify and easy for the hiring manager to keep track of. You may want to send it as a PDF file, so it retains the original formatting. Here’s how:
For Word Documents: click “File, Save As, PDF (.pdf)” to save your documents as PDF files.
For Google Docs files: click “File, Download, PDF (.pdf)” document.
Save the files with your name, so they don’t get mixed up with other applicants’ materials, e.g., janeapplicant.pdf.
Give the Reference Giver an Opportunity to Decline. When you ask someone to give you a reference, it’s always a good idea to give them an opportunity to decline. While most people are happy to help colleagues out with references and recommendations, there may be personal circumstances or professional policies preventing them from doing so at a particular time.
Consider When to Use a Character or Personal Reference. Remember that there are also circumstances in which you might want to submit a character or personal reference (as opposed to a professional reference) who might be better able to speak to your abilities. This is especially true when you have limited work experience or are branching into a new field.

Professional References and The 4 Best People to Use
So, you got the interview and you think you did pretty well. Now what? Well, they’ll usually ask you for professional references. What is a professional reference? Who should you use as a reference? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. We’ll show you what a professional reference is and show you the best people to use.
What is a Professional Reference?
A professional reference is someone your employer contacts who can vouch for you. They’re usually asked to verify that they worked with you and the information you gave them in your resume/interview.
Usually the last step before a company makes an offer is checking your professional references. Think of it as online reviews for a product or service.
You found the product, it looks pretty decent and you’re almost ready to buy. What do you do right before you put in your credit card info? You usually check the reviews to ensure you’re receiving a quality product. It’s pretty much the same for an employer looking to hire someone, they check your professional references to ensure you make a good hire.
Almost a third of employers reported that a bad hire will cost the company over $50,000. With that much hanging on the line, employers really depend on references to vouch for you. For that reason, you need to ensure you use the right references.
Who to Use as a Reference?
1. Boss or manager
The best professional reference is a former (or current) boss or manager. A hiring manager trusts your former boss over any other reference as they’re usually able to provide an unbiased review of you and your work ethic.
You should really reach out to your boss and ask if you can use them as a reference. We put together a good template you can use when asking others to be a reference.
One thing you should keep in mind is to ensure that whoever you’re listing is well-spoken, willing to. be a reference, and will speak of you positively. You, of course, wouldn’t list a boss who you didn’t get along with or one who fired you.
2. Colleagues
The next best thing to listing a boss is a former or current colleague. If you have a few different colleagues to list, pick those with a higher position and title. If you had to choose between a junior accountant and a senior tax adviser, you would of course go with the senior.
Also, as mentioned above, you want to pick someone who will speak highly of you and one who’s a great communicator. You don’t want your reference to be shy as they may have trouble articulating all your awesome qualities.
3. Professors
A professor is an awesome reference to have, especially if you’ve recently graduated or don’t have much work experience. However, if you graduated college over 10 years ago, your professors probably won’t be particularly good references.
4. Other well-known professionals
If you know someone who’s well known in the industry, or has a prestigious title, you can list them as a reference even though you haven’t worked with them. Make sure they can speak about you professionally as you don’t want to list someone who’s just going to say, “he’s a great guy” or “she’s wonderful.”
For example, listing a CEO who knows about you and your professional life is a good reference. Of course, this should be the last reference you include, try to include the most relevant references like a boss or colleague first.
5. Volunteer, Internships and Freelance Work
You can include a reference from volunteer and internship positions as well as clientele from freelance work. This is especially helpful for those who don’t have much work experience.
If you include a client from freelance work you performed, ensure that they’re a professional company and relevant. For example, a web developer who lists a founder of a startup he did some programming work for is a good example.
So, to recap on the best people to use as a reference:
People You Shouldn’t Use as a Reference
1. Friends and Family Members
Friends and family members don’t make good references for a job application. Unless the employer asks for a personal reference, you should never include someone from this group. Just think about it: the hiring manager wants some unbiased feedback about you and your professional life and a friend or family member is the worst person to get that from.
Don’t think an employer will be fooled by this, either. It becomes really obvious after a short conversation if your reference has actually worked with you in a professional setting or not.
You could include a colleague who you were friendly with, but just including a friend or family member who’s never worked with you will make you look unprofessional.
2. Fake References
Don’t tell your cousin Vinny to act like he’s the CEO of some bogus company. Hiring managers speak to tons of references and can usually tell a fake reference from a real one. Save yourself the embarrassment and possibility of ruining your reputation.
3. People Who May Speak Negatively
You (of course) shouldn’t list someone who may say something negative about you. You should already know if your reference will speak about you positively but if you just want to make sure, you can reach out to them and ask.
4. Irrelevant References
Here is where many job seekers go wrong: listing someone completely irrelevant will do you more harm than good. What do we mean by irrelevant?
Listing someone for who you worked as a babysitter 10 years ago when you’re applying for a financial analyst position is irrelevant. If you don’t have anyone else, we wrote a great post you may want to check out on other alternatives to when you don’t have any references.
Summary
So, to recap, here are the types of references you shouldn’t include:
Having professional references who are ready to put in a good word for you is super important. Remember not to list your references on a resume, but to have a reference page template ready if the employer asks.
Good luck with your job search!

Exactly What Employers Ask Your References
Never Include “References Available Upon Request” On Your Resume (Here’s Why)
Links. Why and how they work – articles about Internet marketing and the quality of incoming links, you will hear different answers, but all opinions will range from “substantially dependent” to “extremely highly dependent”.
Yes, more than half of successful site promotion depends on how willingly the owners and webmasters of other resources link to your site.
The logic of the search engines is clear: you can consider your website as relevant and useful as you like, but if others do not consider your site as such, they will not link to you. So, you should not put this site in the first positions in the search results. And vice versa – a lot of incoming links means that other webmasters consider your site worthy of mention, and perhaps a search engine user will also find it useful. Each link from another site to yours is a vote cast in your favor in the eyes of the search engine.
Based on the number and quality of links, Google also calculates such a notorious site evaluation criterion as PageRank. For every web page that Google finds on the web, it calculates a PageRank, or “importance score for that page.” This rating comes down to a scale of 1 to 10, and many experts believe that it significantly affects the distribution of places in the coveted first pages of Google search results.
Note: Since we will still encounter PageRank when describing the work on links, just in case, we recall that you can find out the PageRank of any page by installing the Google Toolbar, and more information about how PageRank is calculated and works can be obtained at the “technology” page and from the authors’ Page Rank article.
At first glance, the above opinions may seem depressing. After all, if the pages of our site are completely at our disposal, and we can change anything on them (i.e., achieve the optimal weight of keywords in the TITLE, URL, HTML headings and text), then work on the quantity and quality of external links in most cases – “dark forest”. After all, even having sent letters with a link exchange offer to a thousand sites, we cannot be sure that all of them will agree to link to us, and even more so – unilaterally. Even to predict the success of such a “campaign” in most cases is difficult.
However, when we understand the problem a bit, the link campaign will no longer seem so mystical and intimidating. It turns out that getting links from many useful sites is not so difficult, that a trained eye, a proven methodology and a system of criteria will help you immediately identify link partners with the greatest potential, and that you can always watch the leaders from the “top ten” to find out how best to build and run your own link exchange and acquisition campaign.
What are links and how do they work
First, let’s look at the types of links. Based on the way links are acquired, they can be divided into 4 types.
1. One-way links . As the name implies, a one-way link does not imply that you will place a reciprocal link from your resource to the partner’s site. Such links often appear spontaneously – the webmaster of another site visits your resource and decides to link to it, often without even notifying you about it. However, no one forbids taking the initiative in acquiring a one-way incoming link by writing to the webmaster of the desired site with a corresponding request. One-way links carry the most weight in the eyes of search engines because they are the hardest to get.
2. Bidirectional links . You offer a potential partner to place a link to his site (or say that you have ALREADY placed), and in return ask for a link from his site. Such links are already less valued by search engines when calculating the weight of your site than one-way links, since the exchange of links can indicate not only that you and your partner value each other’s sites as informative resources, but also that you simply agreed to exchange them in to artificially inflate the ranks of your pages. However, if all of your incoming links (or the vast majority of them) are one-way links, this too can trigger search engine spam protection algorithms, because you are most likely just in the business of buying one-way links. Two-way links are useful for diluting the picture a bit.
3. Paid links . Many sites do not trade links directly, however, by contacting them, it is quite possible to agree on the purchase of a link (if your resources, of course, are similar in subject matter and are not in direct competition at the same time). In addition, there are numerous so-called “link brokers” on the web who, for a fee, can take on the burden of finding potential link partners for you and buying links on your behalf. There are two pitfalls to keep in mind in this process: First, search engines are very negative about buying links, so sites that sell links “overtly” may already be on their “blacklists” and partnering with them can turn into trouble for you. . Secondly, link brokers often do nothing more than simply register your site in directories and indexes that you could easily get into on your own – for example, using programs like Web CEO Submission. For the link obtained in this way, they will take money from you. So before you use the services of a link broker, ask where exactly you will receive incoming links from.
4. Links from directories and content sites . Typically, directories like JoeAnt.com and dmoz.org are manually edited, and if you ask to add your site to a directory, the decision will be made by the person – editor responsible for the content of the directory or the corresponding category, and this decision will take a long time time. Some of these directories are free, others will make you pay to have your site indexed. In any case, directory pages have a high PageRank and are frequently visited by search engines. Therefore, provided that you register in a relevant category, a link from there will have a beneficial effect on your positions in search engines. Content resources (for example, WebProGuide.com) place a link to your site after you publish some content there, most often an article or review. It is not necessary that your article will get a high PageRank or good traffic – however, such resources are usually indexed regularly by search engines, so this is a good way to get a quality one-way link.

How to identify a link map of successful sites
and use it in preparing an action plan
Who do you think will be best able to tell you the most correct link exchange strategy and good potential link partners? Oddly enough, these are your competitors from the top ten! And they will do it without knowing it. The logic is simple – if their strategy helped them to reach high positions, then, more than likely, a similar strategy will help you too. The problem here is – how to collect information about all competitors’ link partners together, and find out which of them are most effective in helping leading sites.
There are two ways to go.
Go to one of the search engines that provides the service of reporting on incoming links to the site (for example, google.com or yandex.ru), and use the extended (“advanced”) search. You will need to make several clicks before you know how many incoming links to your site are in the database of a given search engine.
And now, for a moment, imagine that you have to do this regularly to always be aware of which sites already link to you, which ones have removed links, which new links have appeared. subsequently conduct a comparative analysis
The second way is to automate the whole process using a program specially created for this purpose – for example, the Web CEO Link Popularity tool, which we will use as a demo later.
First, you can use the “My Site” report by adding your competitor’s URL as the site to investigate. This way you get information about the total number of links that you need to collect in order to achieve such positions. We advise you to focus on information from Yahoo or MSN, since Google is notorious for its tendency to show far from all incoming links that it stores in its database and uses for calculations.
Next, you go to the “Competition” report, where you can get the same numbers, only for several sites at the same time: it becomes possible to compare yourself with several competitors and estimate the amount of work required.
With the “Who links to me” report (again using a competitor’s URL as the site under study) you get the treasured information about who links to the leaders. This is almost a ready-made list for your own mailing list. Why “Almost”? Next, we will explain how to filter this list in order to select only the most profitable partners.
The Link Text Analysis report helps you determine which keywords other sites are using when linking to competitors. The words used in the links themselves play a big role in determining the relevance of pages by search engines.
Finally, you use the Linking Sites Overview report to find out which sites are linking to more than one of your competitors at the same time. First, since a link from this site has helped several competitors, not just one, the chances are higher that this site will also be useful for your positions. Secondly, you get additional confidence that this site is not a satellite or partner of one of your competitors, which helps to save time on correspondence with unpromising partners.
So, you’ve got a real and fairly complete picture of the links to your site, studied the map of your competitors’ incoming links, thereby “peeping” their strategy for increasing the citation index. .. But a one-time check is not enough – webmaster (or the site owner) should always be aware of how many resources are linking to their site, what those resources are, which incoming links have disappeared, and why.
For such comparative analysis, it is enough to rescan the report you are interested in, previously obtained using the Link Popularity tool, and you will see fresh data in comparison with the previous report, the best report or the first scan. At the same time, data can be displayed, saved, printed both in the form of tables and in the form of graphs.
Based on the results of regular scans, the Link Popularity tool database generates a history of all scans for each analyzed page/site. In addition, to facilitate your work and automate the reanalysis process, you can use the convenient and simple solution from the Web CEO program. A task scheduler called Scheduler will give you the ability to program the Web CEO’s job so that certain tasks run automatically at the desired interval (say, every Monday at 10:00 am). You can specify for which project (website) the task should be performed and select one of the previously created profiles that contain the specific settings necessary to complete the task (the list of search engines on which backlinks are checked, the list of analyzed websites, etc.).

HTML Links
Links are the basis of hypertext documents, as they allow you to move from one site to another with a simple mouse click. Thanks to links, a web page is structured and links with other sections of this document, which provides users quick and convenient obtaining information. HTML uses element 9 to create a link.0097 , the so-called anchor (from the English anchor). To turn the selected text into a link, place it between the opening and closing tags – … and using the attribute href (short for hypertext reference (hypertext link)) specify the URL (Universal Resource Locator) , universal resource locator), in other words, the address of the page to be navigated to. The URL must be enclosed in quotation marks. If you want nothing to happen when you click on the link, which is necessary during training, then as the value of the attribute href can be specified
sharp sign – (#) .
The following example creates a link to the “wm-school” website:
In most browsers, link text is displayed in blue with an underline. When you hover your mouse over a hyperlink, the pointer will turn into a hand. Visited links tend to turn purple.
Absolute and relative links
The browser needs to be told which document to follow the link to. Attribute href (hypertext link) contains the page address (URL) and passing it to the browser tells which document to follow the link to. In most cases, links lead to other HTML documents, but links can also lead to other objects, such as images, archives, video files, and so on. The link address can be either absolute or relative.
Absolute URL
An absolute URL contains the protocol designator (http:// or https://), the site name (for example, wm-school.ru), the file path, and the file name (for example, file.html). The protocol and site name can be prefixed with www:
As a rule, links with and without the www prefix lead to the same page. But there may also be situations when a link without the www prefix opens, but the browser does not find the same page with www at all. The reverse situation also occurs. The reason may be intentional or incorrect configuration of the web server.
The following example creates an absolute link to a third-party web resource:
Tip : Looking at Figure 1, you can easily understand that moving from the “parent” to the “daughter” you need to set points, respectively, moving to the “grandchild”, these points need to be set twice, etc.
Link to an email address
A mailto link is a special kind of link that helps users send a message for you. If the link uses the protocol mailto , it can be associated with an email address. Creating a link to an email address is done in much the same way as linking to a web page. Attribute value href must begin with the word mailto : followed by the email address to which the visitor should send their email.
The following example creates a link to an email address:
In order for the mail program to start, the appropriate settings must be set in the browser. It follows that the mail link will not work as it should for all users. But, if you enter the email address itself as the link text, then even those visitors who do not have the mailto function on their computer can use it.
Rules for writing URLs
When creating links, it is important to adhere to the following rules to avoid common mistakes:
When creating links, do not use a backslash (\), such a mistake makes your links broken. Web URLs use only forward slashes (/). On the Windows operating system, the backslash is used when specifying the path to files on the computer (for example, D:\Images\elefant.png).
Don’t start a link URL with your computer’s drive name (C:, D:, etc.). Links between pages of a document will work while it’s on a local server, but when you host your site on a remote web server, those links will stop working.
Absolute URL, must begin with the protocol designation http:// or https:// .
Do not use file paths as URLs. Using the file protocol, you can create a link to a file located on your computer (for example, file:///D:/Themes/lessons.html). However, such a link will not work on the web or on other computers.
Do not use spaces or special characters in file and folder names, even if they are valid characters. For example, when requesting a document with the file name “Web Master.html”, the browser will convert a space into a special character code (%) i.e. Web%20Master.html. Use only numbers, letters, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) in file names.
Any link is an inline element, so you can’t place block elements inside elements, but you can put a link in a block container element.
Opening links in a new window
To create a link that opens a page in a new browser window, you can use the target attribute of the opening tag of the element. The value of this attribute must be set to _blank . Most often, links of this type are placed if they transfer the visitor to a third-party site. In this case, site builders hope that the visitor will return to their site after viewing the opened page, because in this case your site remains open in the visitor’s original window and does not let him forget about you. Some users love the display in a separate window, while others find the new windows more annoying than comfortable. Therefore, use this technique sparingly, only to some links and, at the same time, it will not be superfluous to warn the visitor in advance that the page will open in a new window.
The following example shows how to create a link that opens a page in a new browser window:
If you set the value of the target attribute to "_blank", then the link will open in a new window or tab.
If you set the value _blank for all links on the web page, then each of these links will be opened by the visitor in a new window, as a result, the user may have a great many open windows. To avoid this situation, you can give the target window an individual name that can be specified in links instead of the value _blank . The following link will open in a new window named _window :
If you set the target attribute value of all links to "_window", then the links will open in a new window named window.
Set each link on your web page to _window instead of _blank and all documents you link to will open in the same second window, and your site will remain open in the original window .
The target attribute can have the following values:
Value
Description
_blank
Open the page in a new window or tab.
_self
Open the page in the same window (this is the default).
_parent
Used when working with frames and allows you to open the page in the parent frame; if there are no frames on the current page, then this value works like _self.
_top
Used when working with frames and allows you to open the page in a full browser window, replacing all the frames that were on the page; if there are no frames on the current page, then this value works like _self.
framename
Open the page in a new window with the name framename .
Link tooltip
Another useful link helper attribute is title , which allows you to create a tooltip for your link. Such a hint gives the user additional information about what awaits him under the link. The tooltip is displayed when the mouse cursor lingers over the link, after which the tooltip disappears after a while.
Sample HTML:
Try It Yourself
The tooltip is displayed when the mouse cursor lingers over a link.
Creating a link to a specific position on a page scrolling, or to return to the top of the page with a single click. You can create links to different sections of the current web page, or to a specific location on another web page. The place on a web page where you send your visitor is called a snippet. Creating a link to a specific area of the page is a two-step process. Before creating a link to a specific page fragment, you need to mark this section of the page (create a bookmark) using the attribute
id , which assigns a unique name to any HTML element on the page.
Step 1: Create a bookmark on the page
A bookmark on a particular fragment of the page is set using the attribute id . In the professional language of web developers, it is called the fragment identifier. The value of attribute id must start with a Latin letter or underscore (starting with a number or any other character is not allowed). Also, on the same web page, multiple bookmarked elements cannot have the same attribute value of id . Let’s say you want to send the reader to a Level 2 heading on our web page. Give the header a unique name (in this case, the name is absolut ).
Our bookmark will look like this:
Absolute URL
You’ve essentially created a bookmark fixed to the heading “Absolute URL”.
Step 2: Create a link to a bookmark
To create a link to an element with an attribute value of id would require a element whose href attribute value must begin with the (#) hash symbol followed by the id attribute value of the marked element. Next, create a link that takes the reader to a bookmark named absolut on the current page:
, located in another part of the web page, whose attribute has id set to absolut . The hash mark (#) in front of the name is needed to indicate that this is a fragment and not a filename.
Now, if you click on the link: Go to “Absolute URL”, the browser will take you to the section starting with the heading “Absolute URL”.
Creating a link to a fragment of another document
To create a link to a specific part of another page located in another document (on your site or on a third-party site), you need to add the attribute value 9 to the end of the URL of the page0097 id of the desired element, separating them with the symbol (#) . For example, a link to the heading “All about elephants” on a page from another document in the same directory would look like this:
You can’t set identifiers on other site pages, they can be created by the author himself . To find out if there are bookmarks on someone else’s page and where they are, you can, of course, look at the source code and find the corresponding markup. In the case when the designated fragments in the external document are deleted, the page under the link will still load, but, as in the case of regular links, the browser will display the page from the very beginning.
Example of creating a bookmark link from another web page:
In this example, the first link leads to the html_code_elements.html file located on the site in the same directory, when you open this file, you go to a bookmark with the name kbd .
The second link is to a nature.html file located on another site (worldanimals.com), opening that file takes you to a bookmark called hippo .
Link images
Graphic images can be used not only as illustrations, but also as links. In other words, a new page will open when you click on the picture. To ensure that the image works as a link to other web resources, it is enough to place the image inside the element like this:
HTML example:
Try it yourself
When you hover over an image in a link, the pointer turns into a hand.

Lesson 31. Cross-reference in a document – Effective work in MS Office
Often in the text of a document it is necessary to note where the object associated with a particular text is located. For example, “See Figure 10 for a water tap connection diagram.” That is, we need to make a link to the figure. If there are 5 drawings in the document, then you can manually calculate them. And if there are 25 drawings? It is even worse if we collect one large document from several rather large documents. This is where Cross Reference comes in handy.
Understand and remember!
Cross reference – is a reference to an element that is in another part of the document, for example, “See Figure 1. ” or “See clause 3.1”.
You can cross-link the following items:
Paragraph
Heading
Bearing (get acquainted with the concept of footnote later)
terminal footnote (get acquainted with the concept of end footnote later)
Names of objects
at the end of the lesson you can set a cross link to the name of table
link to Figure Title
Update Cross-Reference Field
If you have done the document correctly following the results of Lesson 30, then open this document. But you can use this link: Download document here . Open a document. Since there will be no work with styles in this lesson, I closed the Styles task pane.
1. Cross-reference to Table Name
Did you notice that the text of the document contains the expressions “ (see) ”? I’ve prepared a space for a cross reference.
Step 1. Place the cursor in the place of the intended cross-reference:
Step 2. Open the “Cross-references” dialog box (References ribbon → Names group of commands → Add cross-reference button):
Just in case, I’ll show what this button looks like in full screen mode:
A dialog box appears:
Which fragment will be cross-referenced to? From the drop-down menu, we determine the type of cross-reference. You can cross-reference a paragraph, title, bookmark, footnote, figure, table, etc.
What will the link look like? For example, “page number”. This means that the link will look like the number of the page on which the fragment is located. Or “paragraph text”. In this case cross-reference will completely repeat the text of the selected fragment.
In Lesson 30, I told you what the Field is. Cross reference is also a Field. For example, the text “See rice. 15″ is a cross-reference to the title of Figure 15, i.e. clicking LM on the cross-reference takes us directly to the title of the figure. If the title of figure 15 changes the number for some reason, then the cross-reference to this figure also changes the number. Moreover, it does not matter in what place of the document this figure is located.
Understand and remember!
Cross-references are used to navigate within a document.
Step 3. Set the following values in the Cross Reference dialog box:
Link type – table The constant part and what is the number, see Lesson 29
Insert as a hyperlink – leave
For what name – choose Table 1. Types of regulations (the program automatically compiles a list of all table names based on the table names in the document, if, of course, we inserted the name using the Insert Name dialog box, see Lesson 29 )
Step 4. After setting the values we need, press the button “ Insert “:
The Cancel button has turned into a button Close .
Step 5. Press the button Close
So, in the selected place, a constant part and the number of the selected table name appeared:
Walk through the document and place cross-references to the table names in the right places. The algorithm of actions is as follows:
Place the cursor in the right place (follow the prompt “ (see) ”)
0056
Select the type of link – Table
Insert the link to – “Permanent part and number”
Select the name of the table to which cross links
Press button
Click button
9000
2. Cross-reference to Figure title
Step 1. Put the cursor in the place of the intended cross-reference:
Step 2. Call the “Cross-References” dialog box (References Ribbon → Names group of commands → Add Cross-Reference button:
The “Cross References” dialog box appears.
Step 3. We install the following values in the Cross -Link dialog box:
Step 4. After setting the values we need, click the button “ insert ”
Step 5. Close
And now, in the chosen place, a constant part and the number of the chosen name of the picture appeared:
Go through the document and place cross-references to the Names of the pictures in the right places. The algorithm of actions is as follows:
Place the cursor in the desired location (follow the tooltip “ (see) ”)
Open the “Cross-references” dialog box (Links ribbon → Names command group → Add cross-reference button
Select the type of link – “picture”
Insert a reference to – “Constant part and number”
Select the name of the figure to which the cross-reference is organized
Press the button Insert
Press the button Close
For example:
Understand and remember!
Cross-reference is made to the name of the object, not to the object itself
I tried to repeat throughout the text: Name of the table, Name of the figure. If you delete the picture and leave the name of the object, the link will work as if nothing had happened.
Now it’s time to see how the cross-reference will work.
3. Updating the “Cross-reference” field
Let’s set up a difficult problem right away. As we worked through the document, we found out that chapter 5 should actually be chapter 2. Think back to Lesson 28 where we learned about heading navigation. Go to the beginning of the document (simultaneously press the keys on the keyboard Ctrl + Home )
Step 1. Open the Navigation workspace. Ribbon View → command group Display → checkbox Navigation area:
We get this picture:
It’s very inconvenient to move chapters because the Navigation area shows second level Headings. As a result, the list of all headings turned out to be long. But in lesson 28, we learned how to deal with this problem
Step 2. In any place of the Navigation task pane, click PM and select the Collapse All command from the context menu:
We get this picture:
It became more convenient to work right away.
Step 3. Move in the Navigation area Chapter 5 to the second place in the list (press LM on the title of Chapter 5 and, without releasing the left mouse button, drag Chapter 5 to the second place after chapter 1): jumped straight to chapter 5?
Admiring the result:
But along with chapter 5, we dragged the drawing, which retained its number.
Step 4. Select the entire document by simultaneously pressing the keys on the keyboard Ctrl + A and click the functional button F 9 , as a result of which the already familiar window appears:
Celebrate the radio station “Update the whole”
Click OK
Do not be afraid if the window is “The window“ “ Illustration List Update” pops up for the second time. After all, we have two lists of illustrations: a list of figures and a list of tables.
Admiring the result:
And the title of the figure has changed its numbering, and the cross-reference has “worked out” this change. You can go through the entire document and make sure that the numbering of figures and tables has been updated, and the lists of figures and tables have also been updated.
Now you can:
Set a cross reference to the Table Title
Set a cross reference to the Figure Title
Update the “Cross Reference” field
you are not afraid now! Function button F 9 will never let you down!
How to insert a link to a person or group in a Contact and is it possible to make a word a hyperlink in the text of a VK message
Updated September 24, 2021 Views: 76 571 Author: Dmitry Petrov
Hello, dear readers of the KtoNaNovenkogo.ru blog. Quite often, when communicating on the social network Vkontakte, it becomes necessary to make a link to person (his personal VK page) or to a group, public (read what it is) or an event page.
And it’s not easy to paste the URL copied from the address bar of the browser (when the desired page is open in it, for example: https://vk.com/ktonanovenkogoru ), and make it so that the link is the word (phrase), by clicking on which you could get to the profile of the right person or to the right community (for example, to the public: KtoNaNovenkogo.ru – SEO, earnings, Internet or per person: Dmitry Ivanetsku).
That is, we need to make an analogue of a hyperlink, but only in the text that we create in VK. However, I’ll make a reservation right away – you can insert any link into a Contact (for a person, for a community, or for an external site), but making it a word (formalized as a full-fledged hyperlink) will not always work. In addition, an analogue of BB codes is used for insertion, which you will still need to learn how to use. Actually, in this short post just about it and will be discussed.
How to make a link to a person on VKontakte?
As I already mentioned, in Contact for this purpose , the BB code is used (and not Html markup) or notation options starting with an asterisk or a dog (read why the @ symbol is called a dog). Anyway, the syntax is very similar to BB codes. This method of creating hyperlinks will work in most places where you can enter text in VK (for example, in posts, in comments, in descriptions of communities and videos).
How to insert a link to a person in VK using BB codes
obtained by clicking on the button located to the left of Vexpace and holding Shift on the keyboard). This disgrace looks something like this (by the way, you can copy this construction from here to paste it when typing Vkontakte):
[|]
In this construction, after the vertical bar, you will have to enter a word (or phrase) that will become a hyperlink when the message is published in VK. If you want to make a link to a person, then it would be appropriate to insert his first and last name (or nickname) after the vertical bar. In other words, after the vertical bar, we enter the so-called link text (anchor).
But before the vertical bar, but after the opening square bracket, we will have to enter the equivalent of the URL address where the link we created should lead to. Since in this way it will be possible to make only internal hyperlinks (leading to pages inside the Vkontakte website), then you do not need to enter the full URL – it will be enough to enter either the ID of the personal page of the person you need, or its short address (if he set it in the settings of “My pages”).
Thus, to insert a link to a person in VK, it will be possible to use one of the following constructions :
[id161397394|Dima Ivanetsku]
[ktonanovenkogo|Dima Ivanetsku]
It does not matter which record to use
. As a result of we will get a link leading to the Contact page of the person we need with the words you need. The text of the hyperlink will be the full name, nickname or some other words you entered.
Instead of or together with the text , emoticons can also be used in such a hyperlink (smiley codes for the Contact can be taken on the page above).
You may have a question: where to get the ID of the desired VK page or its short address. The question is fair. However, the answer is very simple. Open the page of the person you want to link to, and in the address bar you will see one of two things: either an ID or a short address (immediately after https://vk.com/ “”). In the case of my page, this will be a short address:
But it can also be like this:
If this is your own page, then you can select the “My settings” item from the left menu and see the information you need in the “ The address of your page “:
In general, nothing complicated.
How to quickly make a hyperlink to a Vkontakte page?
If you are reluctant to bother with BB codes, and the text of the hyperlink (the words from which the link will lead) in the form of the name and surname of the right person suits you, then I can offer you way is a bit simpler than (faster). In this case, you will not need to use square brackets.
Just put first an asterisk * or a dog @ , and then without a space you can specify either the short address of the page of the person you need, or its ID, or you can generally start typing his last name and first name, and select the desired option from the list of suitable ones that appears of people.
Actually, as soon as you enter the * or @ symbol from the keyboard, the contact will tell you everything:
Let’s see this with an example. Let’s say I start typing the short address of my personal page:
I am offered a choice of creating a link either to a person (Dmitry Ivanetska) or to a public page. It remains only to choose the desired option. After selecting, the required structure will be automatically inserted into the text input field:
After clicking on the “Submit” button, this structure will automatically be converted into a hyperlink with the username or community name as the anchor text of the link. As a result, we get the same result as with the use of BB codes – a link from the text of the message left in the Contact, affixed with the words of the name and surname of the person we wished to refer to (see the screenshot in the previous section).
You can also do this:
The result will be the same.
How to insert a link in the text to the community with the right words
Well, everything here is also very simple and similar to what has already been described above. The only thing is that if a group, public or event page does not have a short address, you will need to insert not an ID with the page number, but club with the group number, public with the public number or event with the page number with the event. It will be possible to take them all from the same address bar (although the numbers are still quite often replaced with a short address.
Such entries can look like:
[public38339814|Blog such and such]
Be careful with placing such links to your community from other communities, walls and comments. At the same time, use hyperlinks as words only those that really describe the community, otherwise it may be blocked or even removed from Vkontakte (for spam).
In the same way, to create a link to a community (group, public), you can first put an asterisk * or a dog @ , and then enter either a short address or a number of a public page, group or event page without a space. The contact will understand you perfectly and offer you to choose the right one:
As you can see, everything is quite simple here too.
Is it possible to make any word a hyperlink in a Contact?
Unfortunately, you can refer from the text posted on the social network Vkontakte to your (or someone else’s) site only by directly placing the URL in the text. It will not work to make any words a hyperlink leading to some external site . That is, it will not work to use a construction of the form:
[https://ktonanovenkogo.ru|Website promotion]
It won’t work. But you can easily insert the URL https://ktonanovenkogo.ru into the text and it will be converted into a link, but this URL will be used as its text.
As you can see, Contact recognized the link even on the fly and offers to add, in addition to the text you wrote, the announcement of the page that he found by clicking on it. Great opportunity.
For example, I create announcements of my new articles in VK this way – I just go to my page and to the public, and then insert the URL of the new article into the line for adding a new message. The contact automatically creates an announcement and all I have to do is publish it.
By the way, if the links you insert into the text are very long , then Vkontakte may unsuccessfully crop them. To avoid this, I advise you to use the branded shortener vk.cc (read more in the article about vk.cc and other link shortening services).
Thus, it turns out that any word in the text entered in the Contact can be made a hyperlink, but only if it leads to some page within this social network. With external links, this trick no longer works. That’s it…
Good luck to you! See you soon on the pages of the KtoNaNovenkogo.ru blog
How to use mailto: and tel: links – HTML Academy Blog
Links tel: are needed to make the phone number clickable on the site, and through mailto: you can send a whole letter , in which the address, the subject, and even some text will be immediately filled. Sometimes this is convenient – the user does not need to dial a phone number manually, and a letter to the support service can be started immediately with a specific subject.
These link formats are supported by all browsers, so you can use them in your projects as needed without worrying that they won’t work somewhere.
mailto:
The link is formed from several parts. First, the mailto: prefix is put in the address, after which the mail address is indicated. This is the easiest option.
The mail program will open, in which all the required fields will already be filled. For example, the link above will be processed by the Mail program in OS X:
If the mail program is not installed by default, a program selection window will appear.
Please note that addresses with non-standard characters, such as quotation marks or additional @ signs, must be written in a special way. Read more about this and other complex cases in >RFC 6068 9=”mailto:”] {
font-size: 16px;
line-height: 32px;
color: #000000;
}
tel:
A link to a phone number is marked with a special prefix before the phone number – tel: .
It is considered good manners to include the country code in href . At the same time, the number can be indicated in the link text in any convenient format. For example, we add a city number on the website of a company from St. Petersburg:
In this case, residents of all cities will be able to call the company, and the short number will be understandable and local. The case will go into the “bad” category if it is not clear from the site which city the company is from.
Number not visible in link text, unpredictable behavior.
What happens if you click on a link from tel
A dialer application will open on your smartphone, in which the number indicated in the link will be dialed. If you open such a link on a computer that has a calling program, the same thing will happen.

Lastly, I love the schools’ environments, as they all have such a positive and supporting environment and help each student get through every day.

Senior: Manhasset is undoubtedly a top school district. The academic, athletics, and arts opportunities are extensive and impressive. Teachers are very knowledgeable about their subject matter and often do their best to support students however they can. Almost every student is above average and has extraordinary accomplishments.
However, parents expect for their kids to be the best and there is a toxic competitive culture. In high school, many students are stressed out and resort to cheating. They often still succeed, but they feel the need to sacrifice their integrity to accomplish the goals they feel pressured to complete by the community. Nevertheless, I still graduated from this school feeling prepared to attend my dream college and well educated on the past, present, and future. Instead of suffering the shortcomings of a weak district, the problems manhasset students face are the consequences of being so high performing…. Read 16 reviews

Sophomore: As a current Sophomore in the Chappaqua Central District I can strongly say that the district is an overall fantastic district that puts a lot of emphasis on challenging each and every student in a way that helps them succeed. Starting from 7th grade, the students are split into two different math tracks to accommodate for those that are more mathematically inclined. In high school, a variety of AP courses also allows students to push themselves to learn higher level material. There are also clubs for the many things students are interested in including art, science and even gaming. A range of courses in the performing arts also allows students to explore new instruments and roles in the production of stage performances. However one thing that is not as fantastic about the district is the underlaying racism towards minorities. Although in school the importance of inclusion and non-prejudice is spread, there is still a problem when it comes to the media and private conversations…. Read 16 reviews

Sophomore: Plainview-Old Bethpage John F Kennedy High School is a fantastic highschool to send your kids too in every way! The kids here are friendly, most of the time, very very smart, and talented! The academics at POB are one of the very best in the state! I prefer POB over other highly rated districts like Jericho and Syosset because although POB is very academically competitive you still feel at ease attending the highschool! The staff and guidance counseler are super sweet! The food is good for high school food especially the wraps! Additionally, it is very obvious that safety is important to the district! I have never ever felt in danger when I am in school and that is one of my favorite things! POB is amazing!… Read 48 reviews

There is always a sense of family and inclusiveness throughout all of the school and I have made so many pleasant memories that I will keep with me forever.

Senior: The environment mixed with the brilliant teachers and helpful staff create a school experience that is worth remembering. There are a wide variety of high level courses that allow for students to choose the level of academics they wish to study. The music program at NSHS is excellent and, I would say, one of the best a high school can offer. Athletics are one of north shores strong points, and we take pride in the athletics that are offered. There is so much school pride that you can feel throughout the school and this creates a bond with the teachers and students that you cannot find at any other high school…. Read 15 reviews

Senior: My experience at KLSD has been both interesting and boring at once. I think our community is getting much better at noticing and educating on important issues concerning discrimination, race, etc. On the other hand, our district is sort of in a bubble full of white privilege. There is very little diversity and a lack of interest in minorities and America’s issues. Finding a good group of kids, one’s that won’t talk poorly behind your back and have a good sense of ethics, is rare. I have been fortunate enough to find those people and I’m happy to say that they’ve made my experience at this school district all the better,… Read 8 reviews

The teachers do a great job making sure students are comfortable with the material before moving on. The teachers are super supportive and they honestly feel like a friend of my own.

Junior: It’s a very academic school which is great because it offers so many amazing classes but on the other hand there is also enormous pressure placed on students to push themselves into the hardest classes to “look good for college”, which can be viewed as both a good and bad thing. We also have free periods which are AMAZING! Basically the same as a study hall but you’re not required to stay in a classroom and you can hang out in the hallway with friends and during some periods you can leave campus and go grab lunch or hang out outside. In the middle of the day instead of lunch we have FLEX which works the same as a free but you can go see teachers to study or catch up on school work which I’ve found really helpful. Overall the atmosphere is great and teachers really do care about their students which is awesome. You really do have to put in the work though, Brighton’s curriculum is relentless but you have a great team behind you to help complete it. Athletics are amazing as well…. Read 43 reviews

Senior: After switching from a private school to Pittsford Central Schools, the most notable changes were the social and academic opportunities. Academics are my priority, and I found that teachers and classmates are of the same opinion. Varied options for core classes help students thrive and remain engaged. Pittsford’s academics are their strongest value, in my opinion. For extracurriculars, there are countless choices for students. I found my place in music groups and Mock Trial, adding variety to my school day. The sports teams are notoriously competitive and successful. Being a Pittsford athlete requires incredible drive and determination, which is not always positive. My complaint with Pittsford is how administration handles difficult subjects, including racist incidents in the district. The typical response is reminding students that we are a connected community without taking any noticeable action. I commend the addition of a diversity committee, but I have not seen them enact change…. Read 28 reviews

Senior: The Port Washington Union Free School District has provided me with an all-accepting educational community for the past 12 years, and I have been fortunate enough to have such a strong support system working alongside me in my studies. Although more recently the athletic rankings may have been on a decline, the spirit/ camaraderie seen between the huge crowd of students/ staff who come out to supPORT has definitely not. Students are encouraged to take an active role in the school community, making new clubs and social media accounts for clubs/ teams, and entertainment events afterschool at Paul D. Schreiber High School. These include a musical and play, orchestrated by the exceptional theatre/ arts program, and an event entirely unique to Schreiber… Schreiber Slam.

The Jericho School District is a high-achieving and competitive school district. Students always aim to do their best and have shown excellence through their work. The teachers and administration are caring, kind, and strict when needed. They create a safe environment for students to be in and are there for students when needed. Jericho also provides a variety of extracurriculars to help students explore their interests. From sports to clubs, several activities are made available to students. However, one of the main problems at Jericho is the lack of diversity in the schools. There is an Asian majority with a few other ethnicities in the student body.

Before coming to this District, we were constantly moving in NYC. we change 3 different schools with 1 private and 2 public. My child was also part of the Gift and Talent program in NYC. however none can compete against Jericho school. I’ve made the best choice ever by moving to Jericho. The teacher in this schools are great, they constantly communicate with parents and always do extra curriculum activity with child to test their limit in Math and Reading. they have a excellent afterschool sport program. while I cant compare the sport program with other LI schools, but definitely a top notch against NYC none to existent sport program!!! there are dedicated parent group who work together towards the same goal.. great town great school, we love it here.
Jericho school district are the best district I have ever been, I gave you all the support you needed, the most importantly Jericho school district have the best teacher who are very patient and experience about all kind of kids. I am very glad to be at Jericho school district. Especially during covid-19, the online learning have improved a lot and the school district have great procedure for student safety in school.

As a current student at Roslyn High School, I have experienced first hand that teachers are always ready to help and see their students succeed, and form bonds with students to grasp an understanding of each students learning style. The vast variety of clubs and other extra curricular activities ensure that every student has multiple ways to express their interests, and make life long friends. There are many places in the school where one can feel comfortable and make themselves at home with doing homework and enjoying a meal of choice. The sports and art facilities are places where people can exercise and express themselves creatively with encouraging teachers and coaches to push students to their full potential. Being a student at Roslyn ensures that you can explore every opportunity to succeed in your career(s) outside of school.

Overall, I received a well-rounded education throughout my time at Roslyn. I made many incredible friends and there were so many opportunities to get involved with student life. I was a member of the marching band, the GSA, the Astronomy Club, and VEDDA. The course offerings and AP electives were plentiful and most of my professors were great.
I like my school 🙂 There is a lot of support from various teachers, and I really feel supported. Although there are definitely some issues, it is overall pretty good.

TowNSEND HARRIS-Young School with a rich one past. In 1848, the Board of Education founded the New York Free Academy, the first public institution to provide free higher education. This was largely due to the efforts of Townsend Harris, who at the time was President of the Council. The Free Academy later became the City College of New York. And preparatory courses, which provided an “introductory year” before entering the Academy, grew into Townsend Harris High School. School flourished until 1942 years old when it was closed by the mayor of LaGuardia due to budgetary constraints.
In 1984, Townsend Harris reopened in a new location, but with the same spirit and desire as before. The current school has honored its rich tradition from the very beginning, supported by an active group of alumni. Alumni organize internships for students, act as consultants and mentors, and raise funds for special projects. In addition to standard classes, students here can study photography, take master classes in theater arts, journalism, graphic design, computer and engineering sciences.
Students from all five NYC boroughs are eligible to apply to Townsend Harris and are selected on a competitive basis rather than a single entrance exam. Admission to ninth grade is based on standard 7th grade test scores, final exams, and attendance.

Literally a couple of weeks before the start of the new school year, two of my friends at once, independently of each other, decided to change elementary schools for their children. Both hastily forged a rental agreement (or in the common people – “liz”), and both are now looking for nannies who could pick up children after school, because with new schools both lost after school programs – these programs simply do not exist in new schools. The children also suffered – of course, both of them still had friends in the old schools, someone had a good music class, someone had a favorite theater, plus, of course, a familiar atmosphere and a sense of comfort . .. But the mothers are unshakable and are very determined resolutely. And the reason, in general, sounds good – it turns out that both former schools had a low rating: in one – only five out of a possible ten, in the other – oh, Gods – only four. What college can you talk about with such a rating?!
Ranking is a measure of how a school performs on average on national tests. Those same friends of mine who hastily changed schools are firmly convinced that the higher the rating of the school, the better the test results, which means that the better they teach at school.
They are right, of course, and wrong, of course. It’s worth chasing the rating, and at the same time it’s not worth it. But that’s just my opinion.
I am also a mother, and I am also for good schools for my own people and in general for everyone, sorry for the pathos, children of the world, and I perfectly understand those parents who are forced to fake the ill-fated “liz”.
For those who are not yet in the know, a brief lyrical digression: every building, like every shack in our glorious city, belongs to a particular school. Sometimes, no, quite often, the school in your area is not the closest school to you, perhaps, on the contrary, it is there after three turns to the right and two to the left, the school is 15 minutes on foot, and all because you live on the border with another area…
A simple example: on Avenue P, two schools are two steps away from each other – 238 and 177: the first has a six out of ten rating (346 Avenue P), and the second (10 minutes walk ) rating four. Almost all houses that are nose to nose to school 238 belong to school 177… And the question is: what will 80%, or even 90% of immigrants from the former Soviet Union, if they live exactly opposite 177, but are assigned to 238?
That’s right, they’ll forge a “liz”.
But a low rating does not always mean “bad school” or “bad education.”
Any educational institution in New York has many other indicators, which sometimes, together with the rating, show whether it is worth sending a child there or should one still feel sorry for the blood. “Sometimes”, because approximately 65% of New York schools do not have a rating, or they do, but this is classified information, it cannot be found in the public domain for everyone. Therefore, in the case of the same schools 238 and 177, I would think well before lying in order to get the coveted six out of ten. Lie, providing yourself with this uncomfortable existence. After all, the school can often send letters to parents directly to the postal address indicated in the documents. And this is not the only moment for discomfort.
By the way, in the same school 238, which, by the way, received several grants for achievements in a row, as well as silver medals for students’ discoveries, they raise real fans of science. There are wonderful scientific laboratories with many microscopes, telescopes, test tubes, beakers and the ability to conduct scientific experiments. Already in the first grade, children will learn and, most importantly, will see how a frog grows from a tadpole, already in the first grade they will learn how to work with microscopes, learn the stages of development of butterflies, the composition of water . ..
But yes, the rating of the school is four. How this is possible is below.
Interesting statistics for New York
So, how to choose a school, so that later it would not be excruciatingly painful? First, some interesting statistics (attention – all data was obtained by the author from open sources on the Internet, minor statistical errors are possible).
There are currently 4,362 schools in New York. I repeat, only 40-45% of them (each Borough has its own statistics, but I mean – in the whole city) you can find a rating. You can find it here:
http://www.greatschools.org/
This site provides information about any US school. Its creators rely on the data provided to them by the State Department of Education and the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), that is, you can trust the data, but be sure to analyze all the information received.
First, I have already talked about the totality of data about the school – this is what can reflect the whole picture, and not just the rating.
Secondly, you need to understand that each state has, so to speak, its own cockroaches in its head when it comes to education… Yes, there are nationwide criteria, but, believe me, each specific state adds to them its own . For example, in California there are 26 different types and categories of tests, they test separately students with disabilities or poor knowledge of English. In the state of New York, it is not so: the same children with poor knowledge of English take tests along with the rest, of course, these children cannot pass the test as well as those who are fluent in English. What does this mean? This means that such students – talented, loving to learn, as bilinguals often grasp information faster – reduce the overall grade in the school, and only third grade students can pass the tests badly, but this will affect the overall assessment of the school, including 4th and 5th grades. th classes. The worse the tests passed, the lower the rating of the school…
Can you feel what I’m hinting at? A school may have a low rating not because they teach poorly, but because there are many foreigners who, by the third grade, when compulsory testing begins, simply do not have time to learn English at the proper level. At the same time, these are not stupid children who drag school back and do not give your children the opportunity to grow up, but, often, these are children thanks to whom those who speak English well begin to learn Chinese as well – it’s interesting to learn the language of your best school friend . In New York, by the way, there are schools that are very popular among foreigners. Often they have a rating of one out of ten, while no one closes them as ineffective, but why?
Because this is exactly the case when the rating is not an indicator at all.
For example, Manhattan Academy for Arts and Languages (Park Avenue and W 34th St). This is a high school, they teach from the ninth to the twelfth grades. The school is small – only 177 students. Rating: one out of ten. The director of the school, Siv Boletsis, herself once came from Greece. As a child, she had a hard time – at school she was teased because she did not speak English well. The girl grew up, learned English and decided to help those who found themselves in the same situation as she once was. Today this school is one of the few in New York that accepts children who do not speak English at all, and this is in the ninth grade! This school is new, it was opened only in 2010, most of the teachers are bilingual. As for the students, 85% of them are Hispanic, 6% are of Asian origin, and 87% of the total number of students have problems with English and are engaged in a special program. But the tests at the end of the year they pass exactly the same as those who speak English from birth! At the same time, anonymous surveys showed that 89% of students believe that teachers inspire them to study (in New York this indicator is worse on average and is 76%), 89% of students feel safe in the corridor, toilet rooms (again, the indicator in the city is worse – 83%), 100 % of the teachers of this school believe that the school maintains order and discipline – and this is against 74% in the city, and an average of 27% of students do not attend classes, which is again below the citywide indicators. Here is your rating.
So much for Spanish-speaking students – yes, let’s not hide the fact that we try not to send our children to places where blacks or “Spanish” are in the majority, a priori writing schools where they predominate as bad. I will return to the ethnic composition and its connection with the low ranking of the school later.
So, Brooklyn currently has the most schools with 1,466, 975 of which do not report or have no rating.
Let me explain the difference between “do not report” or “do not have”: private schools are not required to report to the public and the state on the quality of their education. It is clear why – they are all financed from the pocket of their parents, not the state, so they are obliged to report to their parents.
By the way, I know a decent number of mothers and fathers whose children study in private schools, while mothers and fathers have no idea about the quality of education in these schools. The other day, a close friend of mine, while enrolling his son in a $23,000 private school, responded to my question about the quality of schooling (it is clear that in this case, other indicators, such as ethnic composition or the percentage of free lunches it is not necessary to take into account), he said literally: “people say. ”
Well, word of mouth is good too. But it would be better to ask anyway, especially if three years in a row you have to lay out 23 thousand from your pocket. In general, private schools do not report final test results.
There are schools that teach children only up to the second grade, that is, children simply do not take the mandatory tests in them, because they start from the third grade.
There are schools – but this is generally beyond good and evil – that really were not certified at the end of the year, that is, the percentage of those who passed the test on average in the school does not reach 10%, and every 10% is one point to school rating.
By the way, charter schools do not have the right to hide information about the level of passing tests, because they are funded by the state (in the next issues of “RB” we will analyze the effectiveness of such schools in the city, do not miss it). Therefore, finding a rating for a private school is also easy.
Manhattan is second in terms of the number of schools, there are 1117 of them, followed by the Bronx – 920, then Queens – 642 schools, 215 schools on Staten Island.
The whole city, I repeat, is divided into districts, each house is assigned to a particular school. And if you are a fan of education for your child, and are ready to move anywhere in New York, if only the child goes to a good school (sometimes, however, you don’t even need to move – many good schools accept into their ranks based on the results of exams or lotteries, they no matter where you live), then you are in Queens. In the so-called area number 26. On the one hand, it rests on Little Neck Bay, on the left it is limited to Utopia Pkw, from below Grand Central Pkw – detailed information about the location of each area can also be found on the website.
This is an amazing place. Amazing and spectacular. Judge for yourself: out of 21 elementary schools, eight have a rating of ten, nine schools have a rating of nine, and four schools have a rating of eight.
That’s it, moms and dads, there are simply no other schools there!
The same with the secondary school, the lowest rating for which in the district is eight.
What happens then in high school?
And then the ratings for schools literally fall down. And the highest is only six out of ten.
How is this possible?
This leads to only one thought – the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of leadership. After all, high schools get those who brilliantly studied in secondary and elementary schools, while academic performance falls …
I repeat – this is already a question of the effectiveness of leadership. Judge for yourself: two identical schools can be on the same street, two steps away from each other and have fundamentally different ratings.
Case study: Brooklyn Schools No. 249and No. 6. Both are on Flatbush Ave. Both schools are predominantly black and Hispanic, many of the students came to the US from Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Panama, Honduras, El Salvador, Haiti . .. White students in them less than three percent. Both schools have a high percentage of those receiving free breakfasts and lunches. What does it say? About the fact that the incomes of the parents of students leave much to be desired, and they are not able to pay even $ 1.25 per day for lunch…
At the same time, both schools have very high, almost 100% attendance. Schools are open until late at night. At the same time, the school’s rating is 249- nine, and the rating of school No. 6 is five … At the same time, there are 249 of those who speak English poorly in school, almost twice as many as in school No. 6! These schools practically look into each other’s windows, children from the same street study in them, why is there such a huge difference?
Maybe because school number 6 is designed for 600 students, but it currently has about 900 students?
Or maybe the whole point is that with the same educational program to study at school No. 249much more interesting and easier? It’s easier precisely because school principal Eliza Brown put one iron rule at the forefront: we must do everything so that every child wants to go to school every day!
Surprisingly, she achieved her goal: even children from poor families, practically from the area that we contemptuously call the “ghetto”, go to school not only on weekdays, but also on their own – on Saturday!
Forget the rating.
So, if the rating is not an indicator or if the school hides it, what else is an important indicator and what should I pay attention to when choosing a school?
Ethnic composition.
There are many excellent schools in New York City, where black students predominate and do well on tests. There are bad schools in New York with a white majority. It is necessary to look at the ethnic composition in a heap, taking into account the average attendance, and, for example, the presence of a metal detector in the room (its presence is more a minus than a plus!), And the area itself is sure to be there – how many shelters for the homeless there, for example.
If the school is in a good area, then the composition of the students is not important. School 312 in Bergen Beach is a good example: more than half of its students are black and Hispanic. At the same time, ps312 is one of the best elementary schools in the city. And for me, a high school with a majority of Asians is worse than one with a majority of blacks. No, of course, Asians are known for their hard work and perseverance, usually the schools where they prevail are in good standing. But the percentage of smokers there is always higher, not a fact, of course, but it is quite possible that under the pressure of new friends, your non-smoking child may also smoke.
Load on teachers.
Yes, it is not uncommon for a school with consistently high rates to have up to 22 students per teacher, while the state average is 15 students per teacher… we do not think that he will become the 23rd person in the class. But in vain, overcrowding of good schools is a serious problem. After all, this means that the child will receive much less attention than in the classroom, where the load is, say, 13 children per adult.
When choosing a school, you should pay attention to the number of children in the class and in general to the number of children in the school. So, in 2013 Brooklyn Technical High school had 5323 students. The popularity of this institution is understandable – it is the only high school in Brooklyn with a rating of 10. But can you imagine what a crowd in the corridors of this institution?!
Come on – a corridor… The teachers themselves say that individual attention to each student is out of the question. According to an anonymous survey, only 48% of teachers believe that the school has effective management. And only 66% of students believe that teachers inspire them and help them learn. It’s all because of the overcrowding of the school. On the one hand, its leadership is proud, calling it the largest and most multinational in the city, on the other hand, the same leadership recognizes that this is a problem.
Parental trust rating.
Be sure to pay attention to the reviews of parents, especially if there are a lot of them: it’s hard to judge by three or four, but when there are several dozen of them and all of them, for example, are negative … It’s hard to imagine that a student angry at school registers 33 times on 33 different IP- addresses to tell everyone the “truth” about the school.
Sometimes it happens that a school with a low test score has a very good parent rating. And who knows what is more worth believing, especially if it is an elementary school? For me, a good atmosphere and caring teachers are more important than an extra point for the rating.
Special programs.
By this I mean literally everything. The more different programs there are in the school, the more interesting it is for the child to study there. Plus, “special programs” also means those programs that are necessary for certain categories of children, for example, a speech therapist. If your child needs a speech therapist, check if the school can provide one specifically.
Again, “gift and talented” classes – this should also be clarified when enrolling or transferring a child from school to school.
After school: Specify if this program is mandatory or if it is a lottery. Yes, and this is also possible – in order to relieve yourself of all responsibility to parents (then try to prove to a particular mother that her child, according to the school, needed after school less than the child of a neighbor!). In order to take part in the lottery, you must fill out a special form. Some schools also play the lottery for admission to the school. This can be found on the schools’ websites.
Speaking of these sites. Each school in New York has its own page on the Internet – it must have. I can’t say that it is particularly informative, but it’s still worth visiting such a page before visiting the school itself. Sometimes the information gleaned there is enough to not even go to school.
Another helpful site is http://insideschools.org .
This site does not publish ratings, it does not cooperate with the Center for Statistics or the Department of Education, but it does provide other interesting first-hand information – you can find good photos, independent expert assessments and interesting statistics there. True, not all schools. But, as my third-grader son likes to say, whoever seeks will always find.
Look for your school, do not rush to fake a “liz” or persuade your mother-in-law to move to you so that there is someone to take the child to school far away. Don’t feel bad if your child goes to first grade at a low-ranking school – remember that a warm atmosphere for a student from a kindergarden class is more important than how someone there already passed the test in the third grade.
Middle and high school is another story, but even there you should not rest only on the rating. If a child wants to study, he will study well in any school, if he doesn’t want to, neither the school’s rating, nor the color of his classmates’ skin, nor the low percentage of free lunches will help him. Good luck searching!

New York School System
To send your child to a good school in New York, you need to make arrangements at least one year in advance. The sooner you start your search, the easier it will be to apply and get into the school of your choice. For admission to a good kindergarten, some parents enroll their child there even before he/she is born.
Pre-kindergarten School , or nursery, for children aged 3 to 4 years. Usually this is the elementary school level (Elementary school) . Primary school education usually lasts until 5th grade, but in many schools in New York it continues until 6th grade. The first year of elementary school in the United States is classified as kindergarten. Kindergartens are designed for children aged 5 years. Education at the middle school (Middle school) lasts from 6th to 8th grade, and at the senior high school (High school) from 9th to 12th grade.
There are two types of schools in New York: free secondary (public school) and private schools (private school).
New York private schools are open to all children in the city, regardless of where they live. The application process, like tuition, varies by school. Sometimes tuition fees can reach $30,000 per year. However, in order to get into a good school, you need to withstand tough competition, and for this you need to think everything through in advance, at least a year in advance. The receipt of scholarships and financial aid depends on the academic performance of the student and on the financial situation of his family. All schools require an entrance test. Some schools also require you to write an essay and/or pass an interview. It is best to contact the administration of a particular school to find out all the requirements and sign up for testing.
New York Public Schools offer free education to any child who has reached school age. There are 4 types of public schools, which differ from each other in terms of admission.
1. Public schools, admission to which depends on the place of residence
Admission to Public School , Kindergarten , Primary School or Secondary School depends on where you live. There are 32 school districts in all New York City districts, six of which are in Manhattan.
School allocation is handled by district public school offices. For enrollment, you need to come with your child and all the necessary documents to the district office. There are two district offices in Manhattan, which cover all 6 districts of Manhattan and the Bronx:
District office No. 9
District Manager: Peter Heaney, Jr.
School districts 1, 2, 4 and 7
333 7th Avenue
+1 212-356-7500
District office No. 10
District Manager: Gale Reeves
School districts 3, 5, 6 and 7
4360 Broadway
+1 917-521-3700
Required documents:
Valid proof of your place of residence
Birth certificate, passport, or baptismal certificate
Immunization report
Child record card (recommended but not required)
Child’s Individual Education Program
To find out which office you should go to and which school district you are in, call 311 from New York or visit the US Department of Education’s New York Area Finder page. For more information, see the student admissions page.
2. Citywide public schools available to all children in the city
This term is usually applied to public high schools . However, some kindergartens, primary and secondary schools also do not have residency restrictions, so if you are unlucky with local free schools, consider this option.
3. Charter Schools
An alternative to public and private schools are charter schools that combine features of both. They are operated independently of New York State and are focused on bringing new ideas and developing community education. If you are interested in more information about charter schools, please call: +1(212)4378300
4. Public High Schools
New York Public High Schools have no residency restrictions. Most children apply to high school during their last year of high school. Some schools include both middle and high programs and therefore do not require such applications to be made after high school.
5. Specialized Public High Schools
New York City has several specialized high schools that are also the city’s top high schools. These schools are called specialized, as each of them has its own profile. For example, if your child is interested in the performing arts, you might want to look into one of the schools with such a focus.
For admission to any specialized school, the student will have to pass an entrance test (SHAT). You can find the date and place of passing such exams on the website of the New York Department of Education.
Many of your questions can also be answered by contacting the New York City Department of Education by calling +1(212)3743990 or emailing [email protected].

We will help you not only choose the right school, but also prepare for admission and study, arrange documents and a visa.

FAQs
AMERICA’S MOST ACCREDITED
We’re so proud!
Nationally only 10% of daycares are accredited – nearly 100% of our learning centers are. That’s a big difference,
and that means KinderCare kids are getting the very best. Here’s why.
SCHOOL-READY
What Learning Looks Like
Our talented early-childhood teachers set kids down the path toward becoming lifelong learners in a positive, safe, and nurturing environment.
Cedar Bluff KinderCare Programs
Infant Programs (6 weeks–1 year)
Leaving your baby in someone else’s care is a big step. Everyone at our
centers—most importantly, our naturally gifted infant teachers—will work with
you to make sure the transition goes smoothly. When you step into our infant
classroom, you’ll see how much we want your infant to feel safe, loved, and
ready to explore their world.
Toddler Programs (1–2 Years)
Everything in our toddler classroom is designed for little explorers. That’s
because a lot is going on at this age. When your child is wandering all over the
place, that means they’re learning and discovering new things every day. We’ll
help them explore their interests (and find new ones!) as they play and learn.
Discovery Preschool Programs (2–3 Years)
This age is filled with so much wonder and curiosity. That’s why we offer a ton
of books and toys and bring artwork down to kids eye level. Children in
discovery preschool also begin to learn how we all work together in a
classroom. Simple math and science, pretend play, and group play help them
get used to a more structured school setting.
Preschool Programs (3–4 Years)
This age is all about expression, when kids really start to form their own ideas
about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our
preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create
artwork, and play pretend—all the skills needed for their big next step:
kindergarten!
Prekindergarten Programs (4–5 Years)
When you walk into one of our pre-K classrooms, you’ll see artwork and
writing displayed around the room. Labels are everywhere to help kids connect
letters with words. You’ll also see pictures on the walls that reflect the families
in our community. Your child will also deepen their knowledge in language,
math, science, Spanish, and social skills.
School Break Programs (preschool, prekindergarten, and school-age)
Winter break, spring break, summer break—when school’s out (but you still need to work), you
can count on KinderCare to provide a safe and supportive learning environment that’s focused
on fun. We welcome children ages 5–12 during school break times and make sure they have a
sensational, screen-free experience they won’t forget.
Participating Child Care Aware Center
KinderCare partners with Child Care Aware® of America to offer fee assistance for
Active Duty military families and flexible support to fit their needs when care at a Child
Development Center on the installation is not available.
Learning Adventures – Enrichment Program
Cooking Academy™ (3 – 12 Years)
In Cooking Academy, kids learn new recipes from cultures around the world and
develop a healthy relationship with food. They’ll whip up everything from Southwest
rainbow lettuce wraps to pumpkin muffins, building their skills in STEM, communication,
and more along the way. And yes—little chefs get to eat their culinary creations!
Music Explorers™ (2 – 4 Years)
KinderCare families are already giving a standing ovation to our newest Learning
Adventures program: Music Explorers! Kids will learn to sing, move, listen, play
instruments, and even create their own tunes. Our original curriculum blends math,
science, social studies, literacy, and mindfulness (think yoga!) for a uniquely KinderCare
way of learning the foundations of music.
Phonics Adventures® (2 – 4 Years)
Learning how to read is a whole lot of fun at KinderCare! We help kids grow to love
books and words (and get ready for kindergarten) in our Phonics Adventures program.
From discovering the basics of vowels to practicing poetry, kids learn all about letters
and sounds in small-group lessons made just for their age group. (Bonus: Kids who
attend our phonics program are more prepared than their peers for school—and we
have the data to prove it.)
STEM Innovators (3-8 Years)
You’ve probably heard a lot about how important STEM education is for your child, but
what does that really mean? Our STEM Innovators program takes kids’ natural ability to
make sense of the world and applies it to robotics, chemistry, coding, geology, and
more. While your child experiments, they’ll discover how to use technology to do
amazing things!
Our Teachers
We’re the only company in early childhood education to select teachers based on natural talent. Being a great educator isn’t enough though.
KinderCare teachers are also amazing listeners, nurturers, boo-boo fixers, and smile-makers. Put more simply,
we love our teachers and your child will, too.
Meet just a few of our amazing KinderCare teachers!
A KINDERCARE TEACHER WITH
An Artist’s Heart
“My classroom is full of art!” says Mary Annthipie-Bane, an award-winning early childhood educator at KinderCare. Art and creative expression, she says, help children discover who they really are.
We put our best-in-class teachers in a best-in-class workplace. We’re so proud to have been named one of Gallup’s 37 winners of the Great Workplace Award.
When you put great teachers in an engaging center, your children will experience
an amazing place to learn and grow.

The Patton Family – KinderCare Parent
“Our daughter loves coming to Kindercare. So many great and loving people, plus she gets to learn”
Adam S.
– KinderCare Parent
“Home away from Home”
Betsy H. – KinderCare Parent
Both of my children have been at KinderCare since they were ten weeks old. They are now three and one. The staff members at KinderCare are caring, supportive and absolutely wonderful. My children love going to “school” every day to see their teacher, participate in crafts and play with the other classmates. The curriculum in each classroom is very impressive and we are always amazed by what our children learn each week. The teachers are always trying to come up with creative learning activities. The staff will also work with you and your child on any issues to help them progress. They have great hours and are very accommodating to all parent’s needs. I would recommend KinderCare to anyone looking for a good daycare that surpasses expectations.
Danielle B. – KinderCare Parent
“We love the way you love our kiddo”
The Stamp Family – KinderCare Parent
“I love that the kids are always learning new things”
Emily A – KinderCare Parent
“We love the caring hearts and big smiles that greet us everyday. I love that my son is at a safe, fun place to learn everyday.”
Amanda T – KinderCare Parent
Our daughter enrolled at KinderCare at ten months. Our son joined her there once he came on the scene. Our children have gone through bottles, diapers, the alphabet, numbers and more at KinderCare. They each made their first non-family friends at KinderCare and have had great relationships with staff members. In sum, at KinderCare our children have had the security and stability they’ve needed along with the imaginative and physical space to be a kid, which is a balance we value.
D. Family – KinderCare Parent
I absolutely love this daycare, the directors Robin and Rachel are amazing. They are kind and sweet and listen to everything you have to say. They also treat my baby like she’s one of their own. My 2 year old has learned so much in the past year she’s been going here and I couldn’t be more thankful of her teachers! She does sign language, she can already sing her ABCs, her vocabulary has taken off so much since she’s been there. They teach and play with the kids here. I love the activities they do every day!! Thank you so much Robin and Rachel and all of the teachers!!! I couldn’t do it without them!!

Photo stories
American actor Philip Clapp is known to us under the pseudonym Johnny Knoxville – he took the name of his hometown in Tennessee as his surname. The actor gained fame thanks to television: at the beginning of the 2000s, he, in the company of Jeff Tremaine and Spike Jonze, released the show Freaks on MTV. He tied himself to a rocket, tested a pepper spray on himself, threw himself at a Siberian bull – to the delight of the audience. The project was closed in 2002 after the third season due to complaints: despite the title credit “Don’t try it at home,” Jackass had imitators whose attempts to perform idiotic stunts periodically ended in injuries. But later, Freaks had several spin-offs – “Savages”, “Long live Bam!” and “Apartment pogrom”. The franchise also includes several feature films.
Another notable achievement of Knoxville was The Dukes of Hazzard (2005), a revival of an old series about the adventures of the inhabitants of the American hinterland in an orange Dodge Charger muscle car with a Confederate flag on the roof.
The artist also starred in other films: among others, in the second part of Men in Black, The Convinced Bachelor, Daltrey Calhoun, Movie 43, We Summon Darkness, and Unbearable Grandfather. The latter was nominated for an Oscar in the category of best makeup. In 2017, the actor worked on an adaptation of the Hawaiian Dick comic as an executive producer, but filming has not started like this since.
Freaks 4 is expected to be released in 2021, and as usual, it was not without incident – in December 2020, Nosquill was admitted to the hospital on the second day of filming after the tuba incident on the treadmill. This was not the first and, apparently, not the last time that Knoxville fell into the hands of doctors. On March 11, Johnny Knoxville celebrates his 50th birthday.

1.) Head Start Programs In Houston
Head Start programs offer low cost daycare for income-eligible families. If you are low income or receive government benefits like SNAP, Medicaid, WIC, or free lunch then there is a good chance that you could qualify for a head start program.
There are 2 types of head start programs:
Head Start – This is for children ages 3 through 5 years old.
Early Head Start – Children 6 months through 3 years go to early head start programs.
Head Start programs offer discounts on daycare in Houston. Because of this, they are popular, and sometimes space is limited. In order to apply for a head start program, you will need to contact a program near you.
In order to find a Houston head start program near you, you can visit a website like HCDE to find local centers.
The main head start locators in Houston are Advance, Baker Ripley, Gulf Coast Community Services, and Harris County Department of Education. These agencies oversee head start programs in various areas of town. Even if you called the wrong program the individual answering can connect you with the right organization for your area.
Harris County Department of Education – 6300 Irvington Blvd, Houston, TX 77022 – 713. 672.9343
To learn more about how Houston head start programs work, see the guide we created called How To Apply For Head Start Programs In Houston. You will find step-by-step instructions on applying and contact numbers to help you find a low-cost daycare near you.

3.) Community Centers In Houston That Offer Daycare
Community centers often offer daycare services at a lower cost than for-profit daycares. They may also offer other programs that can help stretch your budget, such as after-school programs or discounts for families in need.
If you live near a City of Houston multi-service center or a Harris County community center these are good places to check for cheap childcare programs in Houston. Many of these locations offer supportive services for children like daycare, after-school programs, and summer camp programs. Once your children get out of school for the summer, you can contact county community centers to learn about any free programs they might offer. Programs are typically offered to children and adolescents to keep them occupied during the summer months.
City Of Houston Multi-Service Centers
The City of Houston community centers is called multi-service centers. At these locations, you can typically find supportive services like senior programs, WIC, and sometimes even childcare.

4.) Church Daycare Programs In Houston
If you attend a large church, there is a good chance that they offer some form of daycare. Many religious organizations offer daycare services at a reduced rate or even free of charge. Some churches also offer scholarships to help low income families pay for daycare.
Again, if you attend church on a regular basis speak to a member of your congregation to see if they offer daycare services. If so chances are this will be a cheaper option than going to a for-profit daycare in Houston.
If you do not have a church that you regularly attend, try contacting a church in your area to see if they offer daycare services. Another way to find religious organizations in Houston that could help with childcare is by reaching out to the Alliance of Community Assistance Ministries. This is a network of local churches that offer basic need services like rent, food, clothing, and in some cases cheap daycare.
5.) YMCA Child Care Centers In Houston
The YMCA offers a daycare program for children ages 6 weeks to 5 years old. They also offer affordable Houston after-school programs for kids 5 to 12 years old.
Houston YMCA Day Care Program
For ages 0-3, the program is designed to meet the needs of each individual child, and they offer updates so that parents know what their kids have been up to.
YMCA’s preschool focuses on a creative curriculum that gives students the ability to explore and learn at an exponential rate. In addition, YMCA staff works closely with parents in order to ensure their children are receiving the proper support needed for this age group.
To qualify for low cost to free YMCA childcare costs you will need to apply for financial assistance through Workforce Solutions.
After School Programs At Houston YMCA
The after-school program offers children a safe secure environment to learn and grow. This is especially important for children who come from single-parent homes or have working parents that can’t be home right after school.
Kids can get help with homework, eat snacks, participate in activities, and more. The YMCA can even accommodate children with special needs in their after-school program.
To register for any of their after-school programs in Houston, your child’s school will need to be partnered with the YMCA. You can check the list of schools that offer a YMCA after-school program by visiting the YMCA After School Site Liting webpage.
Child Watch Program
If you have a membership to the YMCA you can drop your child off at the Child Watch Program. While you attend YMCA classes, they will watch your child for 2 hours.
During this time they offer engaging activities like arts and crafts, exercise, learning activities, or outdoor play.
6.) Boys & Girls Clubs Of Greater Houston
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Houston offer affordable summer programs for children ages 6 to 17 years old. They have locations all over the city and offer things like:
Field trips
STEAM Camps
Activity camps
Team sports
Daily meals
Mentors and role models to learn from
The hours of these Houston daycare programs differ depending on the time of year.
School Year – 2 pm to 7 pm
Extended Days 9 am to 5 pm
Summer Time – 9 am to 5 pm
Houston Boys & Girls Club Membership Prices
Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Houston provides services to the youth in their area. Membership costs $10 per school year or $25 for the summer, and they offer programs that teach children life skills such as leadership, character building, etc.
There are potential waitlists for memberships, so keep this in mind when trying to apply for a Boys & Girls Club membership for your child.
Boys & Girls Club Locations In Houston
Below is a listing of the local Boys & Girls Clubs in the area. You can contact these locations to learn more about affordable summer programs in Houston for your kids and teens.

Johnny Mitchell – 4420 Avenue P Galveston, TX 77550 – (409) 763-2227
7. ) Talk To Other Parents About Houston Daycare Options
Another way to find low cost daycare centers is by talking with other parents that you know. This can include coworkers with children, your family members, or even next-door neighbors who have kids.
When speaking with these individuals you will want to ask the following questions:
Where do they take their kids for daycare?
How much do they spend each week/month on daycare?
Are they happy with the service that their daycare provides?
Would they recommend their daycare provider to other parents?
Do they trust the people caring for their children?
One advantage of asking people that you know about daycare is you will get an honest option. They will share all the good and bad things about their daycare experience which can help you in your decision-making process.
Editor’s Note: On a personal note, my wife and I selected the daycare nanny we did because of a remark made by a friend about their nanny. The family friend claimed that their kid reaches out to hug their nanny every time they drop off their kid. This gave them assurance that the nanny genuinely cared for and loved their child.
8.) Use Social Media To Find Affordable Childcare In Houston
In today’s day and age, social media is a powerful tool that can be used for many different things – including finding affordable daycare in Houston.
Two social media platforms that you can use to find low cost Houston childcare are Nextdoor and Facebook.
Searching Nextdoor For Affordable Houston Daycare Centers
If you are not familiar with Nextdoor, it is a social media platform that connects people who live in the same neighborhood.
To find daycare centers in your area, all you have to do is log into your Nextdoor account and click on the “Groups” tab. Then type in “daycare (your city/town name)” into the search bar and hit enter.
For example, if you live in Katy, Texas – you would type in “daycare katy tx” into the search bar.
This should bring up a list of daycare groups in your area that you can join.
Once you have joined one or more of these groups, start asking around to see if anyone knows of any daycare centers that provide affordable daycare services.
Facebook Daycare Groups
You can also use Facebook groups to find daycare centers in your area that provide affordable daycare services.
Here are a couple of childcare Facebook groups in Houston that you can check out:
Houston Nanny Share
Houston Childcare & Sitters
Houston Moms Group
9.) Groupon Discount Child Care Options
Maybe you didn’t realize this, but you can also find cheap daycare in Houston by visiting Groupon. Groupon is a website that offers deep discounts on various goods and services- including daycare.
When you search “childcare” on Groupon you will see a listing of Houston daycare centers. The centers found here offer deep discounts on their childcare services. Discounts range from anywhere from 40 to 80% off the regular cost.
Typically these companies will offer their discounted prices from one week to a month. After this period ends you will pay the normal price for daycare.
10.) Living Social: Find Cheap Daycare In Houston
Living Social is just like Groupon. Groupon actually purchased Living Social, so you may see similar deals on both websites. The one difference between the two discount websites is that Groupon tends to only list more established companies. Living Social on the other hand allows newer businesses to post discounted deals.
Again Living Social is another way that you can get low cost daycare in Houston on a limited basis.
In this section, you will find a table full of daycare centers in Houston. You may be able to find a cheap daycare center near you, by calling these centers.

You can search for low-cost daycare programs via city, county, or zip code. They also allow you to look for other supportive services like after-school care, night care, snacks provided, and more.You can search for childcare centers in Houston via zipcode, address, and more. You can even choose nighttime daycare centers and select other options.
Once you have made your selections the database will provide you with the daycare name, address, phone number, and more.

Again, to find licensed daycare centers in Houston (or Texas) visit the Texas Health and Human Services website, enter your geographic information, and choose the childcare provider of your choice.
15.) Collaborative For Children (Houston Daycare Finder)
Collaborative for Children offers a childcare locator tool for 13 counties in the greater Houston area.

16.) Care.com: Babysitter Co-Ops And More
Care.com offers a number of “care” services for seniors, pets, and children. Then one feature I want to highlight is the Co-Op feature.
A parent Co-Op is a group of parents who band together to provide daycare services for each other. This is an excellent way to get affordable daycare in Houston because you do not pay for the cost of daycare. In exchange for watching your kid, you offer to watch other people’s children who are in the co-op.
Care.com allows you to join an existing Co-Op or create your own Houston babysitter co-op if there are none in your area.
17.) Use A Babysitter App To Find Low Cost Houston Daycare
A babysitting app could also connect you to a low cost babysitter in Houston. The way these apps work is that parents post when they need a babysitter and then interested babysitters can apply for the job. With some apps, you can even view the profiles of babysitters and hire them to watch your children.
Some apps that you can use include:
Helpr
Seeking Sitters
Sittercity
Sitter Pro
Bambino
UrbanSitter
18.) United Way Houston Childcare Options
The Houston United Way is another resource that can help you to find low cost daycare. When you visit their Child Care Center webpage you will see a listing of Houston’s head start programs and nonprofits that offer affordable childcare. You can also call the United Way at 211 to learn more about childcare resources or other basic needs programs.
19.) Out 2 Learn (Houston Summer Programs & After-School Programs)
Out 2 Learn is a website that helps you to find affordable Houston after-school and summer programs in your area. You can search for summer programs in Houston by zip code, days available, age range, gender, program types, and more.
To find a summer program or after-school program in Houston, simply visit the Out 2 Learn website.
Free Childcare For Service Industry Workers
There is a program called SIR or Service Industry Recovery Program that offers financial assistance for parents who work in service industries. Those industries were greatly impacted during the pandemic, therefore this program prodides free childcare for one year if you qualify.
The industries that may qualify you for this free childcare program in Houston include:
Hotels
Restaurants
Food Delivery
Gyms
Movie Theaters
Amusement Parks
Clothing Stores
Gas Stations
Grocery Stores
If you work in any of the above areas, consider applying for this childcare program. You can do so by calling Workforce Solutions at 888. 469.5627 or visiting their website.
Conclusion
Houston has many low cost daycare programs to choose from, and the best one for you will be based on your budget, location, and other factors.
Friends, family members, coworkers, and your child’s school district are great resources for finding a quality program that fits within your budget.
You can also contact these organizations directly to learn more about their rates and availability.
Hopefully, this article provided you with the information you need to make an informed decision about choosing an affordable Houston daycare program for your child.

HOUSTON RUSSIAN KINDERGARTEN OPENS SUMMER SEASON – Our Texas – Russian Newspaper in Houston, Dallas, San-Antonio, Austin, Texas
What to do with your child in the summer is a problem for many Houston residents. The Russian-speaking kindergarten “Mashenka” invites children from 2 to 5 years old to enroll in the summer program and in the autumn semester. The head of the kindergarten, Maria Levina, answers questions from our correspondent.
A few words for those who read about your kindergarten for the first time.
With the birth of our youngest daughter, my husband and I realized the need for a kindergarten where our child would receive his first social skills in Russian. Immersion in the language environment is much more effective for the child than just learning the language. But we did not find a similar structure in our city. So we had to organize a Russian kindergarten ourselves.
What structure did you manage to organize during this time?
We keep the home kindergarten format. A group of 7 children is attended by 3 people: a teacher, an educator and a cook-nanny. It is difficult to finance such a structure, but we do not want to give up this intimate atmosphere. Let the kindergarten remind the child of the house. In a small format, there are more opportunities to provide children with psychological comfort, especially since we have children who did not fit into large teams and came to us not only for the basics of the Russian language, but also for such a homely atmosphere.
Do you know why children are brought to you? Or do you by default think that the main thing is the Russian-speaking environment?
When parents arrive, we ask them to fill out a short questionnaire. Answering questions, they introduce us to the child: his habits, fears, hobbies, describe, according to their home observations, how best to negotiate with the baby or at what point to stop and stop persuading him to eat. At the same time, parents write their wishes, what they expect. Wishes are different. Parents of younger children want a regimen, proper nutrition, and care. For older children, learning and making friends are at the forefront. Some specifically note the individual approach in connection with past problems in large teams.
You mentioned proper nutrition and routine. Do you still feed your kids homemade meals and keep a separate sleeping room?
Yes, of course. We believe that hot homemade food is essential. As the child grows, the acquisition of eating habits helps the proper formation of the digestive system. We offer our pupils four meals a day (hot breakfast, fruit snack, hot lunch and afternoon snack), which is prepared by our wonderful chef Galya. Parents are often surprised: the child does not have lunch at home, but eats with pleasure in the kindergarten.
Our children sleep in a separate room. Everyone has a bed. Before going to bed, we always change into pajamas. The body must fully rest in order to be active in the second half of the day.
How is the educational side of your project developing?
Excellent teachers work with us. All have special education, experience in kindergartens and experience in teaching children a language as a foreign language. Since many children come from bilingual families and Russian is not their first language, the standard methods of early development that are used in Russia cannot be directly used.
We have a schedule that includes speech development classes, the basics of literacy, learning to read and write, developing games. We hold music classes and creative workshops, alternating them so that the children do not get bored from the monotony, on the one hand, and so that parents who do not want to take their child to us every day have the opportunity to choose the classes that they think will be more interesting and useful for their child.
You mentioned early development techniques. Do you use any in your work?
We do not use a specific methodology. We believe that children are so diverse and not similar to each other that it makes no sense to adjust them all to one method. But of course, we don’t want to reinvent the wheel either. Therefore, we use those in well-known methods that we consider useful for our children. For example, we took the principle from the Montessori methodology: I will help you do it yourself. The Waldorf method reminds us all the time that the development of creativity, fantasy, and imagination up to a certain age is more important than simple reading, counting, and writing skills. We always try to learn from professionals. For example, our latest finds are the work of Elena Makarova and Evgenia Katz. Elena Makarova, art therapist and writer, author of the well-known trilogy “How to fashion a snort”. Using the example of her creative activities, Elena tells how to communicate with children, how to teach (no matter what), what should not be expected from a child and up to what age, at what age you should start to worry and because of what. Evgenia Katz arranges game developing seminars for children from 1.5 to 14 years old. We use her books and try to learn from experience.
Tell me, with such a “busy” schedule, do the children have time to play, and do you and your colleagues have time to read to the children, just to talk to them?
Of course! The game is the main principle of our work. The child needs to play a lot, and we try to make all our activities look like a game and be interesting and fun.
We read books all the time. In the morning, during classes, as educational material, while the children fall asleep, in the afternoon, in the evening, while we are waiting for the parents. Books are our main material.
Thank you very much, Maria, for an interesting story.

Our Childcare Program
Childcare programs at the North End Montessori School in Manchester, New Hampshire offer families an affordable daycare program and education experience.
Conveniently located in the heart of downtown Manchester, our multi-age campus consists of two buildings and fifteen unique classrooms which span a city block, with ample free parking. We are proud to be the largest urban Montessori School in New Hampshire!
Our history of success and exciting approach to childcare has earned our school the honor of being designated a host site for Child Care Aware (CCA). This means that our facility is regularly used to provide professional development, workshops and seminars, and continuing education to early childhood educators and members of the NH Montessori Association when they host trainings on our campus.
Our Toddler Child Care Classrooms
Our warm, welcoming environment for children empowers them to benefit from their daily classroom experience. Unlike a traditional child care development center, each toddler classroom is designed just for toddlers and serves as a unique space for each child to begin their development journey toward independence. We focus on age-appropriate developmental tasks that foster self-care, balance and movement, cognitive development, gross and fine motor skills, language and speech development.
Our Unique Educational Plans, Toys and Learning Tools
Our clean and spacious toddler classrooms are thoughtfully-designed with educational toys and learning tools placed at eye-level for toddlers’ easy access. Throughout our school community, specialized learning toys and kinesthetic teaching tools, called Montessori apparatus and didactics, are part of the prepared environment that encourages growth and supports each of the critical stages of your child’s development.
Our Child Safety Protocols
Child safety and security are our top priority. Our Emergency Operations Plan helps keep children safe as we follow all local and state child safety requirements. For example, we regularly practice mandated protocols such as fire drill evacuations, secure campus, and shelter in place procedures. As part of our school programs, we help children with experiences including transitions to and from safety drills, with age-appropriate discussion and support.
How Montessori Childcare is Different from Traditional Daycare
Our Montessori toddler child care community is different from traditional daycare in five key ways.
Highly Educated Teachers
Our toddler program follows the Montessori philosophy. Our toddler teachers are experienced, loving, caring, and enthusiastic professionals who specialize in toddler care in our pre-Montessori environment. Our preschool, kindergarten, and elementary teachers often have more advanced education than most typical in-home daycare providers, child care teachers, and public child care centers, preschools, and elementary schools. The majority of teachers at North End Montessori School have multiple advanced degrees. Our lead preschool through elementary teachers are certified Montessorians who draw upon their Montessori credentialing to implement the methodology.
Supportive Environment for Children
Everything about the environment for children is beautifully appointed to support organic learning for each child. This means that our teaching methods, tools and materials support active play in a welcoming environment that invites curiosity and encourages contemplation. The colors are warm and soothing, rather than simply bright primary colors throughout.
Mixed Age Classrooms Versus Single Grade Classrooms
Our mixed age classrooms promote academic experiences that fit each child’s unique learning style and social development. Kids of all ages learn from each other, as younger students benefit from mentorship of older students, and older students gain responsibility and leadership skills that boost self-esteem and build confidence. Teachers observe each child’s unique progress within their environment, and provide direction as the child is ready. Our teachers are specially trained to identify when children progress through the Seven Sensitive Periods of growth, from infant to six years old.
Child Directed Instead of Teacher Directed
The academic experiences and classroom experience that each child receives is child directed, instead of the traditional teacher directed approach of public day care centers and public schools.
Each child gains access to specially prepared learning tools, toys and materials that encourage individualized, self-paced learning.
Teacher Consistency
Children attending our Toddler program typically spend up to two years before transitioning to our preschool. Students in our preschool through elementary programs historically have the same teacher for three years. This consistency is important during this critical time in their cognitive, social-emotional and physical development. It also maintains consistency and enables parents to collaborate with teachers regarding their child’s progress.
Our Daily Curriculum
A Critical Foundation for Child Growth & Wellbeing
Your toddler will enjoy the flow of their day with us at North End Montessori School. Our morning begins with a community meeting (our enhancement to daycare circle time or choice time), followed by individual lessons and exploratory play.
Our community meeting is a time to come together, to reinforce emerging toddler skill sets such as grace and courtesy, manners, following directives, pre-language, pre-math and pre-science.
This supportive pre-Montessori atmosphere is helpful for all of our toddler students. Participating in group activities is a great precursor to socialization.
This daily curriculum balances routine activities, flexible independent time, and group activities to form a critical foundation for your child’s growth and wellbeing.

DID YOU KNOW?
Key Facts about Child Development and Child Care
A child’s brain develops faster from birth to three years than at any other point in his or her life
There are key stages of child development during this time, called “sensitive periods”, when a child becomes deeply interested in specific subjects, including: order, movement, small objects, grace and courtesy, refinement of the senses, writing, reading, language, spatial relationships, music, and mathematics.
Dr. Maria Montessori was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize three times (1949-1951) in recognition of her child advocacy experience and humanitarian efforts.

FAQs
What is the age range for the Toddler Child Care program at North End Montessori School?
The North End Montessori School Toddler Child Care program is open to children ranging from fifteen months to 36 months.
Do you provide childcare for infants?
We do not provide childcare for infants (infant child age is birth to 12 months). However, your child is eligible beginning at 15 months old to enroll in our North End Montessori School Toddler Program. A great benefit of enrolling your child in our toddler program is we will guarantee your child’s enrollment in our Preschool and Kindergarten classroom once he or she is ready to transition.
What is the toddler teacher ratio at North End Montessori School?
The toddler teacher ratio at North End Montessori School is an optimal 6:1 student-teacher ratio.
Our typical toddler classrooms have 2 teachers to 12 students, as well as before/after care assistants.
What are some misconceptions about Montessori schools?
The common assumption is that a Montessori education is unaffordable or too expensive. North End Montessori School is priced to be accessible to most everyone. North End Montessori School’s tuition rates are reasonable, competitive, and accessible to the majority of families.
We are not a religious-based school community, nor is the Montessori method religion-based. We honor diversity in our classrooms, and maintain a school community of teachers and children of various races, ethnicities, cultures, ages, and abilities.
Another incorrect assumption is that Montessori schools cater only to children without learning challenges. In fact, during the early 1900s, Dr. Maria Montessori was appointed by the Italian Minister of Education as the Director of the “Scuola Ortofrenica”, an institution for the care and education of children considered “cognitively challenged”. Her teaching method enabled many students to achieve above-average scores on standard tests. Dr. Montessori then opened “Casa de Bambini” or “Children’s House,” for children ages three to six years in a poor neighborhood in San Lorenzo, Italy.
Casa dei Bambini offered poor children a safe haven, basic self-care, education, and adult supervision. In effect, we would consider Casa dei Bambini to be the front-runner and inspiration to all modern child care programs of today.

Creative Curriculum
The Creative Curriculum highlights the important balance between applying a general knowledge of child development with the particular knowledge a teacher gains by forming a relationship with each child and family. The Creative Curriculum for Preschool is based on five fundamental principles. They guide practice and help us understand the reasons for intentionally setting up and operating preschool programs in particular ways. These are the Principles:
Positive interactions and relationships with adults provide a critical foundation for successful learning.
Social-Emotional competence is a significant factor in school success.
Constructive, purposeful play supports essential learning.
The physical environment affects the type and quality of learning interactions.
Teacher-family partnerships promote development and learning.

History
See also: chronology of Manchester, New Gampshire Pennacook Indians is called AMOSKEAG FALRAM , which has become the heart of Manchester – Namaoskeag , which means “a good place for fishing. ” [13] In 1722 John Goffe III settled near Cohas Brook, later building a dam and sawmill at what has been called “Old Harry’s Town”. It was granted by Massachusetts in 1727 as “Thingstown” to veterans of Queen Anne’s War who served in 1703 under Captain William Ting. [14] But on the secession of New Hampshire from Massachusetts in 1741, the grant was invalidated and changed to Wilton, Maine, resulting in 1751 Governor Benning Wentworth as “Derryfield” – a name that lives in Derryfield Park, Derryfield Country Club and Derryfield School. [14]
In 1807, Samuel Blodget opened a system of canals and locks to allow ships to pass around the falls, part of a network developing to link the area to Boston. He foresaw the emergence of a great industrial center, the “Manchester of America”, in reference to Manchester, England, then at the forefront of the Industrial Revolution. [14] [15] In 1809, Benjamin Pritchard and others built a cotton mill on the west bank of the Merrimack River. Apparently following Blodgett’s suggestion, Derryfield was renamed “Manchester” in 1810, the year the mill became the Amoskeag Cotton and Wool Company. [16] It would be purchased in 1825 by Massachusetts entrepreneurs, expanded to three plants in 1826, and then incorporated in 1831 as a plant by the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company. [14] [15]
Amoskeag engineers and architects designed the company’s model city on the east bank, founded in 1838 with Elm Street as the main thoroughfare. Conversion to the city of Manchester followed in 1846 and soon became home to the largest cotton mill in the world, Mill No. 11, 900 feet (270 m) long and 103 feet (31 m) wide and containing 4,000 looms. Other products made in the community included shoes, cigars, and paper. The Amoskeag Foundry made rifles, sewing machines, textile machinery, fire engines and locomotives under a division called Amoskeag Locomotive Works (later Manchester Locomotive Works). The rapid growth of the factories required a large influx of workers, which led to an influx of immigrants, especially French Canadians. Many residents are descended from these workers. The production company Amoskeag ceased operations at 1935, although its red brick factories were refurbished for other uses. Indeed, Mill Town’s 19th century wealth left behind some of the finest Victorian commercial, municipal and residential architecture in the state. [17]

LivableMHT has drawn maps of neighborhoods and neighborhood centers of villages according to the definition of a city. [18] Recognition of specific districts varies, some of them have neighborhood associations, but none of them have any legal or political powers.
Historically, major neighborhoods include Amoskeagh, Rimmon Heights, Notre Dame/McGregorville, and Piscatacoog/Granite Square, also known as “Piscat” on the West Side; and North End, Janeville/Corey Square, Hallsville and Bakersville on the East Side; along with Youngsville and Goffs Falls on the city’s periphery. [19]
In 2007, the city launched the Neighborhood Initiatives program to “ensure that our neighborhoods are vibrant and livable, as these are the parts of the city where most residents spend their time living, playing, shopping and going to school.” [20] The goal of this initiative is to help revitalize and redevelop neighborhoods and restore a sense of community that has been neglected in the city for some time. The city began the program with streetscape and infrastructure improvements in the Rimmon Heights area of the West Side, which spurred growth and investment in and from the community. [21] Despite the success of the Rimmon Heights program, in recent years it has been unclear how the city planned to implement similar programs throughout the city. In February 2012, the city announced plans to expand the Neighborhood Initiatives program to the Hollow area. [22]

The nickname “ManchVegas” came from illegal gambling at local businesses in the late 1980s or early 1990s. Many pizzerias and local bars had video poker machines that allowed you to pay out real money. The nickname was coined after a citywide law enforcement campaign. It was then taken as a libel against the city’s limited entertainment options. The term has since become a point of pride as the city’s entertainment scene has grown. By 2003, it was fairly well known that a feature on Virtualtourist.com said, “Residents reflect regional dry humor by calling laid-back Manchester ‘ManchVegas’. ” [38] By 2005, an article in Manchester’s Behemoth (local alternative weekly) said that then-mayor Robert A. Baines was “insisting on replacing the ManchVegas moniker with Manchhattan” (meaning “Manchester + Manhattan”).

Passenger Rail
During the 1950s, numerous Boston and Maine Railroad trains ran out of Manchester Union Station, going northwest to Montreal, north to Woodsville, east to Portsmouth and south to Boston among them Alouette and Ambassador (both Boston – Montreal trains). [54] Last services were once a day train service between Boston and Concord; this service ended in 1967. [55] [56]
Return train capability with Manchester served by the “Metropolitan Corridor”, an extension of the MBTA Commuter Line from its current terminus in Lowell, Massachusetts, to Concord, which would also include a stop at Manchester Regional Airport -Boston, being studied by the New Hampshire State Railroad Authority and the New Hampshire Department of Transportation, which received federal funding for the study and route planning. [57] The Capital Corridor route is also being explored as a possible future high-speed rail link between Montreal and Boston. [58] Manchester-Nashua area – one of the 40 largest metropolitan areas in the United States where Amtrak does not serve. [59]
With the extension of Interstate 93 to eight lanes from Salem Toward Manchester under construction, space is reserved in the middle of this corridor for potential future commuter or light rail services. [60] The I-93 transit study also proposed restoring commuter and freight service to the Manchester and Lawrence branch. [61] This corridor will support freight rails along with commuter rails, which light rail cannot.

Several meetings have been held with local businesses and property owners, city officials and local developers, but the idea is in its early conceptual stages. [62]
The downtown railroad loop, if approved by the Council of Mayors and Aldermen, will be about three miles long. The loop will run from Manchester Billions south for about half a mile, then turn over Elm Street and split into two rails (the second goes to Manchester-Boston Regional Airport) and climb north to Bridge Street, ending at the Brady Sullivan Tower at the northern end of Elm Street .

The natives of Pennacook called the Amoskeag Falls on the Merrimack River – the area that became the heart of Manchester – Namaoskeag, which means “good place for fishing”. [3] In 1722, John Goff III settled near Cojas Creek, later building a dam and a sawmill there in what was then called “Old Harry’s Town”. This territory was granted by the State of Massachusetts in 1727 to the veterans of Queen Anne’s War, who served in 1703 under Captain William Ting.
In 1807, Samuel Blodget opened a canal and lock system to allow ships to pass around the falls, part of a network developing to link the area to Boston. He envisioned the emergence of a major industrial center, the “Manchester of America”, in relation to Manchester, England, then at the forefront of the industrial revolution. In 1809, Benjamin Pritchard and others built a water-powered cotton mill on the west bank of the Merrimack. Apparently following Blodgett’s suggestion, Derryfield was renamed “Manchester” in 1810, the year the mill was incorporated as the Amoskeag Cotton and Wool Company. It would be purchased in 1825 by Massachusetts entrepreneurs, expanded to three factories in 1826, and then incorporated in 1831 as the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company.
Amoskeag’s engineers and architects designed the company’s model city on the east coast, founded in 1838, with Elm Street as the main thoroughfare. Registration as a city followed Manchester in 1846, soon home to the largest cotton mill in the world, Mill No. 11, 900 feet (270 m) long and 103 feet (31 m) wide, containing 4,000 looms. Other goods produced in the community included shoes, cigars, and paper. The Amoskeaga Foundry made rifles, sewing machines, textile machinery, fire engines and locomotives in a division called Amoskeaga Locomotive Works (later Manchester Locomotive Works). The rapid growth of factories required a large influx of workers, resulting in a flood of immigrants, especially French Canadians. Many current residents are descended from these workers. In 1871, an arch dam was built on the Merrimack River to improve the water supply to the mill. K 19In 12, the production of woven fabrics at the plant reached a production speed of 50 miles (80 km) per hour.
In 1922, 17,000 workers from the city’s two largest companies (Amoskeag and Stark Manufacturing Companies) went on strike for nine months. After the strike, the textile industry began to slowly decline, with the Great Depression hitting the city particularly hard. The Amoskeag manufacturing company filed for bankruptcy in 1935. During the Great Flood 1936, the McGregor Bridge was destroyed and $2.5 million in damage was caused to the city’s factories and buildings. Following the flood, the manufacturing company Amoskeag reorganized itself as Amoskeag Industries after bankruptcy, diversifying its manufacturing operations with new industries at the plant.
Manchester’s economy benefited from the Second World War, as the city was already well located and equipped with wartime industry. At 1941 Grenier Field, located on the border of the city with Londonderry, was converted into an air base for the US Army.
In the 1950s and 60s, the city experienced a decline in production, and during this time many buildings in the factories were abandoned. As part of urban renewal projects, the city filled in the Millyard canals to make way for roads and demolished several mill structures to make way for parking and roads. The New Hampshire Mall opened in 1977, leading to further decline in downtown. However, several important buildings were built in the city center during this time, including the Brady Sullivan Tower at 1970 and Hampshire Plaza in 1972 (the tallest building in New Hampshire until 1994, later renamed Brady Sullivan Plaza).
The 1980s sparked renewed interest in the Mill Yard and the city centre. During this time, the University of New Hampshire at Manchester opened a Millyard campus, and Segway inventor Dean Kamen purchased two old mill buildings that became DEKA’s headquarters. Kamen purchased more buildings in 1984 and 1991, aiming to turn the plant into a high-tech hub for smart manufacturing and offices. John Madden, a local developer, and Kamen worked with the city on a major overhaul of the Millyard at 1980s and early 90s
City Hall Plaza was built in downtown Manchester in 1992 and is still the tallest building in New Hampshire and northern New England. In 1991, the city entered an economic downturn as federal regulators closed four major banks. Many shops and restaurants along Elm Street closed during this time as foot traffic decreased. At the turn of the century, renewed interest in the Millyard led to a boom in development and business. Several high-tech firms opened offices or moved to the Manchester plant in the 2000s, including Autodesk in 2000 and Dyn in 2004. Brady Sullivan, a local real estate developer, opened his first Millyard Apartments in 2013, helping to create a vibrant factory and downtown area for working professionals to live, work and play.
While many cities in the northeastern United States have declined in recent decades, Manchester continues to grow steadily. The wealth of the 19th century mill town left behind some of the finest Victorian commercial, municipal and residential buildings in the state.

Why science ignores children with severe autism • Autism is
Children with severe autism need help the most, yet research continues to overlook them. The new initiative puts them in the spotlight.

Introduction
This day should have been perfect. At her home in New Hampshire, Lauren Primmer hosted an annual party for families who, like her, adopted children from Ethiopia. On a warm sunny July day, about forty people gathered for a feast with hot dogs, hamburgers and homemade Ethiopian dishes. The adults sipped drinks and exchanged the latest news while the children swam in the pool and played basketball. Everything was great until the cake was served. When Primmer told her 11-year-old son Asaminy that he couldn’t eat the second bite, he threw such a tantrum that it took three adults to hold him back.
The Primmers adopted Asaminia from an Ethiopian orphanage in 2008. He was 26 months old. At that time, they already had an adopted child from the same orphanage and four biological children. Primmer says that from the very beginning, “he approached only me, and no one else. ” She later learned that this behavior could be a symptom of reactive attachment disorder. This condition is observed in some children who did not establish healthy emotional attachments with their parents or caregivers in infancy.
A year and a half later, the family adopted three more Ethiopian children, about the age of Asaminyu — and then the boy became aggressive. “When we first brought them in, Asaminyu was very brutal,” recalls Primmer. “He bit and scratched them.” For the safety of the children, the Primmers had to install bars on their bedroom doors. Shortly after he started attending kindergarten, Asaminyu started lashing out at his classmates as well. The teachers suggested that his parents examine him for autism. Doctors from the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Clinic in Manchester, New Hampshire, confirmed this diagnosis in him. In addition to episodes of aggression, they noted his obsession with lining up toy cars and flushing toilets, his habit of taking off his clothes in public, and his tendency to break rules at home or at school. Asaminyu also has intellectual disabilities and only speaks in short, simple sentences.
Because of his aggression, Asaminy was twice admitted to Spring Harbor Hospital in Westbrook, Maine, about two hours from the Primmers’ home. The first time, when he was 7 years old, he spent five weeks in a psychiatric emergency room. Since then, his relationship with his three adopted siblings has improved dramatically: “They were like the Four Musketeers,” says Primmer. But last year, when Asaminho turned 10, he returned to Spring Harbor for two months because he started lashing out at his parents and other adults, grabbing their hair and hitting them. Again, things improved for a while after that.
Then, a few months before the cake incident, Asaminyu had a three-hour tantrum. The situation escalated so much that Primmer felt the need to call 911. The paramedics were about to sedate Asaminy, but he passed out from exhaustion. Primmer links his son’s recent problems, including gastrointestinal pain. He suffers from a malfunction of the anal sphincter and, as a result, from painful constipation. “Every eight to ten months we have to go to the hospital. He gets a Botox injection to make everything more flexible and move again,” she says. “I think a lot of his behavior is caused by feeling unwell.”
Asaminyu is also well aware that while he is struggling with all these problems, his siblings are making friends and spending more and more time with them outside the home. “They grow and he doesn’t,” Primmer says. “He understands that things are changing and the situation is getting really complicated.” She is afraid that at some point he may be in Spring Harbor for the third time.
Like Asaminho, about a third of people with autism have a severe form of the disorder: they often have intellectual disabilities, they hardly or not talk at all, and they find it difficult to control their own emotions. Children with severe autism often become so unstable that they have to be hospitalized. 11% of children with autism end up in a psychiatric hospital at least once before reaching adulthood, mainly due to aggression, self-injurious behavior or severe tantrums – and the risk of being admitted to a hospital increases with age. Compared to neurotypical children, they are much more likely to require hospitalization in a psychiatric ward and are among the most difficult children for hospitals to manage.
Asaminho is fortunate to live near Spring Harbor, which has one of the few departments in the country that specializes in severe autism. Led by child psychiatrist Matthew Siegel, a multidisciplinary team of psychiatrists and therapists is trying to understand what pushes children into crisis. Specialists are working to stabilize them and bring them back home and to school. The department accepts any children from 4 to 20 years old, with intellectual disabilities, those who may be a danger to themselves or others, most often with autism. Typically, a hospital stay lasts about forty days.
Five years ago, Siegel’s group merged with five of the largest child psychiatry departments in the United States, each with about a dozen beds, to form The Autism & Development Disorders Inpatient Research Collaborative (ADDIRC). Together they help nearly 1,000 children annually. “I realized that we have a huge opportunity to study this population,” Siegel says. “This is a controlled environment, many children move between these departments, and most of them have severe symptoms of autism.”
Researchers in this group are trying to analyze aggression and self-injury in children with severe autism. They track the medications children take and their physiological changes using handheld devices. In addition, they create a more refined portrait of autism severity that takes into account how trauma, depression, anxiety, and other factors affect a child’s behavior, communication, and coping strategies. Today, there is still no consensus on how to determine the severity of autism: whether to consider that a child who has all the symptoms of autism as in the textbook plus intellectual disabilities is more severely affected by the disorder than a child with an average IQ, but who bites himself and surrounding?
According to Siegel, their goal is not only to monitor the management of patients in six hospital departments. “The highest value of this work will be to ensure that everyone from mental hospital staff to child caregivers can offer better care to children with severe autism.” Get information on how to implement this as soon as possible. According to one survey conducted in 2014, most trainee physicians in child psychiatry have very little experience with autism, seeing fewer than 15 children with the disorder each year during their two years of residency training. And when physicians turn to the literature, they find literally nuggets of information that could help them, because very few autism studies include participants with severe symptoms. When it comes to describing severe autism, “we still have a very, very long way to go,” Siegel notes.
Out of sight
Autism has long been recognized as a spectrum disorder in which behavioral patterns can range from moderately destructive to downright dangerous. At the same time, traditional studies have largely ignored children with severe symptoms, perhaps because they are unpredictable. These children may have uncontrollable tantrums, they may attack researchers, many of them find it difficult (if not impossible) to endure many hours of tests. Some of them may have sensory hypersensitivity, which makes it a real torture to conduct a neuroimaging procedure in a loud closed apparatus. And those children who do not have or almost no oral speech cannot answer even simple questions.
“Studying this group is very, very difficult,” says Logan Wink, director of the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, which is part of the collaboration. “These children are non-contact, sometimes even dangerous. And families are already living at the limit of their abilities, so it is very difficult to add to all this the need to participate in research.”
Starting in 2014, Siegel began to summarize data on how much children with severe autism were represented in studies conducted over the previous twenty years. This task turned out to be much more difficult than he expected. Not only did the definitions of severity vary from study to study, but the intelligence tests and language development assessments used were also not uniform, making meaningful comparisons extremely problematic. “The bottom line is this,” he says. – that these children are very poorly described and little included in studies.
This lack of involvement in research, in turn, was reflected in the fact that interventions for these children were not particularly actively developed, and also in the fact that awareness of interventions that do exist is extremely low, even among specialists -physicians. There are only a dozen specialty psychiatric wards for children and adolescents in the United States (one of the collaborations is Shepard Pratt in Baltimore, Maryland, which has only 14 beds per city of more than 500,000 people). Most units are designed to treat mood disorders or psychoses, which means they are best suited for young people who can recognize and talk about their emotions.
Depending on where they live, children with severe autism are sometimes placed in general psychiatric wards with mentally ill adults. “When our kids get into these departments,” Wink says. “The department’s specialists often have a poor understanding of what to treat and how.” Earlier this year, she received a phone call from a distraught resident of one of these institutions, who was caring for a young man who was being cared for by Vinck. “[The resident] said to me, ‘He sits in a quiet room, sways and makes animal noises.'” She continues, “The resident couldn’t even comprehend it all. After all, it happens that you go through all the training, even without ever encountering such extremely difficult cases.
According to Katherine Lord, who runs the Center for Autism and Brain Development at New York-Presbyterian Hospital in White Plains, New York, apart from stabilizing the child’s condition from a medical point of view, general psychiatric wards are of no use. When the children she works with end up in such a clinic, she says, it is only out of fear that they will seriously injure themselves or someone else. “We are doing everything possible to ensure that children do not get there.”
Alternatively, some collaborating institutions have established a “gradual exit program” in which they develop strategies for treating children while they are still in the hospital and also when they are discharged. Psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, occupational therapists, speech therapists and teachers synchronize their plans by tailoring medication and behavioral programs to each child’s needs. Staff encourage parents, helpers, and teachers to follow their example, learn the techniques they use, and continue this work at home and at school.
Even with all the knowledge and effort put in, the work is progressing very slowly. “You have to rejoice at even small shifts from the dead center,” Siegel says. “If we see a 30 percent reduction in self-harmful behavior, we’re really awfully happy.”
In Crisis
Earlier this year, the six collaborating departments began to quantify the factors that contribute most to bringing children into their care. The researchers compared 218 children admitted to one of their inpatient programs and 255 children with autism who had never been hospitalized but were registered as outpatients at the Rhode Island Consortium for Autism Research and treatment). Scientists have found that mood disorder is the strongest predictor of psychiatric hospitalization. Sleep problems follow. Also among the risk factors are significant impairments in social communication and adaptive behavior (everyday skills such as tying shoelaces or brushing teeth), as well as living in a family with only one parent. By screening for these factors, doctors and families can prevent behavioral crises that lead to hospitalization, according to clinical psychologist and lead researcher Julie Righi.
Two more studies published in June showed additional risks. One study reported that trauma from physical, sexual, or emotional abuse can lead to extreme irritability and anxiety in children with autism. And, just like typically developing children, children with autism who have mood or anxiety disorders are more likely to have suicidal thoughts than those who do not have these other conditions.
Such detailed profiling has already disproved a long-standing myth. In another June study, the collaboration reported that children with low verbal ability do not have an increased tendency to engage in problem behaviors (such as aggression and self-injury) compared to verbal children on the spectrum, as previously thought. The researchers compared 169minimally verbal and 177 verbal children. In both groups, they found that it was the ability to adapt or the presence of effective coping strategies that reduced the likelihood of dangerous behavior and, as a result, hospitalization. “Communication may be one way to deal with stress, but it’s not the only way,” says Carla Mazefsky, a psychologist at the University of Pittsburgh who runs the collaboration site.
Teaching children with autism communication skills and coping strategies is an important part of what Spring Harbor does. In a small department of the hospital with only twelve beds, the Spring Harbor Academy educational program operates, in which each child receives individual lessons during school hours. Children also regularly go to the grocery store, swimming pool or other places in the area. Janen Dorr, a specialist who has taught at the academy for nearly a decade, notes that the environment educators are trying to create is very different from what a public school offers.
As soon as the child arrives in Spring Harbor, Siegel’s team begins a comprehensive examination. Does the child have an undiagnosed tooth abscess or a mood disorder (such as depression or anxiety)? Is he experiencing stress at home – divorce, abuse, or maybe they are trying to evict the family because he constantly screams? Does the child have communication problems or sensory hypersensitivity? “Usually it’s not just one thing,” Siegel says. “Usually we are dealing with a combination of factors that cause behavioral problems, because of which the child is placed in our residential program.”
Every Monday and Thursday at 8:00 am, Siegel and other Spring Harbor employees gather around the conference table to discuss the children under their care. To the uninitiated, the flood of information is overwhelming—and heartbreaking.
One Thursday in early May, eleven employees gathered around a graph projection on the wall. The graph showed the frequency of episodes of aggression in a 10-year-old child who was admitted two weeks ago, when he turned from a seemingly happy boy into a child with clear signs of agitation. At first, the graph line went up sharply, showing peaks of aggression, when the boy beat the people around him, hit his head on the floor, and tore his clothes. Then, as it stabilized, the line began to go down.
This boy is a picky eater. At home, he only eats a certain brand of chicken nuggets. However, according to his occupational therapist, the night before in the hospital, he ate corrugated fries for the first time. His mother watched very carefully how the experts persuaded him to eat, remembered for the future.
The social worker shared her joy that the boy’s communication with his parents became less tense during family visits. Siegel noted that he stopped one of the boy’s psychotropic drugs (although he does not rule out the possibility of returning it if the depressive symptoms reappear). And one of the teachers in the department where children are taught said that the boy communicates well, both verbally and with the help of a gadget, and also that he began to use a new coping strategy: if he feels that he is annoyed, he walks along the corridor, to calm down instead of lashing out at people.
Staff continues the meeting and discusses a few more children. In each case, the graph showing episodes of aggression or self-injurious behavior tends to decrease during hospitalization. One psychiatrist says a teenage boy whose father is under investigation by child protection services for showing him pornography “doesn’t touch others, but exposes himself.” The teacher says that another boy stopped pinching other students, but hit himself in the face for two hours earlier, albeit lightly. The psychiatrist says the new gastrointestinal medication the boy is taking seems to be working and he sleeps better.
After the meeting, Siegel heads upstairs to the classroom, which, like everyone else, is decorated with colorful information posters. All students threw themselves into solving problems on computers, tablets or paper – except for one boy. He is 11 years old, he is slender, fair-haired, his face is covered with freckles. He is non-verbal, so he doesn’t explain why he’s pacing back and forth and trying to squeeze into the next class. Teachers and their assistants, although they wear protective pads on their hands, still try to keep them away from him. They speak to him quietly, walk along the corridor with him until he calms down. In many other establishments, employees would simply tie him up, Siegel says.
Siegel walks over to the girl who is working on the tablet and greets her. “Say hello to Dr. Siegel,” the teacher tells her. After a long pause, she does what she was asked to do, looking somewhere in the area of his shoulder. She has a swollen forehead and circles under her eyes. Walking out of the classroom into the hallway, Siegel explains that sometimes this 13-year-old only gets a few hours of sleep; on such nights she cries uncontrollably and beats her head against walls, tables and everything nearby – hence her injuries and therefore there is a helmet on the next table. Siegel suspects that, in addition to autism, she also has a mild form of bipolar disorder. In addition to exercises to develop her communication skills and coping strategies, he started giving her a small dose of mood stabilizers.
“We won’t know how effective it is until a few days later,” says Siegel (He later said that the medicine really helped.) At the same time, according to the girl’s medical history, no one had ever tried to figure out whether this or that her other behavior be caused by something else besides autism.
A complex combination
Collaboration also turns to technology: researchers hope to develop a small portable monitor to predict aggression episodes. When Siegel asks Asaminya about his feelings during an outpatient session in May, the boy replies, “I felt sad, happy, and angry.” The same is true for most children with severe autism. “They can’t say, ‘I’m tired’ or ‘This math is too hard,'” Siegel says. Even the most observant teacher may be completely unaware that a child is about to have a tantrum. But these flashes don’t happen “out of the blue,” Siegel says, “We just can’t see it.”
Last year, researchers launched a pilot project using a device called the E4 Bracelet, which tracks physiological arousal through sweat. The device, roughly the size of an Apple Watch and costing around $1,500, doesn’t have a display, but ultimately the researchers hope to develop an intuitive version, like the Fitbit fitness tracker, that will show low, medium, or high risk states of aggression or emotional breakdown. . It will flash green, amber, or red to let educators know when to intervene. These types of devices can also help children learn to understand their inner state and when to apply self-soothing strategies or seek help and communicate their situation. “It’s like the holy grail,” Siegel says.
To correlate children’s physiological state with their emotions and behavior, researchers record data at two locations. They provided 22 children at centers in Maine and Pittsburgh with portable E4 wristbands. As these children go about their usual activities in the wards, the technician follows them and codes the physiological changes with the changes in their emotions and behavior. The researchers also followed 55 other children wearing other physiological sensors while undergoing structured surveys. These surveys included tasks ranging from enjoyable (such as playing with bubbles) to frustrating (such as building a tower with an expert who conducts the survey and takes longer and longer to place his die, and sometimes removes the die altogether, instead of to add a new one). All of these sessions are videotaped, and later the researchers code the children’s reactions.
Mazefsky notes that the diagram may seem very simple, but in fact the behavior of the child is very difficult to decipher. “If a child waves his arms or snaps his fingers in front of his face, it may be because he likes something and is very excited; or it may be because he is very worried and worried. Facial expressions also do not necessarily correspond to other emotional cues: the child may smile, emitting an alarming high-pitched howl. “Because of all these layers, it’s very difficult to tell if this child has a minus 3 for an emotion, and it’s the same as a minus 3 for another child for an emotion that looks completely different,” Mazefsky says. “It took us almost nine months to get reliable results with our coding scheme.”
Preliminary data from portable monitors is encouraging, but even if the devices are effective, it could be years before clinical use begins. Analysis of data obtained from 22 children suggests that the method predicts the onset of an episode of aggression one minute before it occurs. “It may not seem like much, but in fact, a minute is a very long time to ensure the safety of others and the person himself, as well as to apply some of the strategies we already know to deal with agitation and arousal,” says Mazefsky.
A minute’s notice can make a huge difference in the life of the Primmer household. Lauren Primmer does everything in her power to keep her goat at home and at school. She brings Asaminho to Siegel every four to six months and applies all the knowledge gained during Asaminho’s stay in the hospital. For example, she says “eyes” to get his attention when he’s not looking at her. She uses visual schedules that are understandable to him. She tells him to “Seclude” – so that he understands that he needs to go to calm down away from the rest at the first manifestations of unsafe behavior. But as committed as she is to caring for Asaminho, his unpredictable outbursts are exhausting, frustrating, and leave very little time to care for the other five children who live with them in the house. The assistants Lauren has hired to work with Asaminya are helping her, but a “perfect day” without the threat of an episode of problematic behavior is still very far off. In the meantime, she and Asaminyu continue to work on just the good days, one at a time.
History of the creation and development of the passive house
“Environmental problems affect architecture at every level. Half of the energy consumption in developed countries is in buildings, and another quarter in transport. Architects cannot solve all the world’s environmental problems, but we can design buildings that require only a fraction of the energy we currently consume, and through proper urban planning, we can also influence traffic. , characteristics of the materials used in construction – all these parameters affect the amount of energy required for the construction, operation and maintenance of the building, as well as for the transport moving to and from it.”
Norman Foster
Long before the construction of the first passive house in the USA, New Hampshire, in Manchester, the first eco-house was built. It was in 1972, on the eve of the energy crisis. Architects Nicholas Isaak and Andrew C. Isaak were tasked with creating a 6-storey federal building with a total area of 16350 m 2 , with an underground two-story car park. The project of the house was a cube, this form minimized heat loss due to the brevity of the architectural solution. Glazing made up only 10% of the wall surface, and solar collectors were installed on the roof. The outer walls had a two-layer construction, and the windows had sun visors. The architecture of the building allowed maximum use of natural light, also thanks to the open layout of the interior. Tanks for storing chilled and heated water and ventilation with recuperation have been thought out.
There are now ten states in the US with virtually no energy consumption. A gallery of such houses is presented below.
The second energy-efficient EKONO-house was built in Otaniemi, Finland (1973-1979). The EKONO company has been engaged in research in the field of conservation and optimal use of energy since 1950. The experience accumulated by the company’s specialists was implemented in an innovative building project called the EKONO-house.
The peculiarity of the project is the construction of 2 sections of the building. Outwardly, they were the same, but the first section was built according to the then existing building codes and did not contain innovative energy saving solutions. In the second such solutions were used. These were research laboratories, the purpose of which was to study and compare the energy consumption of both sections. As a result, designers have a unique opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of the chosen solutions.
The space-planning solution of the building took into account the specifics of the location and climate, the shape of the roof slopes depended on the angle of incidence of sunlight at different times of the year. A special ventilation system was used: air was heated by solar radiation, the heat of which was accumulated by special double-glazed windows and blinds. Solar collectors and a geothermal plant complemented the building’s heat transfer circuit, providing even greater energy efficiency.
In both buildings, 2 systems were applied, which are still relevant today, moreover, they continue to develop successfully. The first is the use of solar energy and the second is the ability to control engineering equipment using computer technology. Moreover, the latter system has grown into a major direction in building engineering and has been called “smart buildings” or “smart home” system.
Today in Finland there are several large self-contained buildings with almost no energy consumption, such as the home for the disabled in Järvenpää and the retirement home in Lahti, with an area of more than 16,500 m 2 .
Järvenpää Disabled Home
The construction of such buildings paved the way for the creation of a new concept, which was developed in May 1988 by Dr. Wolfgang Feiss (founder of the Passivhaus Institute). ) and Prof. Bo Adamson from Lund University in Sweden.
Bo Adamson (left), Robert Hastings and Wolfgang Feist 1998
They identified a new scheme of building equipment, in which even in a climate of mid-latitudes, the consumption of electricity for heating is very small. Such houses can be passively warm, heating themselves with internal heat sources, solar energy through windows, and a slight heating of the supply air.
For the preparation and construction of the first passive house, a scientific working group was formed, funded by the Hessian Ministry of Economics and Technology. This group led eight research projects, the results of which were applied in the construction of the first passive house in Darmstadt, Kranichstein.
The authorities of Darmstadt showed great interest in the implementation of the passive house project as part of a pilot housing project. The PassiveHouse Partnership, organized by four private developers, commissioned the architects to design a house with four apartments, each 156 m 2 . For this first passive house prototype, a number of building components have been improved, previous versions of which have already been used for low-energy buildings.
The main task was to save heat, provide high-quality thermal insulation and heat recovery. As a result, the house has retained high thermal properties for 15 years. In addition, solar collectors were used to heat hot water and a ground heat exchanger to preheat fresh air.
The result of the construction was very positive and became the basis for the creation of a “low-cost passive house working group”. Thanks to her, the promotion of the concept of passive houses has become more intense. As a result, the first passive house met all expectations.
Over the years, extensive research has been carried out in this area, and the technology of the passive house has been greatly improved. In Germany, within the framework of a special state program, more than 6,000 “passive” buildings have already been erected. By 2006, more than 6,000 passive houses have been built worldwide. Most of them are in Europe. In Austria, 15% of passive houses (2010) In Europe, 20 thousand (2012) energy-saving houses. Most of them are in Germany and Austria – 17 thousand in Estonia in 2009year, a kindergarten was designed according to the principles of a passive building. In Tallinn, under the guidance of scientists from the Tallinn University of Technology, preparations are underway for the reconstruction of a 60-apartment residential building, also according to the principles of a passive house. In Vimsi, Estonia, the first sustainable apartment building is under construction.
The first energy-saving house (“Active House”) was built in Russia in the suburban village of Zapadnaya Dolina near Moscow. “Active House” (Danish project) is the most progressive energy-efficient residential building project in Russia today.
Several experimental buildings have already been built in Moscow using passive house technology (residential building in Nikulino-2). A demonstration project of such a house was also built near St. Petersburg, where the construction of the first village of passive houses has also begun.

1 Mt. Washington Railroad
Mt. Washington Railroad
The easiest way to get to the top of Mount Washington, the highest elevation of the northern Appalachians at over 6,000 feet, is on the steep Zhug Railroad, which has been carrying tourists since it opened, the first of its kind in the world, in 1869 On a clear day, the view from the top of Mount Washington covers four states; on a cloudy day, you can look down at the tops of the clouds. Those craving nostalgia for an authentic stone steam engine can book special morning steamboat departures from late May to late October. Top Sherman Adams Visitor Center houses a small museum; cafeteria; and Mount Washington Observatory , a research station that studies extreme weather conditions for which the mountain is known. In 1934, the record wind speed in the world was recorded here. From the opposite side (Pinkham Notch) of the mountain, you can hike the six and a half mile long Mount Washington Auto Road or drive a van powered from Great Glen Trails . Climbers have a choice of several trails, but should be aware of the unpredictable and unexpected changes in the weather in the mountains.

Strawbery Banke was named as the first settlement in 1623 in what is now Portsmouth. The ten-acre Strawbery Banke Museum houses four centuries of old waterfront homes. Some of them are being restored and furnished to show life in different eras, while others are preserved to show building methods and restoration techniques – of particular interest to those who restore old houses. Costume interpreters demonstrate cooking, crafts, and skills from different periods, and you can watch authentic boats in the making. Houses range from those of a prosperous merchant class and a political leader to a duplex 1950s and represent different ethnic groups, which are called the quarter. Period gardens, a 1770 tavern, a fully stocked WWII-era market, and frequent special music and history programs make this an interesting place to visit. In December, the houses and workshops are open for evening tours by candlelight.

5 Mt. Monadnock
Mt. Monadnock EaglebrookSchool / photo modified
The world’s most popular mountain owes much of its popularity to several factors: you can easily climb it in one day, its trails offer options for all abilities, and it’s an easy day trip from the Boston area. Most hikers use one of the five main routes, but the 35-mile trail network includes alternative routes for those hoping to climb alone. The mountain stands alone, and it gave its name to a geological term describing a mass of solid rock that resisted the force of moving glaciers scraping away the land that was once in it. As it stands alone, the views from its summit ledges are unobstructed, wide and beautiful, especially when the fall foliage paints the surrounding forests red and orange. This also means that the mountain is visible as a backdrop to landscapes and villages throughout New Hampshire’s southwest corner. No wonder it’s called the Monadnock region and is also known as “Currier & Ives Corner” for its idyllic villages with white church spiers and an abundance of covered bridges. Postal villages here include Fitzwilliam, Jaffrey Center, Hancock and Harrisville.
6 North Conway and Mt. Valley Ski Resorts Valley
North Conway and Mt. Ski Resorts Valley Valley
North Conway was one of the first ski resorts in America and is still a top destination for skiers. Six mountain resorts in the picturesque mountains. The Washington Valley offers state-of-the-art lifts and trails, while North Conway and Jackson are centers of a lively après-ski scene. Cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, sledding, dog sledding, sledding, and ice skating make these resorts appealing to those who eschew downhill skiing. Most of them are four-season resorts with golf, tennis, swimming and other activities.
In summer, Cranmore Mountain has an Air Adventure Park and Mountain Coaster, while Attitash Bear Peak offers alpine slides, water slides, mountain bike trails and horseback riding. Wildcat Mountain , one of the toughest for skiers, has a zipline and stunning views of Mt. Washington from its summit, where the gondola skiers take tourists in summer and autumn. On the other side of the mountain. Washington Bretton Woods , also with zipline and other year-round activities. Black Mountain is especially family-friendly, King Pine , at Purity Springs Resort in Madison season season. North Conway is as well known to shoppers as it is to skiers, with one of the largest concentrations of stores in New England, and tax-free. In the summer and fall, the Conway Railroad runs the length of the valley in vintage cars.

7 Hampton Beach
Hampton Beach
New Hampshire may have the shortest coastline of any state, but it has one of the Northeast’s favorite family beach resorts. Hampton Beach has been a popular resort town for generations, and to this day, its “casino” is the focal point of beach resorts at the turn of the 20th century. They were not built for gambling, but had a ballroom, tea rooms, and family entertainment. Today the Hampton Beach Casino gaming hall, which was built in 1899 is a live music and comedy venue on the boardwalk that lines the long white sand beach. Other events in this ever-busy city include concerts on the Seashell Stage at Hampton Beach State Park, movies on the beach, and fireworks. Amusement parks, soft ice cream and sea fishing from the harbor complete the beach experience. Every June, the beach becomes a giant art gallery when international rivals vie for the title in the Hampton Beach sand sculpture competition.

8 Fall Leaves
White Mountain, New Hampshire
New Hampshire is at its most beautiful in September and early October, when the autumn colors turn maple, scarlet and orange its birches are light yellow in color. Almost any road you follow will bring views, whether it’s a winding, tree-lined country lane or a highway that offers sweeping mountain vistas. For a variety of performances, follow Connecticut River up the west side of the state, where Routes 12, 12A, and 10 offer a changing series of views of valley farms in the Vermont Mountains. Take the side roads to the villages along the way – picture perfect Walpole is at the south end – for white church spiers and rustic greenery surrounded by flaming maples.
In the central lakes region, country roads north of scenic Squam Lake wind through the beautiful villages of Holderness, Sandwich and Tamworth, overlooking White Mountains , Route 16 leads north to one of the state’s most iconic autumn views, as the distinctive cone Mt. Chocorua is reflected in a wooded lake. Several options allow the driver to have a chance to “peep in” – cruises on Lake Winnipasaukee and Lake Sunapee , train travels to the mountains from North Conway , or various trams to the peaks in the White Mountains.
You can view the foliage in the mountains and lakes from above with a helicopter tour from Manchester or include multiple New Hampshire activities – a lake cruise, a Cannon Mountain Aerial Tramway , and traffic through the White Mountains on Kancamagus Highway – New Hampshire’s 10-day New England Fall Foliage Tour, which includes Cape Cod and the coast of Maine.
Lake Winnipasauki
Lake Winnipasauki
South of the White Mountain include Lake Winnipazauki, New Hampshire Center Lake , which also includes nearby – and much less developed – Squam Lake and Newfound Lake , Winnipesaukee is a summer activity hive surrounded by water parks, beaches, fast food, and family-oriented attractions. The west side of the lake is the most developed, especially around the kid-friendly Beaches Weirs and the trendier Meredith , while the eastern resort town of Wolfeboro is quieter. Water sports galore, with sailboats, kayaks and powerboats vying for water space with a historic cruise ship, M/S Mount Washington , Luna Center and Marcus Wildlife Sanctuary in Multonborough protects the breeding waters of these treasured birds and offers visitors the opportunity to learn about them. Nature and Wildlife is also Squam Lakes Natural Science Center , which operates nature cruises on this well-protected lake, which is at Golden Pond .

10 Kancamagus Highway
Kancamagus Highway
This is not really a highway, but a winding, two-lane NH Route 112 that climbs the spine of the White Mountains through Kankamgag Pass in New Hampshire. In addition to stunning views, this scenic 35-mile route from Conway in the east to Lincoln in the west offers access to several natural and man-made attractions. Be sure to take advantage of the scenic hauls as some of the best views are not visible from the road; this is especially true on the west side of the summit. At the Conway end are a covered bridge and two especially picturesque spots on the River Swift: Rocky Gorge and Lower Falls , both popular for swimming and picnicking. The half-mile trail leads to Sabbaday Falls , where a mountain stream flows through a 40-foot-walled gorge. Wooden railings allow you to safely look directly at the falls and potholes. The Kancamagus Highway ends in Lincoln, where Loon Mountain is not just a winter ski resort, but a year-round sports center. The gondola, which carries skiers in the winter, hosts summer and autumn visits to the summit for views, the nature trail, and the rockiness of the glacial boulders that form the caves and passages. Open all year round, this drive is especially beautiful during the fall foliage season.
11 Currier Art Museum and Zimmermann House

The over 11,000 works in Currier’s collections are as vast as they are significant. Not surprisingly, there is a special focus on the artists and works of New Hampshire White Mountain School of Artists , with several examples including Bierstadt’s view of Mount Moat. Along with the paintings are excellent examples of antique furniture made in New Hampshire. The second floor is divided between the American Gallery and an excellently varied collection of European paintings, including 9 works0003 Constable, Monet, Coro, Tiepolo, and Lorenzo de Costa . The ground floor includes a double special exhibition gallery and the collections of the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art. The former includes works by Picasso, Matisse and O’Keeffe , the latter, Calder mobile sculpture.
Also, part of the museum accessible from tours taking place here is Zimmerman House, Frank Lloyd Wright. This outstanding example of the Washina Wright houses is the only Wright-designed building in New England open to the public. The tours, which include an interior fully furnished as designed by Wright, place the home and furnishings in their historical and artistic context.
In the days of the horse and buggy, when the crew could slow down to extend the ride through their dim interiors, they were called kisses, and even today bridges were a romantic part of the New Hampshire landscape. You’ll find them scattered throughout the state, but nowhere are there more close by than in the city of Swanzey, in the southwest corner of the state. Start in Keene, following Route 10 on the left onto Matthews Road. At the end of Cresson Bridge , whose best view is from the far end, framing a red barn and maple wood. Across the bridge, turn left at the end of the road and continue south on Route 32. Left on Carlton Road leads to 1790s Carlton Bridge , one of New Hampshire’s oldest. Return to Route 32, go straight on Lane Lane Road until it ends, turning right into West Swanzey. Left on Main Street takes you to Thompson Bridge . Turn right on the other side and then exit at the end onto Route 10. Follow Westport Village Road on the left as you pass Slate Bridge , before it joins Route 10. Turn left and look for Coombs Bridge Road on the right, which will lead to 1837 Coombs Bridge . Get back onto Route 10, continue through Winchester to where Route 119 goes to the right. This leads to Ashuelot where you will find the largest of the bridges, 1864 Village Bridge .
13 Woodman Institute and Garrison House
Combining local history (Dover was the state’s first permanent settlement) with a wider range of natural science and cultural exhibits, the Woodman Institute’s private complex is a delightful surprise. The 1818 Woodman House is filled with collections of minerals, birds, shells, mammals, Native American artifacts, and Civil War items that include Abraham Lincoln’s saddle. The entire room is dedicated to the local teacher’s extensive collection of dolls; the other is memorabilia from World War II. The nearby 1813 home of Senator John Parker Hale houses furnished rooms, police and fire memorabilia, nautical items, needlework, antique toys and decorative art, and a fascinating collection of early photographs used to document New England refueling practices including child labor.
But the most precious of these is the last surviving fortified colonial garrison house, William Damm Garrison , built at Dover in 1675 and preserved here under a portico. It is fully stocked with artifacts from the period, including tools, household appliances, furniture, and handicrafts. You can check it all up close, even climbing the narrow steps to see the top floor. You can also go for a picnic on the museum’s lawns and enjoy the gardens.

Kids can ride a pumpkin coach to Cinderella’s Castle, ride wooden shoes or sails on a pirate ship, take a swan boat to spin around the lake, or “drive” their parents around the track and over covered bridges in a vintage car. They can then get dizzy in a spinning teacup and slide down from a tree or playhouse in a giant pumpkin. The charm of Story Land is not only its imaginary rides and playgrounds, but the fact that they are original and unique to this long running family operation. Smart new rides are constantly being added to attract people of all ages.

15 River River 9000 9000
River River
During the last ice age, glaciers covered the white mountains with an ice world. As they melted and retreated, the combination of meltwater and moving ice carved deep gouges into the granite and ripped apart giant boulders, dropping them across the landscape. It was the combination of these that created this natural wonder. The lost river disappears into caves formed by the fall of glacial boulders, reappearing in cascades and long waterfalls, and swirling in giant drop-shaped basins as it descends through a steep ravine. You can explore all the caves and narrow passages formed by masses of broken granite ledge, or go around them to climb the boardwalks and stairs. If you’re claustrophobic, avoid the strongest of these passages, appropriately called the “lemon squeezer. ” At the top is a garden of forest wildflowers, a forest adventure trail, and a suspension bridge that leads to a 750-foot boardwalk over an ice field of boulders.

History
0 MURS This region was once home to the Pequawket Indians, an Algonquian Abenaki tribe. Along the Saco River they fished, hunted or farmed and lived in wigwams sheltered inside stockades. In 1642 explorer Darby Field of Exeter paddled the Saco in a canoe and reported seeing “Pigwaket”, an Indian community stretching from present-day Conway to Freiburg, Maine. The Pequawket tribe shrunk the disease, probably smallpox brought from abroad. In May 1725, Dummer’s War, 36 men from Dunstable, Massachusetts led by John Lovwell clashed with the Pequawket. The losses of the Pequawket are unknown, but the result of the day’s battle was the retreat of the tribe from the area.
In 1765, Colonial Governor Benning Wentworth hired sixty-five men to found “Conway”, named after Henry Seymour Conway, Commander-in-Chief of the British Army. To keep his land, the settler had to sow 5 acres (20,000 sq. 2 ) for every fifty of his shares, and do this within five years. The first roads were built in 1766. Construction of the first meetinghouse began at Redstone. It was never completed, could only be used in the summer, and services were held whenever the minister came. Eventually, the partially completed meetinghouse was moved to the Conway Center. In 1775 the city raised small sums to build two schools, one in North Conway. By 1849there were twenty school districts in the city.
By the middle of the 19th century, artists discovered the romantic beauty of the White Mountains, and the “Artistic Waterfall” became a favorite place for landscapes. King Edward VII of the United Kingdom bought twelve paintings of the White Mountain to hang at Windsor Castle. Among the artists who worked here were Asher B. Duran and Benjamin Champney, the latter known to paint Mount Washington sitting in the middle of the main street.
Conway House c. 1910
To Portsmouth, Great Falls and Railway Conway entered Conway in 1871. the railroad was bought by Boston and Maine and joined by rival Maine Central. They moved cargo, mostly wood and wood products, away from Conway, and they brought in tourists. Numerous hotels and taverns were built in the 19th and 20th centuries and tourism remains the main business today. The first ski trail began operating in 1936 at Mount Cranmore, where Hannes Schneider from Austria had trained since the age of 1939 In 1959, the Cancamagus Highway opened, connecting Conway to Lincoln. It passes through Cancamagus Pass, named after Chief Pennacook, and at 2,850 feet (870 m) above sea level, it is the highest paved road in New Hampshire.
Since the 1930s, the population of the nearby city of Berlin has dropped significantly, from 20,018 in 1930 to 10,051 in 2010. This decline, coupled with an increase in population in Conway and surrounding areas, has resulted in a higher level of economic development in the Conway area than in the rest of northern New Hampshire. Conway has both a tourism-based economy and a service economy. As of 2002, the largest employer in the city was Memorial Hospital with 350 employees, followed by the Conway School District, Hannaford Bros. Co., Red Jacket Resorts and Walmart. [3]
Geography
According to the US Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 71.7 square miles (186 km 2 ), of which 69.4 square miles (180 km 2 ) is land and 2.2 square miles (5.7 km 2 ) water making up 3.15% of the city. [4] The Conway is drained by the Sako and Rapid rivers. The highest point in the city is the Black Cap at 2,369 feet (722 m) above sea level. Conway lies entirely within the Sako River watershed. [5]

Daily skin care
Four basic steps
Proper skin care consists of four steps: cleansing, toning, care and protection
The skin care procedure should take place twice a day: in the morning and in the evening. Other treatments will depend on the time of day and the special needs and condition of your skin.
In the morning
Evening
Cleansing and toning
On cleansing and toning
Why use cleansers and tonics?
Effective skin care starts with a thorough yet gentle cleansing and toning. This is necessary to:
remove excess dirt, sweat, sebum and makeup without overdrying the skin;
prepare the skin for treatment. When products are applied to cleansed skin, valuable ingredients are better absorbed into the skin.
Cleansing is especially important for acne-prone skin as it helps maintain a natural healthy balance and helps the skin regenerate.
How to properly cleanse and tone your skin
A thorough cleansing consists of two important steps: using a cleansing milk or gel and applying a tonic. If you use makeup, the third recommended step is to use a separate eye makeup remover.
When the skin’s barrier function is weakened, sensitivity increases, making the skin more prone to dryness and irritation.
Cleansers
Choose a cleanser that:
will be gentle on your skin without drying it out;
is designed specifically for your skin type and specific concerns;
has been extensively tested and ideally suited for sensitive skin.
The general rule of thumb for choosing between cleansing milk and gel is that the drier the skin, the more effective the milk will be for it. It does not affect your skin’s own lipids and preserves the natural balance of the skin. Gels, in turn, are ideal for cleansing normal and combination skin types.
The tonic removes cleanser residue and refreshes the skin.
Toners
Eucerin recommends alcohol-free toners for most skin types. Alcohol tonics have a cooling effect, but they can strip the skin of its natural lipids. After that, the skin may overproduce lipids in an attempt to replace those that are missing. Alcohol has the ability to increase skin dryness in people with dry skin, and for those with oily or combination skin, alcohol toners can help manage excess oil by removing sebum.
Three-in-Ones
Three-in-Ones, also known as micellar cleansers, provide cleansing, toning and eye make-up removal in one product. Fat molecules suspend their action in water and remove dirt and make-up quickly and gently. Micellar products offer a convenient alternative to using three separate products.
Eucerin DERMATOCLEAN range contains gel, milk, toner, eye makeup remover and three-in-one product. The entire line has been tested and found to be compatible with sensitive skin. Covers products for all skin types.
The Eucerin DERMOPURE range has been specially developed for acne-prone skin.
Care products should moisturize and restore the skin. Moisturizing not only increases the water content of the skin, but also protects it and regularizes exfoliation (the process by which the skin gets rid of dead cells), leaving it feeling soft, smooth and comfortable. Some skin care products are also aimed at treating specific problems.
Specific skin problems such as aging, hyperpigmentation and acne can be effectively addressed with special care products that contain a high concentration of active ingredients. These specialty products are most commonly available in concentrate or serum format.
Medications prescribed by a dermatologist for ailments such as acne or atopic dermatitis should be used in the same way as a special care product: always gently cleanse the skin before applying day or night cream. Leave the special care product on for a few minutes until completely absorbed before applying your day or night cream.
If you are using a special care product, leave it on for a few minutes until completely absorbed before applying your day or night cream. If your skin does not require a special care product, then the day or night cream should be applied directly to a thoroughly cleansed face.
Care products must be compatible with your skin type and must address specific skin concerns. Your choice of skin care product may also change according to certain seasons (for example, many people prefer to use a lighter product during warm weather and a rich cream during the cold winter months).

How to care for the skin in the morning and evening?
And how to correctly compose each of them
Elizaveta Gorbunova
Many people are still convinced that the division of skin care cosmetics into day and night is nothing more than a successful marketing ploy. In fact, the needs of our skin change in accordance with our circadian rhythms, which means that care at different times of the day should be different. What are the fundamental differences between day and night care, how to build it correctly and what ingredients to look for in cosmetics – we tell in our material.
What’s the difference?
Day and night skin care perform fundamentally different functions. Products from the morning beauty routine should provide the skin with multi-stage protection: against dryness, pollution, free radicals, ultraviolet radiation and many other unpleasant factors that we face daily. At night, the skin recovers from all the stresses suffered during the day, and most importantly, it becomes more permeable to various active ingredients (for example, acids and antioxidants that slow down the aging process). And of course, for such different purposes, it is necessary to choose the right cosmetics.
Day care
1. Cleansing. Every morning you should start with cleansing your face. This is necessary to remove excess sebum (which is actively produced at night) and the remnants of night cosmetics. The tool should be selected individually, depending on the type of skin. Experts recommend relying on soft gels and facial cleansers with soothing ingredients to prevent irritation.
2. Serum. For morning care, you should choose light serums, which at the same time can create a protective barrier on the skin surface. Look for products rich in antioxidants, fatty acids, and ceramides. These ingredients will keep your skin hydrated throughout the day, as well as protect against free radical damage and help prevent breakouts.
3. Cream for the skin around the eyes. We often forget that the skin around the eyes needs special care. It is many times thinner and more delicate than the skin on the rest of the face, creases and wrinkles appear on it faster. For a morning beauty routine, a gel roller for the skin around the eyes is ideal, choose a product with caffeine in the composition – it fights against dark circles perfectly. And if you store the remedy in the refrigerator, it will help to cope with morning puffiness (we wrote more about this here).
4. Moisturizer. Moisturizer should be applied as soon as the serum and eye cream are completely absorbed. Choose light textures with a rich composition – omega-3 and -6 fatty acids are especially effective. they create a lipid barrier and prevent the skin from losing moisture. In addition, they have an anti-aging effect and protect against free radicals.
5. SPF. The need to apply sunscreen daily (regardless of the season and weather) has been heard from everywhere for more than one year, but many continue to neglect this rule. Ultraviolet radiation has a detrimental effect on the skin and on the whole body: UV rays destroy collagen molecules, accelerate the aging process, can cause hyperpigmentation and increase the risk of melanoma. Wear SPF 50 every day and your skin will thank you.
Night care
1. Cleansing. This item is not much different from the morning one – mandatory cleansing with a product suitable for your skin type. Choose light textures that won’t irritate or leave you feeling tight.
2. Serum. Here fundamental differences with day care already appear. If in the morning your goal is to create a protective barrier, then at night your goal is to restore the skin after the day’s stress. The best “night” components are retinol, acids and acetylcholine inhibitors (stimulators of the production of the sleep hormone melatonin).
3. Serum for the skin around the eyes. If the goal of morning skin care around the eyes is to moisturize, remove puffiness and dark circles, then a night remedy should minimize the likelihood of their occurrence. In addition, it nourishes delicate skin, smoothes it and prevents the appearance of wrinkles.
4. Moisturizing cream. The biggest mistake in night care is oily heavy textures. Many are sure that this is an indicator of the effectiveness of the product and 8 hours spent with a fat cream on the face will provide the skin with smoothness and radiance. In fact, it is more likely to provoke severe puffiness, clogged pores and the appearance of acne. Remember that even the lightest creams can be rich in composition and do their job perfectly. An excellent night cream ingredient is hyaluronic acid. It will moisturize the skin from the inside, create a protective barrier and slow down aging.

Early Birds Pre-K
41778 Corte Lara, Temecula, CA 92592
Starting at $25/day
Description:
My goal is to offer your child a perfect balance of learning, play, socialization, and fine motor skill building in order to be a step ahead when entering kindergarten. Your child’s safety and self-esteem is mypriority.
Here at Early Birds we will master the skills of learning the alphabet, counting, seasons, days and months of the year and knowing how to write their full names, address and phone numbers. In this process children will exercise and build their muscles and fine motor skills using scissors, crayons, painting and sorting. They will recognize numbers and letters and begin to put letters together and recognize and spell words. We will read, listen to music and use crafts and play time to reinforce the daily lesson plans.
We will problem solve and team build together. Children will be edified in their accomplishments in this learning journey. We will work on sharing and feelings to reinforce character and social education. Through group activities children learn to follow directions, practice routines, take turns and develop friendships that are essential in kindergarten.
When children begin kindergarten with strong social and emotional skills, they are more likely to have a successful transition.
If this sounds like an atmosphere that you would like your child to be enrolled in please contact me as space is limited and fills up quickly.
Please ensure that your child is up to date with all vaccinations so there is no delay in the enrollment process.
I look forward to meeting with you and your child so that we can work together as a team to prepare for the next educational phase of their academic lives.
Respectfully,
Lynette Ramos

We are an in home day care providing care to children newborn to age 5! It is a startup made by my sister Christina and I – she is 25 and I am 20, we are both CPR and first aid certified and have years ofexperience in child care….
Description:
I am a licensed in home child care facility. The children that are enrolled here witness diversity, and they learn acceptance of each other as friends. I begin pre-school learning activities at 18mo-20mo(depending on the childs ability to communicate). For example, I have a four year old who has a year before entering kindergarden, his mother took him to enroll in pre-school, they turn him away because he was already prepared, and the school wanted children enrolled who need the help.
I make sure the children have well balanced meal at every sitting. All meals will have a fruit, a vegetable or both. The children have snacks in between meals, and they have water and 100% juice with their meals. I also make sure my parents have a date night, which is about every 3 months. This is a free night because I have a pajama party, where I invite all children enrolled in Searcy Family Child Care.
It is imperative that parents communicate with the provider, and the provider with the parent. So, not only do I speak with them on pick up about their childrens day, but I also have a time where we meet or have a cookout where we get to know each other and keep it open.
The amount of time the children are allowed to watch T.V. is minimal, because the activities involved in a day amounts to, too much to sit in front of the boob tube for 10hours. However, we do incorporate movie’s from time-to-time and even sometimes during quiet time….

All of the teachers are well qualified to teach with many years of experience in the classroom. While some teachers have a minimum of nine units in Early Childhood Studies, many of our teachers have an Associate Arts degree in Early ChildDevelopment. The Director of Curriculum has a Bachelors Degree and over twenty years experience being a part of the Kid’s World and Van Avery Prep administration.

The two and three year old children nap regularly. The students that take a nap, rest from 12:00 to 2:00 daily. If your student is four or five, it is the option of the parents. A napping room is available to all.
Are meals and snacks provided?
A morning snack and an afternoon snack is provided daily. Lunch is provided on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Is potty training required?
It is not required that your child be potty trained. We will assist with the process of training. All students are required to have a change of clothes in their backpack.
How is discipline handled?
At Kid’s World we take a positive approach towards helping students make good choices. First and foremost the overall tone between student and teacher is one of respect. Teachers make clear what the expectations are so children clearly understand what they can and cannot do. If a conflict should arise we use it as a teachable moment to talk things out with the child. Sometimes positive redirection will be recommended or a time to cool down and refocus.
What learning style is offered at Kid’s World?
Kid’s World offers a combination of a developmentally and academic based program.
Can I stop by anytime to see my child?
Absolutely! We have an open door policy and parents are welcome at any time.

Will my child be safe?
We take the safety and security of your child very serious and do all that we can to ensure a safe and secure learning environment. In doing so we have low teacher to student ratios so we can properly supervise the children both indoors and outdoors. All students must be signed in by a parent upon drop-off and must be signed-out by a parent at pick-up. Students are only released to their parents and/or someone authorized to pick up your child. Safety drills are practiced monthly.
Do the children wear uniforms?
No, the children do not wear uniforms at Kid’s World. They do however wear uniforms at our elementary school next door, Van Avery Prep.

Our schools pride themselves in providing a quality education. It is our mission to guide children in developing their full potential in an environment that is committed to preserving the legacy of Dr. Maria Montessori. We provide a variety of developmentally appropriate learning activities in a stimulating, safe and nurturing environment.
Our staff works together to teach children the importance of these values; honesty, cooperation and respect are just a few that are taught throughout the year. Our primary goal is to help children reach their full potential by encouraging curiosity and creativity. Under the supervision of a trained educator, the child chooses what helps him/her to become a person with a love for learning, resulting in independence, confidence and growth.
Traditional Montessori – with a modern approach
We believe that the children learn through a carefully prepared environment where they are able to grow their own natural talents. All subject areas are blended together to compose an extraordinary educational experience where children work freely in a structured environment. Within this framework the children progress at their own pace and rhythm according to their own capabilities.
At Montessori, we aim for every child to have the opportunity to:
Explore their own curiosity and creativity
Discover vital cognitive skills, supported by our innovative staff
Attain educational success to create a brilliant future
Utilize play to create learning opportunities

Ashanti Chemolli
“Our children, Adam & Chloie (boy/girl twins) have been attending the Temecula Montessori since they were 2 years old (now 5 and about to start Kindergarten). Between the two of them, they have participated in every classroom with every teacher at the school over the last 3 years. We have been so happy not only with the school’s Montessori program and our children’s academic progress, but more importantly with the teachers and staff that have given our children such wonderful love and attention. Whenever I pick them, my kids make a stop at every teacher there as we are leaving to get/give hugs. Not only would I highly recommend this facility to everyone, I would highly encourage them to give it a try. The Montessori method of teaching is amazing and it works to the benefit of every child – that is the beauty of it. I am grateful that our children are blessed to be part of such a wonderful school as Temecula Montessori.”
Megan Reyes
“Temecula Montessori is wonderful! My daughter has been going here for the past 3 years and loves it. The teachers are so sweet and patient. It is also individualized so my daughter is continually challenged”
Gabrielle Reyes
“I have 3 wonderful girls that have attended Temecula Montessori Academy. My youngest is still currently attending and will be starting the Kindergarten program this fall. When my two older girls left the program they had excelled in all areas of the public school curriculum. If you are looking for a program that exceeds in academics and has a staff of loving and nurturing teachers, then TMA is the place for you!! ”
Sarah and Joseph Woodbury
“As a parent I would highly recommend Temecula Montessori. The Montessori way of learning not only focuses on good academic skills but also teaches the important lessons about the world we live in, how to respect each other, and how to act outside of school. Knowing that my child is safe, having fun with good people and learning is one of my highest priorities. Temecula Montessori will make a profound, extensive and positive impact in the life of your child and your family. It is a very warm and loving environment. Both my boys enjoy going to school, and love their teachers. I know this school has made a major impact on the start of my boys education. Thank you to all Montessori teachers for the care and dedication you give to all your students!”
Courtney Qually
“Montessori has been such a wonderful blessing in our lives. My daughter has been going here since she was 12 weeks old and I have loved every day she’s been here. She is always happy & excited when we arrive and is so eager to show me her new skills learned at school. As a full time working family, I’m so grateful to the teachers and staff for their kindness and hard work nurturing my little girls development. I know they play a huge roll in the amazing and smart little one she has become. Thank you Montessori!”

In 1797, Father Juan Norberto de Santiago and Captain Pedro Lizalde, along with seven soldiers and five Indian guides, reached the Temecula Valley. The group was looking for a place to establish another mission. It was then that the holy father made an entry in his diary about the discovery of “an Indian village called Temecula” [14] . In 1845, the last governor of Upper California, Pio Pico [en] , granted a certain Pablo Apis Rancho Little Temecula [en] an area of just over 9 km² [15] [16] . On April 22, 1859, the first post office opened in Temecula, in a store building – it became the second post office in the state, second only to San Francisco. In 1882, the Pechanga Indian Reservation was established with an area of about 16 km², about 13 km from the town.
In 1904, the Temecula Ranch, Little Temecula, and several neighboring ranches were bought by one Walter L. Vile. In 1906, he died in an accident in Los Angeles, but his son, Malon, who, together with other patrons, founded and opened the First Temecula National Bank in 1914, continued his business. In 1910, the Catholic parish of Saints Catherine and Alexandria was founded in Temecula, and in 1917 a chapel appeared. Due to the growth in the number of parishioners, the church soon moved to another place, and this chapel was sold to the Old City Museum for one dollar [17] . In 1915, the first paved two-lane road appeared in the town. By 1947 Malon Vile’s holdings were about 354 km², centered on Temecula. In 1948, a dam was erected that blocked the Temecula Creek [en] and created the Vile Lake Reservoir [en] (area about 4.5 km², volume 42–63 million m³), which solved the problem of water shortage in Temecula [18] . In 1964, the Vayle Ranch was sold to Kaiser Aetna partnership [19] . The property was soon expanded to 395 km² and named Rancho California . In the early 1980s, the I-15 freeway was built through Temecula, which led to a sharp increase in population: in a decade, the population of the town increased more than 15 times, from 1.8 to 27.1 thousand people.
In 1989, the first church of non-denominational Christianity appeared in Temecula [en] [20] .

We base comfort level on dew point, as it determines whether sweat will evaporate from the skin, cooling the body. A lower dew point makes you feel more dry, while a higher dew point makes you feel more humid. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between day and night, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while temperatures may drop at night, a wet day usually gives way to a wet night.
The perceived humidity level in Temecula, measured as the percentage of time during which the level of humidity comfort is characterized as damp , stuffy or heavy , does not change significantly throughout the year, remaining within 1% of 1 all the time %.

This report describes typical weather in Temecula based on a statistical analysis of historical hourly weather reports and model reconstructions from January 1, 1980 to December 31, 2016.
Temperature and dew point
There are 5 weather stations close enough to help us estimate the temperature and dew point in Temecula.
For each station, the data are corrected for the difference in altitude between the station and Temecula according to the International Standard Atmosphere, as well as for the relative change in MERRA-2 satellite-era reanalysis between these two points.
The estimated value for Temecula is calculated as a weighted average of the individual data from each station, with weights proportional to the reciprocal of the distance between Temecula and the given station.
Stations participating in the reconstruction:
Oceanside, Camp Pendleton, Marine Corps Air Station (KNFG, 30%, 29 km, southwest, Altitude -286 m)
March Air Reserve Base (KRIV, 23%, 46 km, north, Altitude 160 m)
Ramona Airport (KRNM, 18%, 55 km, southeast, 116 m altitude)
El Toro Mcas (KNZJ, 16%, 58 km, west, Altitude -192 m)
Palm Springs International Airport (KPSP, 13%, 70 km, northeast, Altitude -184 m)
To see how these sources agree with each other, you can compare Temecula and the stations that participate in our estimates of temperature and climate history. Note that the data from each source has been adjusted for elevation and relative variation present in the MERRA-2 data.
Other data
All data related to the position of the Sun (such as sunrise and sunset) are calculated using astronomical formulas from Jean Mius’ Astronomical Algorithms, 2nd Ed. .
All other weather data, including cloudiness, precipitation, wind speed and direction, and solar energy flux, are taken from the MERRA-2 New Time Retrospective Analysis. This reanalysis combines various measurements over a wide area in a modern global meteorological model to reconstruct hourly weather history around the world on a 50 km grid.
Land use data are from the SHARE Global Land Cover Monitoring Network database published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
Altitude data is from the Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM), published by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
The names, locations and time zones of places and some airports are from the GeoNames Geographical Database.

The information on this site is provided as is, without any guarantee of its accuracy or suitability for any purpose. The weather data may contain errors, glitches and other defects. We are not responsible for any decisions made on the basis of the information provided on this website.
We pay special attention to the fact that for a number of important data types we rely on reconstructions based on the MERRA-2 model. With huge advantages in temporal and spatial completeness, these reconstructions: (1) are based on computer models that may have typical model errors, (2) use coarse sampling on a 50 km grid and therefore cannot reconstruct local variations in many microclimates, and (3) experiencing particular weather difficulties in some coastal areas, especially on smaller islands.
We also caution that our travel points are only as accurate as the data on which they are based, that the weather conditions in any particular place and at any time are unpredictable and changeable, and that points calculation reflects a certain set of preferences that may not coincide with preferences of the individual reader.
How To Figure Out Precisely What You Want as a Career
Use the following steps to learn how to find out what career you want:
1. Use several self-assessment tools
The first step in figuring out what you want as a career is assessing your values, personality, skills, and interests. These characteristics will invariably impact whether or not you’re likely to enjoy a particular occupation and be successful at it. Self-assessment comes in many forms, such as:
Take a skills assessment. Knowing what your abilities are is essential to choosing a career because each profession requires a specific skill set comprising both soft skills and hard skills. Soft skills are aptitudes you acquire naturally, and hard skills are ones you gain through study or training.
Make separate lists for your hard and soft skills. You’re likely to have abilities you don’t know about, so use the results from your skills assessment to make two separate lists: one for soft skills and one for hard skills. For example, empathy is a soft skill, so it should be included with your other soft skills. In contrast, being able type 50 words per minute is a hard skill, which belongs in a separate list. If you’re not sure what your skills are, ask a friend or a mentor for their feedback on the activities you can do effectively.
Take an interests quiz. Your interests, such as writing or watching movies, can influence your job performance because you’re likely to perform better if your duties interest you. Therefore, it’s important to figure out what your interests truly are. Assess your interests with a tool such as Strong Interest Inventory (SII). Another great option is the O*NET Interests Profiler, which is administered by the U.S. Department of Labor. This tool uses information about your interests, which you provide by answering questions, to identify your interests and provide career suggestions that suit each interest.
Take a personality assessment. Your personality, which includes your unique preferences, can have a major impact on whether or not you like a job. Use a personality assessment method such as Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) to learn about yourself.
Take a values test. A profession that fits your values is essential to be happy and engaged at work, so knowing what your values are can help you to choose the right career. For example, if you value having a prestigious job and earning a high salary, you’re unlikely to be happy in a low income, low profile occupation. You can use a tool such as the Survey of Interpersonal Values (SIV) to get the information you need to identify your values.

2. Review your work history
If you have been employed before, either full time or part time, ask yourself the following questions to help identify any lessons you may have learned:
What did I like most in each of my previous jobs?
What was my best employment experience, and why was it great?
What were my favorite features of the organization?
What did I dislike most about the organization?
What did I like or dislike about my previous supervisors?
Among my previous supervisors, what did I like most about my favorite one?
What is the biggest challenge I have faced in my employment history?
Among the individuals I have worked with, which of their qualities did I value most?
Based on your findings, make a list of your preferences in relation to job duties, work settings, companies, bosses, and co-workers. Learn more: How to Choose a Career Path
3. Research different careers
Use the information you have learned about yourself during the self-assessment stage to research various careers. You can use the following methods to get the information you need about specific career paths:
Ask friends in your social network. Your peers are likely to know about some career options you may not know about. You may also have friends who have work experience in a career that could work for you. Use your social network, and ask for other people’s opinions.
Ask a career professional. Career counselors are professionals who have the skills to match you to a suitable career. Talk to one of these professionals and get some professional advice. Before you schedule that appointment, ensure that your counselor has a state license and is a member of the National Career Development Association (NCDA) to avoid getting bad advice.
Use social media. Leverage the reach of social media platforms to research different careers. Read information on profession-based Facebook groups; read Twitter chats on different professions; and use LinkedIn to access job descriptions, interviews, and articles.
Attend professional events. Most industries host workshops and conferences. Try to attend a few that relate to different careers that interest you.
Gain new knowledge. You can explore possible professions while equipping yourself with the necessary hard skills for working in them by using platforms such as Coursera, which offers free programs in several areas such as math, computer science, and personal development. Additionally, you can boost your knowledge of specific career paths by reading books, watching relevant YouTube videos, and trying new hobbies that could lead to a rewarding career.
Based on your research, make a list of five careers that appeal to you.
4. Consider the necessary preparation
While some careers may need only minimal education or training, others may need extensive preparation. You need to know if a profession is achievable for you in terms of cost of education and training, difficulty of the education and training, and length of time it takes to become qualified. You can use the O*NET Interests Profiler to determine the logistics of each career option recommended by the assessment tool. If there is an option on your list that has not been recommended by O*NET, research it separately. Once you understand the preparation required, narrow your list down to three careers that are both interesting and achievable. You can use the following checklist of questions to compete this step:
What education do you need for the career?
Can you meet the cost of the education or training?
What professional certifications do you need for the career?
Are there any student aid programs that can help you to pay for the educational requirements?
Are the education requirements achievable in terms of time and effort?
Can you gain the necessary academic or professional credentials while you work?
What are the hard skills you need to develop for the career?
Do you have the soft skills you need for this career?
What programs can help you can gain the necessary hard skills?
What industry experience can you gain in the near future to give yourself a head start?
Is the career worth the effort of preparing for it?
Based on what you learn, narrow your career path options to three for further exploration. Learn more: Fast Learner Skills: Definition and Examples
5. Experience your favorite careers
Here are some methods you can use to get some hands-on experience in the career of your choice:
Job shadowing: This technique involves observing a senior worker performing their job duties for as little as a day or as long as a few weeks. Job shadowing can help you to learn about the job, build valuable contacts in a particular career path, and gain valuable skills.
Informational interviews: This method involves contacting a successful senior professional in the career of your choice, requesting the opportunity to benefit from their industry expertise, scheduling a meeting, and learning about their career path thus far. It’s also a great way to build industry contacts.
Internship: By completing an internship, you can gain a first-hand understanding about a particular career. An internship is likely to be more comprehensive than job shadowing and informational interviews. It can also help you gain work experience that you can list on your resume, which can improve your chances of being hired in the future.
Volunteering: You can volunteer in your preferred career path during your free time to gain on-the-job experience and skills that can improve your resume and employability.
6. Select the best career option
You’re likely to excel in a job that aligns with your values, interests, abilities, and personality, so use what you have learned in the previous steps to choose the career path that seems most likely to suit you.
7. Review your choice once every three years
Once you have begun your chosen career, evaluate your decision once every three years to make sure you’re still on the path you desire. Your aspirations, skills, personality, and interests can change over time, and you shouldn’t be afraid to adjust your plans to meet those changes. If necessary, use this process again to find a new career. If you’ve been wondering how to figure out what kind of job you want, you should now have all you need to start narrowing down your options. Use the information we’ve laid out here to get on the path to finding your ideal career.
What Career is Right For Me? How to Find Your Dream Job

By Kelli Smith
Do you remember being 18 and worrying that you didn’t have an answer (or even an idea) when people asked you what you were going to do for your first job, let alone an ideal career? That’s totally normal — most of us don’t just decide on a dream career right out of high school or settle on a field in college and stick with it for life.
You can’t exactly just Google “find dream job” or “what career is right for me?” and get a customized answer (yet). So how do you find your dream job when you don’t know what you want to do?
The TL;DR is that you look at your strengths, think about who you are, talk to people, educate yourself, consider your needs, and do what makes you happy at the end of the day. According to a recent survey by Gallup, 60% of millennials alone are looking to switch jobs. So, it’s not unusual at all to be thinking “I don’t know what career I want” or even “I need a career change but don’t know what to do.”
Knowing that career change is possible (and probably even inevitable) is one thing. But, when you’re ready for a change, how do you know what profession or career path is right for you? It’s so easy to become complacent in a job or career you’re not really happy with and miss out on a dream job without even realizing it.
So, how can you keep from getting stuck in a career dead-end? And, with all the opportunities out there, how can you know what long-term career path is right for you? How can you get closer to answering, “What career is right for me?”
This article (updated from the original written by Elana Gross) shares six tips for how to figure out what job you want, what you want to do, find a career you love, and overcome the obstacles of indecision and not knowing what you want.

1.
LEAD WITH YOUR STRENGTHS
Just because you don’t know what career you want doesn’t mean you don’t know what you’re good at. A great way to focus on your skills is to make a list of your strengths. If that doesn’t come naturally to you, ask a friend or trusted co-worker their opinion. Or check out a self-analysis resource like the Myers-Briggs personality test.
Taking an active look at what you’re good at and what makes you tick personality-wise is a powerful way of assessing a career path that will fit and complement those strengths.
Of course you can be good at anything if you try hard enough or put in enough time. But you can save a lot of time and avoid frustration if you let your strengths lead you to what you should be doing instead of forcing yourself into a career that doesn’t really fit.
For example, you might have convinced yourself (or let others convince you) that you’re not a math person, only to find out that you love using logic to solve problems.
In that case, you might actually have a passion for something like web development that you might have written off beforehand. It’s easy to let preconceived ideas stop you from a successful tech career, but, if you take some time to look at your strengths, you’ll probably be pleasantly surprised by what they tell you.

2. EVALUATE YOUR PAST TO AVOID A DEAD END
To help you clarify your feelings about previous jobs, so you can look for similar or different characteristics in the future, answer the following questions about each place you’ve worked:
What did I like most and least about the company?
What did I like most and least about the industry culture?
What did I like most and least about my boss?
What did I like most and least about the people I worked with?
What was the most challenging thing about working there?
When was I the happiest or the proudest?
What was my biggest accomplishment?
What did I like most and least about my responsibilities?
Evaluating your past can also help you recall pivotal moments you might have overlooked that would have made it clear you weren’t happy with your work. If looking back starts to uncover negative patterns around a certain kind of job or career, that’s a way to recognize that it’s time to move on.
You may very well be missing out on opportunities elsewhere that would be a much better fit with your needs and abilities. Analyzing your past is a key component to discovering the kinds of situations that will bring out your best work and happiest self.

3. TALK TO PEOPLE TO LEARN WHAT YOUR DREAM JOB IS
Start taking some time in your job search to request and schedule informational interviews with people in the fields you’re interested in to learn about their career paths and get career advice. Ask about their job, their professional past and aspirations, and the industry.
Just be sure to prepare with questions in advance so that you get the most out of these meetings or calls and, besides the no-brainer “thank you” afterward, do all you can to find a way to repay the favor.
And don’t limit yourself to people you know or have connections with. Network at conferences and workshops.
Join Twitter chats, other social media platforms, or Facebook groups. Go on LinkedIn and read people’s job descriptions or read interviews and articles about people in jobs you admire. For instance, if you’re curious about what a day in the life of a WordPress developer looks like, do a quick Google search and you’ll likely be able to find plenty of info (including a podcast or two) and people to reach out to.
Before you set your heart on a right career — or completely rule something out — make sure you get a sense of what the job is like day-to-day.

TAKE CLASSES FIRST, FIGURE OUT YOUR NEW CAREER LATER
Try something new whenever the opportunity presents itself. Take online classes, attend workshops, read books, and watch YouTube tutorials. By taking these chances, you may find out that you’re really into UX design, digital marketing, Python programming — or something else entirely!
The point is that nowadays there are so many options for learning new skills and, by taking advantage of them, you have a fantastic opportunity to find a passion that gives you more flexibility in terms of career choices, helps you get a job, or that you can turn into a new career.
And, if nothing else, you’ll have a new skill you can use at your current job (and maybe even get paid more for!) or a new hobby that you can turn into a side gig.
(Back to top.)
5. CONSIDER WHAT WORK ENVIRONMENT YOU NEED
Are people in the workplace you’re considering competitive with one another or collaborative? Are they friends outside of the office? Do they work as a team or on their own? Can people work remotely or are they expected to work in the office? What is the work-life balance like? What are the salary expectations?
These are all important questions for potential workplaces and employers when you’re searching for that dream job to explore different career options or to change careers altogether.
It’s also good (and easy) to do some initial research on your own — both about industries in general and employers in particular — using some Google searches and job boards to see what a typical job offer looks like from job postings in your desired field.
If you know you work best as part of a team, then it’s important to find a company that prioritizes a collaborative approach. If you’re more productive working alone or you don’t like the full-time grind, then you might be better served by freelance or contract work that allows you to manage yourself and set your own terms.
The same thing goes for scheduling and flexibility concerns. If you thrive in a structured environment and prefer reporting directly to a manager for guidance, then you might look for a traditional, 9-5 job in an office environment.
But if you prefer the freedom of working from home or on the road as a digital nomad, and you’re more comfortable being your own boss or supervisor, then looking at remote careers will be key to your career happiness.
If you aren’t sure where you stand with these things, you can always try taking up work on the side to help you figure it out. For example, if you work in a hierarchical environment now, try doing some solo freelancing gigs and see if you notice a difference in how you feel.
The same thing goes if you normally spend your workdays by yourself — try making some peer connections instead or work on a collaborative side project to test if teamwork might be more your thing.
(Back to top.)
6. DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY (EVEN IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS FOR YOUR CAREER YET)
Two critical questions to consider when it comes to your career are:
What do you love doing so much that you’d be willing to do it for free?
Think about it: If you love something so much that you’d do it without being paid, wouldn’t getting paid for it be the definition of a dream job?
Try to picture what that “job you’d do for free” is and then start connecting it to paid possibilities in the same field.
What would make you the happiest (i.e., NOT what would make you the most money)? If you were to Google “find dream job,” what answer would you want to appear?
While we all need to pay the bills and, hopefully, still have money left over for a comfortable life, you shouldn’t necessarily choose the most prestigious job just so you can impress people at cocktail parties.
Instead, for greater long-term happiness, choose a profession that will make you the happiest and allow you to grow and learn.
So, think about what truly interests you, not what necessarily sounds the most lucrative or high-powered on paper.
Try to pin down those things that engage you in such a way that you’re always able to muster at least a spark of passion about them and use those interests to guide you toward an applicable career path.
Finding a dream job should never mean compromising what you stand for or what you want out of your work life, and the good news is, it doesn’t have to.
By following the tips above you can develop a clear sense of what makes you tick career-wise so you’ll be able to find job opportunities and a career path that genuinely fits your wants and needs.
You may think you don’t know what you want, but with a little reflection and determination you’ll soon realize that it’s actually right within reach.

Actuary Careers | The Princeton Review
Majors
Grad Programs
Careers
An actuary assembles and analyzes facts and estimates risks and returns to make financial planning decisions in a specific area of expertise. As an actuary, you’ll spend a lot of time working with numbers. You’ll also spend up to 65 percent of your time working with people, establishing goals, reviewing work, and researching figures. “It’s a real learning experience at first-not at all like school,” one actuary wrote, referring to the interpersonal and communication skills that were required in her job.
A significant portion of the aspiring actuary’s time is spent studying for the multifaceted, information-specific exams that every actuary must pass. Initial examinations test basic mathematical skills, such as probability, calculus, and linear algebra, and are used as “litmus tests” to eliminate those unsuited to the actuarial life. Surprisingly, we found little mention of the long hours spent outside of work studying for the exams and the lack of a social life this hard study encourages. Actuaries seem to enjoy the constant education the profession requires, regardless of the personal cost. These exams provide good indicators of progress as an actuary; full passage of the exams take between five and ten years.
How to Become an Actuarist
Becoming an actuary requires some of the skills of a gambler and some of the skills of a marathoner. You need a gambler’s understanding of statistics, probability, and risk analysis. Most actuaries graduate college with a degree in mathematics or a business-related field, although the industry trend of late is to hire more liberal arts students who can demonstrate a high mathematical aptitude. The endurance of a marathoner is required not for the hours, which are fairly acceptable, but to make it through the actuarial examinations, which can take as long as ten years to pass. These tests are administered biannually by three associations: The Society of Actuaries, the Casualty Actuarial Society (for casualty actuaries), and the American Society of Pension Actuaries. While each agency provides certification for a certain specialization, the first few tests are general enough that they may be taken without regard to any specific career path.
Present and Future Outlook for Actuarial Careers
With the rise of the science of probability, described mathematically by Blase Pascal and Pierre de Fermat, came the ability to create probability tables for any given event-death, accidents, even loan defaults. In 1792, the Equitable Society of London (an insurer) decided to use these tables to determine their premiums, and thus was born the role of the actuary. Edmund Halley-after whom Halley’s Comet is named-developed the first table of mortality, thereby giving birth to the life insurance industry.
The need for actuaries should rise over the next decade as insurance companies, pension plans, and large corporations recognize the need for accurate statistical analysis and cash-flow management. Computer skills are crucial at the cutting edge of actuarial development, particularly in the field of liability analysis. Another emerging field is actuarial health care science; with unpredictable changes in medical technology and the emergence of epidemic viral strains, life expectancy is becoming more difficult to predict and more variable-dependent. Some actuaries believe these probablilities are describable and are working with complicated mathematics to find a way to explain them.
Quality of Life
PRESENT AND FUTURE
In the beginning, actuaries, referred to by professional societies as “associates,” are rotated among different jobs within the company to learn the variety of processes that an insurance or pension company follows. Entry-level actuaries spend much of their time researching and preparing data. Many people enjoy the lack of professional responsibility these early years offer, mainly because it allows plenty of free time to study for the exams that mark the first few years. Attrition is low; satisfaction is average.
FIVE YEARS OUT
“Fast-trackers” diverge from others at this point, and those who have trouble with the exams or find producing analyses on other people’s demands unsatisfying leave (18Ð22 percent). Salaries rise, and some attain the professional title of “fellow.” Hours increase and specialization becomes critical-those who leave the profession beyond this point do so primarily because of a dissatisfaction with their area of specialization. Job performance is the distinguishing characteristic during these years; actuaries tend to view their jobs and colleagues as “very competitive.”
TEN YEARS OUT
Actuaries who have had success start their own actuarial consulting firms. Many leave the pure actuarial side and enter management and corporate strategy development. Some continue up the actuarial ladder, moving to “chief” or “head” of actuarial science. Others are recruited by the government or independent research panels for their statistical skill and their experience in a specific area of expertise.

Geneticist Careers | The Princeton Review
Majors
Grad Programs
Careers
Geneticists are the leaders of the last frontier of biology. They involved in unlocking the last few secrets of life. Unlike other physical scientists who are able to work in the environment they are studying the geneticist typically calls the laboratory home. There they are expected to juggle a number of abstract problems as they put together the puzzles of DNA and heredity. Long hours are typical, but many geneticists don’t look at it is punishment, but a perk. They are closely tied to their work, and can spend years answering only one question about the genome. It is this dedication that classifies most in the profession. Genetics has application in several fields and more can be expected as technology catches up with research. The major fields for geneticists are in medicine, agriculture and crime. Geneticists work at pharmaceutical companies to uncover the origins of disease, birth defects and the like, and then in turn develop ways to prevent or treat them. Geneticists that work in this field are involved in their work from beginning to end, although this could sometimes mean a lifetime of work, literally. Since there are more mouths to feed in the world it is important that the supply meets the demand. Therefore, geneticists in agricultural research develop crops that can grow in atypical conditions, or to abnormal sizes. Scientists now have a better understanding of DNA, and with this they can apply their knowledge to solving crimes. Geneticists have the opportunity to be laboratory detectives and use DNA sampling to insure that the right person is convicted of the crime. With medicine, agriculture and crime the three biggest draws of the profession most geneticists then find employment either in universities, the government or major pharmaceutical companies. These three employers are closely related though in how they use research, so geneticists expect to make many contacts within the industry. Aside from the employer and the field of study there are two types of geneticists: Laboratory Geneticist – This is the field that most geneticists choose to enter. Being a lab geneticist involves application of genetic technologies. Genetic Counselor – Being a genetic counselor means working in the role of a nurse or consultant. They work directly with parents that could be at risk for children with birth defects. It is also common to for counselors to consult with insurance and health care companies about new medical technologies and conditions.
Paying Your Dues
Extensive study in the physical sciences is expected. A Bachelor of Science either in biology or chemistry is preferred, although any physical science will do as long as it is complemented with a minor in biology. There are few to no positions available with only a B.S. These jobs are typically lab assistant positions with little room for career expansion. A master’s in genetics helps, but to have authority in research and development a Ph.D. or M.D. is required. Four to six years of school after completion of an undergraduate degree is the norm. The first two years are spent taking advanced science classes, and the remainder is focused on a personal research project. Most research projects are done with grants from the university, the government or private pharmaceutical companies. This project is meant to be your resume and will likely be a major factor in a company’s decision to hire you or not. Once out of school entry level positions are typically as a lab or research assistant, although the more advanced the degree the faster one will move through the ranks to direct and develop methods and technologies.
Online Nursing Master’s programs have advantages over on-campus. Find the best programs here.
Present and Future
Genetics is the scientific study of the mechanism of heredity. The first geneticist was Gregor Mendel who in 1856 presented statistical laws that showed a transmission of certain traits from parent to child. However, Mendel’s work was nothing more than a hypothesis until advanced science techniques proved his work with the discovery of the chromosome and the gene in the 20th century. From this scientists, who were biologists and chemists at the time, found the basis of inherited characteristics, and created the science of genetics. The field has since exploded with information as major steps in technology have allowed for more scrutiny in the study of DNA and heredity. The future is very bright, because the field is expected to expand at a rate of 30% over the next ten years. With the completion of the Human Genome Project many geneticists will be in the vanguard of developing new medical technologies that will forever alter the way we look at the origin of life.
Quality of Life
PRESENT AND FUTURE
The days are long, and the tasks redundant, but enjoyment is typically high. Young geneticists are learning the ropes of laboratory research, but they aren’t in charge of their own research.
FIVE YEARS OUT
Geneticists live at the lab, but the work becomes more expansive after five years. They are able to take on individual research projects, as well as work in development. How far one will go in the industry is usually decided around this time, as he/she is expected to introduce new theories and aid in the discovery of new medicines or technologies.
TEN YEARS OUT
Somehow the days manage to get longer, but again geneticists are still satisfied with their work. If one has survived in the lab for ten years he/she is directing research projects, lecturing at universities, and consulting with pharmaceutical companies. This is when your work starts to take shape, which could result in a major medical breakthrough. Respect in the industry for its senior members is very high, which allows you to take risks with hypotheses that a junior member can’t.

A Surefire Plan to Figure Out What You Really Want
Image Courtesy of Pakorn at FreeDigitalPhotos.net
From the feedback I receive from my Forbes, Huffington Post and AARP posts, I hear one type of comment over and over again, more than any other, and it goes something like this: “I just don’t know what I want. Despite all my efforts, I can’t figure out what I want to do.”
I find this fascinating – that so many Americans have lost touch with who and what they want to be professionally. I know – we like to blame the economy and our money problems for our unhappiness, but that’s not the root cause of this career malaise. There are other reasons for feeling disconnected from what you do for a living. Who would have believed that there could be millions of people working in jobs and careers they hate, not able to figure out how they want to be of service in the world?
Don’t get me wrong – I’m not judging anyone here, because this was me 12 years ago. I built an 18-year corporate career in publishing, marketing and membership services, and for most of it, I was outwardly successful. But throughout much of it, I was inwardly very unhappy and kept asking “Is this all there is? I loved my family life, but my corporate career was deeply unsatisfying and ended very badly. In short, I found my work lacking in any positive meaning or purpose, and I faced numerous challenges that later morphed into significant crises. Despite my efforts to determine what else I should do professionally (I saw a therapist and career counselor, took costly quantitative assessment tests [which I’m not a fan of, by the way], etc.), I could not find a way. I finally did figure it out and forged a very fulfilling new path, but it took years and some very costly missteps.
Now, after 10 years of serving as career coach and trainer helping professional women advance in business and build more satisfying careers, I’ve learned more about why people are so resistant to career change. And I’ve created a model for change to help professionals build a career that delivers both the “essence” of what makes them happy, along with the right “form” of it to suit their financial needs, values, life intentions, standards of integrity and more.
So how do we do it? What are the six keys to figuring out what you really want?
1) Hoist yourself out of the tiny box you’re trapped in
All people who are stuck feel this way because they’ve made some costly or rigid assumptions about what they need to be happy or what they’re capable of creating. These assumptions (often unconscious) keep them trapped in a tight little box with a lid that won’t budge.
Some of these limiting assumptions are:
– I need to earn $XXXXXX to live the life I want
– My marriage or family won’t survive my making this change
– I’ll be too old by the time I make this change
– I don’t have what it takes to reinvent myself or even repurpose what I do
– I’m a loser and a failure – I can’t compete
– I’m too unskilled or out of touch with current trends
– I have nothing important to offer
– I’m not special
– I’m too beat up and burnt out
– Nothing else will be better
How can you get out of the box?
Well, certainly not by yourself. You simply can’t identify your special talents, capabilities and potential alone and in a vacuum. You’ve got to involve someone else in the discussion about your life, and make it someone you respect, who’s knowledgeable, successful and fulfilled in what they do, and who doesn’t have an agenda about where you net out. Find someone today who can mentor, advise or coach you about what’s possible, and help you see what’s holding you back from identifying the power you have to make a difference, and the vast number of options that are truly available to you.
If you’re trying to do this all by yourself, you just won’t make headway. We can’t solve a problem on the level it was created.
2) Don’t throw the baby out – look at what IS working along with what IS NOT
Many people wake up in midlife and realize that their careers are dissatisfying and unsuccessful, and they’re so upset about it, they want to chuck the whole thing out. Don’t make that mistake. Conduct a thorough assessment of what you would like to preserve and maintain in your current career, and get rid of only the parts that make you feel angry, sad, frustrated, and thwarted. After all, you’ve been in this career for some time now – it’s not all bad. You were attracted to it once, and you are utilizing some talents and skills that you want to continue to draw on.
As an example, I spent years as a copywriter and marketing professional in publishing. I didn’t enjoy writing copy for scientific books and journals, but I was good at it. Now, I use all of those copywriting skills daily (and enjoy them), for my own business, and as a marketing consultant helping career women, entrepreneurs and small businesses promote their brands and services.
3) Address your problems now, before making a change
I make this a mandate in the career coaching work I do – that the client begin today to address and resolve what’s making them miserable in the current job or career before they leap. Until you feel more empowered and become more controlled, authoritative, and masterful in your current situation, you can’t expect to attract a better situation in the next chapter. You’ve got to do the inner and outer work to earn a “fantastic” career – it’s not just going to fall in your lap.
I’ve found that once my clients do the work to address their problems in the current situation (such as terrible bosses, or cut-throat competition), their challenges tend to evaporate and often they don’t need to leap to something completely different.
4) Develop a supportive network and community that loves you
At the risk of sounding like a broken record, the reality is that you cannot get where you want to in life and work if you don’t have help. No matter where you are in your career, you need people to help you launch to the next level. Start building a more powerful network of loyal colleagues who admire and appreciate you and would be more than happy to help you do what you want. There are many ways to develop a community that will support you, including utilizing LinkedIn fully, offering endorsements and testimonials to people you respect, attending association and networking meetings of professionals in your field, reaching out to former colleagues who you admire, taking a class with other exciting, like-minded professionals, and the list goes on.
5) Build your personal brand and tell your story well
Before you can figure out what you really want and get it, you have to know who you are and tell a compelling story about yourself. Of the thousands of professionals I meet and work with each year, only a tiny fraction can answer these questions in a compelling and engaging way:
– What are you known for, and fabulous at?
– What do you offer and do that is significantly different from what the best in your field do?
– What were you noticed for back when you were a teen and young adult?
– What skills, talents, abilities make you stand out?
– What life experiences have shaped you in special ways?
– What are your Life Intentions?
– What are your core values – the non-negotiables you need in life to be happy and fulfilled?
– Whom do you love to serve and support, and why?
– When you’re 90 years old looking back, what do you want to have given, contributed, stood for and achieved?
If you can’t answer these questions, you won’t figure out what you really want because you just don’t know yourself well enough and others won’t know how to help you.
6) Now…connect the dots
After you’ve done all this work, it’s time to connect the dots (listen to the amazing Steve Jobs TED Talk about how to live before you die and “connect the dots”). Figure out what paths will truly make sense for who you are and what you want to achieve in life.
Gain clarity about the best path for you by conducting online, offline, passive and active (in-person) research, to answer these critical questions:
What are my passions, and which of these make sense as a livelihood and which are better as hobbies?
Based on the passions, talents and skills I have, what are the careers best suited to me?
What are all the factors I need to address in planning my next direction (money, timing, energy, geography, family needs, support, enjoyment, health, etc.)
Am I making any erroneous assumptions about myself and my life that I need to rethink?
Do I know what it takes to be successful in this new direction, and am I committed to it 100%?
Do I really want to start my own business, or am I just running away from something?
How will I fund my career change or transition?
Where will I find the ongoing support I need?
Don’t make the same huge blunders that so many career changers make. Do the inner and outer work required to 1) discover who you are and what really matters to you, 2) overcome the obstacles in the way of your success, and 3) identify and “try on” the paths that make the most sense for you and your life.
11 ways to make a career that no one talks about
Most people have a “normal” job: from 9 to 6 and bonuses at the end of the year. There is nothing wrong with this kind of work, but there are other stories – about people who occupy leadership positions by the age of 30, happily run to work and affect people’s lives. The secrets of successful people were told by career coach Raghav Haran, and we are sharing them with you.
And before building a career, ask yourself the question “Why do I need a job at all?”
1. Candidate Requirements Negotiable
As a child, I used to go shopping with an Indian grandfather. He carefully looked at each item in the basket, and when we approached the cashier, he began to bargain – I was very ashamed at that moment! But surprisingly, he often succeeded.
Noah Kagan, founder of AppSumo, uses a trick called the coffee challenge: you walk into a coffee shop, place an order, and ask for a 10% discount on your checkout. To the indignant questions of the cashier, continue to insist on your own and, most likely, you will receive a discount.
In the film Who Am I, the protagonist shows how it works by an example:
“There are a lot of things in life that we perceive as something that is not negotiable, although in fact it is.”
I once applied for a business development manager position that required candidates with three to five years of experience, and I had about zero experience because I was still in college at the time. Instead of sending a resume and waiting for a response, I decided to act: I wrote to potential partners of the company and offered options for cooperation, pretending that I was already working for this company. Then he told the recruiter about the work done and the results and received an offer.
When I was applying for a Product Designer position at Quora, I did a usability test of their mobile app, wrote down some design suggestions, and sent it to the head of the department. He answered me and invited me for an interview. If you want to impress a recruiter with your resume, make it in our constructor.
Most of the requirements for candidates are negotiable, unless they are professions such as a theoretical physicist, surgeon, lawyer or judge. You just need to prove that you can be useful. People who are afraid to break the rules usually spend years and lose money trying to achieve a goal that actually requires a lot less effort.
2. Imposter Syndrome Is Good
The New York Times has investigated the reasons why certain groups of people are more economically successful than others. It may sound politically incorrect, but Asians are, on average, much more successful than everyone else.
“Indian Americans earn almost twice as much (about $90,000 a year, compared to the median household income of $50,000). Iranian, Lebanese and Chinese Americans are also earning more,” NY Times.
The main reason is cultural differences. More successful groups of people have three identical characteristics:
superiority complex;
feeling insecure or feeling that they are not good enough at what they do;
control over impulsivity.
Combined with the belief that you can achieve anything you want, discipline and a constant desire to live better, we have the formula for a successful and spectacular career.
3. “Reality” is an illusion
The reality around us depends entirely on what we are used to. When I was younger, I had friends from poor families, their parents did not have higher education. When they found out that my father is a doctor, they said: “Wow, this is so cool!” As if it was something incredible. In their understanding, becoming a doctor was unrealistic, because they did not understand how to achieve this.
House M. D. Dr. Foreman, who became a doctor despite difficulties, said:
“If someone told me that their dream was to become a doctor, I would think that this is quite an attainable goal. Because I know what it takes to get into medical school, I know the internal process and communicate with people who have successfully gone through it.
There are an infinite number of things that you take for granted that others find incredible.
Get a diploma? There’s a guy somewhere who doesn’t dream of going to college because none of his family has a degree. Working for a Fortune 500 company? This seems unrealistic for people whose parents work in the lowest paid jobs. Create a multi-million dollar business? An upper middle class teenager thinks it’s impossible.
Work side by side with the best people in the industry, read their books, listen to their interviews, study what they have learned – and one day these unrealistic crazy dreams will come true.
4. Don’t choose a career based on average salaries and employee demand
When you’re fighting for the top spot in your business, “averages” don’t matter. I find it funny when people say “writers don’t make money” — I made five figures in a few months from a couple of blog posts and emails, helped hundreds of people find their dream jobs, and built an audience of 6,000+ people.
In any industry, people who strive to be the best get enough money and success, and the rest fight for the rest. Similarly, in programming – the best developers are hired by Google and Apple, and the rest, having been satisfied with training in two-week online courses, only dream about it.
Do what you love and try to be the best at what you do. The rest will come.
5. Choose your boss, not the company
People think that getting a job at Facebook or Goldman Sachs will get them a lifetime job. No, the key to a successful career is having a good mentor. The mentor will introduce you to a narrow circle of professionals in the field, next to whom you will grow and acquire your own connections.
For example, I worked with NYT bestselling author Ramit Seti and he introduced me to the first people in his circle. Thanks to this, I received offers from several of the largest marketing companies in the world.
Mentor will save you from mistakes that will cost you several years of time and effort. One day I was going to apply for a job, but one of my mentors (a prominent figure in Silicon Valley) said that I should not do it. This advice saved me months, if not years, of going in the wrong direction.
Surround yourself with the right people – this will open up great opportunities and save you from serious mistakes.
6. Don’t be afraid to give up money for a good experience
Hedge fund manager Stanley Druckenmiller once said:
“If you’re starting out in a career and you’re offered a choice of a good mentor or a big salary, always choose a mentor. These are incomparable things. And do not even think about leaving this mentor until your knowledge takes shape and reaches its peak. There is nothing more valuable in my business, and in many other businesses, than a good mentor. And many kids are too short-sighted in the pursuit of quick money instead of preparing themselves for life in the future.
Literally every elderly person claims that the main mistake of youth is impatience. Young people are short-term oriented (working in cool companies to impress family and friends), but do not think about far-reaching goals.
Don’t be afraid to take a low-paying position in a good company now so that you don’t have to think about money at all in the future.
7. What got you to level 1 won’t get you to level 2
At the very beginning of a career, technical skills are essential. You are tested on knowledge of Excel or writing code, etc. But over time, communication skills come to the fore – how you can find a common language with people and work in a team.
Most people think that if they excel in their craft, it’s all in the bag. This is partly true – being a master of your craft is very important, but you need a little more than that. You need to understand how to maneuver in the world of corporate politics, how to approach a harmful business partner, or how to motivate employees. And it’s also cool not to wait for a task from the leader, but to do something yourself: invent, implement, analyze.
8. Real education begins after college
It’s sad that many people think they know everything because they graduated from university. In fact, most of the material from lectures cannot be applied in real life.
Successful people read more than one book a month, listen to podcasts, go to conferences, read research, and discuss The Next Big Thing with other successful people. So they can “connect the dots” between unrelated things and use those insights to discover more possibilities—they see the world from different angles and perspectives.
9. Influence
When you do something professionally, go online and write about it. Help those who are now at the start of the path, like you once were, and are trying to understand how this is done.
Exposure builds trust: the larger your audience, the more people will take you seriously.
10. Don’t outsource your company’s success
One day, a prominent venture capitalist in the Valley decided to work for a month in a coffee shop. Imagine an incredibly successful CEO at the cash register taking orders and delivering coffee. He wanted to study how a coffee shop works from the inside: understand logistics, systems, bottlenecks, inefficiencies, customer flow, etc.
Most people don’t even want to think about such a low-profile job. They consider working for companies like McDonald’s or Starbucks to be inherently bad, and that only big-name companies are good for future careers.
But a company is only as good as you make it good. For someone who worked at McDonald’s to learn the restaurant business from the inside and then open their own fast food, this job will be the most valuable experience in the world. On the other hand, a person who wants to get a job once and for all, having a couple of high-profile brands on their resume, is likely to be disappointed.
There is no default work good or bad – it is what you make it.
Working in a well-known company: pros and cons
11. Successful people never enter through the front door
Alex Banayan (author of books about business, venture partner at Alsop Louie Partners – ed.) spoke very well on this topic:
“[All successful people] treat life, business, and success… like a nightclub. It always has three entrances. Front, under which 99% of people line up in a long line and hope to be let in. The second door, where billionaires and members of the elite club freely enter. But there is always a third door. To get into it, you need to jump out of the queue, run down the street, climb on the dumpster, knock a hundred times, break the window frame and climb through the kitchen. But he always works. Whether Bill Gates sold his first computer or Steven Spielberg became the youngest director in Hollywood, they all entered through the third door.”
No one gets extraordinary opportunities by acting in a well-worn way. It amazes me how many people want to get the dream job that thousands of competitors apply for just by sending in a resume. It doesn’t work like that. The game is to notice the “unspoken rules” around you and give people what they need before they even ask you for it. That’s the only way to win.

“Where do you see yourself in 5 years?” — Work.ua
This favorite question of recruiters deservedly causes such a reaction from applicants as in the photo. Why it is asked and how to answer it correctly — Work.ua figured it out.
If you have ever been to an interview or read a couple of articles about how to pass an interview, you know for sure that the question “Where do you see yourself in 5 years?” extremely popular at interviews — practically eternal, according to Work. ua.
In theory, it is asked in order to find out:
the level of ambition of the candidate;
adequacy of self-assessment;
whether the candidate thinks about his professional future;
how plans to go to the intended goal;
will join the team and share the internal corporate culture of the company;
to what extent the candidate’s long-term goals correspond to the opportunities that the company can offer him.
Regarding the last point, it is worth remembering that the possibilities of companies can be different: someone is looking for ambitious candidates who want to constantly grow, and someone needs to close a linear position, which a priori does not provide for career growth.
How not to answer
There is no universal correct answer to this question. But it will be obviously wrong:
To say that you do not know anything about this or have not thought about it yet.
Answer that you don’t know what will happen tomorrow, not to mention such a long-term perspective.
Talk about the personal and touch on the professional quite a bit.
Talk about entrepreneurship.
You won’t like these answers anyway. After all, you come to the company to help it develop, and you yourself must strive for something new. Of course, you can laugh this question off by answering something like: “Celebrate the fifth anniversary of your question.” But after that it’s still better to move on to a reasonable answer.
How best to answer
Work.ua finds a three-component answer considered.
1. Show the right amount of ambition
Most employers are pleased to know that their employees have the desire to grow and develop. Healthy ambition should always be shown, but it is important not to overdo it.
A potential manager will most likely not want to hire you if you say you plan to take his place in 5 years. Even as a joke. The following answer can be considered moderately ambitious:
“I want to learn the ins and outs of this industry and become a professional in it” .
But remember that even moderate ambition may not always be an advantage. Especially if the company is waiting for you to be satisfied with working 5 years in the same position without any career ups. If you really apply for just such a position, you should not talk about ambitions that do not exist.
2. Show an interest in learning
Many people don’t know exactly what they want to do tomorrow, let alone the prospect of a few years, but you can always express a desire to learn and grow in a certain area.
Tell us about an aspect of your working life that you would like to improve. Maybe this is an area of knowledge in which you still understand little and would like to learn more, a foreign language or some courses – any interest and craving for knowledge.
Also, when answering this question, you can ask a counter one and find out from the recruiter how long this position has been open and where the person who held this position 5 years ago is now.
3. Explain how your goals are similar to those of the company
Prepare for an interview. At a minimum, search for information about the company on the Internet. It is good if the company has an up-to-date website, with the help of which it is easy to find out the purpose and mission of the organization. This is key information for the applicant – here you understand whether you are on the way with the company or not.
Select a few items from the company’s mission that resonate with your goals, and note how you plan to achieve them within the company in the coming years. For example:
“I love that your company is investing in the development of its employees. I would like to manage my team in the organization in five years and help each member of the department develop. .
Neutral response
Neutral response to the question “Where do you see yourself in 5 years” looks something like this:
“I do not have a specific plan for where I see myself in 5 years. But I would like to move forward. I am flexible, so I will do the current job to the best of my ability and keep an eye out for opportunities within the organization, even if it means changing positions. I also understand that life is more complex and varied than we can currently imagine, but I will do my best to grow within the existing company in a number of ways.
Work.ua emphasizes that there is no perfect answer to this question for recruiters themselves. Applicants, trying to guess the right answer, end up in jobs that they don’t like and eventually lose all motivation. If you are interested in a horizontal career and improving your skills, say so, it does not mean that you are without initiative. And if you are interested in growth upwards and higher positions, you should not hide it. After all, if you are refused due to the fact that this is not feasible in this company, why do you need this job?
And if you are asked in an interview about where you see yourself in 5 years, be prepared for other questions that may deceive you.

If you want to make a career – get up “on the wrong foot”
Have you ever thought about how mood affects your work, the work of your colleagues or subordinates?
Your leg was crushed in transport, you were cut off by a dashing driver, you faced the scourge of all modern megacities in the most unpleasant way – a traffic jam, or you just had a bad morning … Minor troubles, but as a result you are late for work, come to the office irritated, angry or depressed, and that’s all – as a specialist and an effective worker, you are lost.
Does a bad mood really make our day dark and reduce our productivity? After all, some people achieve amazing results by working in a state of nervous tension. And others manage to calm down and get rid of a bad mood, settling in at the workplace, looking through mail and performing other routine procedures. But there are only a few of them, the majority cannot get out of the maelstrom of morning irritation and anger, and, of course, such a state directly affects the work. But how?
Nancy Rothbard Professor of Management at Wharton University , and Steffany Wilk Professor Fisher School of Business Ohio State University conducted a series of studies to find out how mood affects employee performance, understand what events that affect on our mood, have the greatest effect – the events of the beginning of the day or the events that occur in the process of work.
We are unable to completely separate our personal and professional lives. This is a well-known axiom, but the reason for this situation, according to Rothbard, is the excess of roles that each of us is forced to fulfill in society.
In the process of research, it turned out that both good and bad moods have an impact on a person’s work efficiency, but good moods are stronger. The mood you “bring” to work has a much stronger effect on the overall mood of your day than the events that happen in the workplace. And this fact cannot be ignored. On the contrary, companies should think about how to improve the mood of employees in the morning. Many will say that this is a “trifle”. But this problem is still worth paying attention to, because this “imperceptible trifle” seriously affects the results of the team’s work.
The questions Rothbard and Wilk wanted to answer in the study were only two: “Does the mood at the start of the day affect the overall mood of the employee during work hours?” and “Does the mood of customers affect the mood of employees?”
In other words, they wanted to find out what upsets us more: a “cut” on the road or a disgruntled customer on the line?
The mood at the start of the day can be made up of many factors, including such life circumstances as, for example, an inopportune rain or an unexpected passing vehicle, family quarrels or reconciliation before leaving home. Working and non-working in our lives are not separated by an iron curtain, but are constantly in contact and influence each other. The mood of the beginning of the day always leaves its mark on the assessment of subsequent events.
Rothbard and Wilk studied the mood of call center employees of a well-known American insurance company. Both customer service representatives (employees of the customer complaints department) and managers and supervisors were selected. During the day, they filled out questionnaires, where they noted their condition, mood swings and events. The collected information allowed us to draw certain conclusions about the impact of the events of the day on the mood of employees.
In the selected company, customer service representatives were negotiating with approximately 64 customers per day, i.e. They talked on the phone almost all day. As the employees themselves noted, during the negotiation process, their emotions changed from positive to neutral, from angry to upset, and from frightened to sad. This is if they communicated with customers in a bad mood.
In addition, the researchers had access to the reporting system used by the insurance company to evaluate the performance of the representatives. These reports included, among other things, data on the proportion of time that each employee spent during the working day to respond to customer requests, and, accordingly, the time that an individual (in terms of work) wasted was calculated.
When analyzing all the collected data, it became clear that the mood at the beginning of the day is very stable and does not change. Those who started the day in high spirits did not lose optimism throughout the day. Those who started the day with a cork, a spilled coffee, or a family quarrel also did not change their negative attitude during the day.
Moreover, it turned out that the negative mood is almost completely unaffected by the good mood of clients or colleagues.
These findings were expected, they just needed to be confirmed, but the study revealed one interesting feature – how employees reacted to the mood of customers. When the mood of a company employee was good, and the customers were also sympathetic, the mood of the employees rose. But the good mood of the employees did not “react” in any way to the bad mood of the client, all the negative was simply ignored. The same thing happened in the case of the initial negative mood of the employee and the bad mood of the client: the employee’s mood did not worsen further.
It also turned out that people who spend less time at work are much more affected by the bad mood of clients.
In general, studies have shown that mood at the start of the day has a stronger and more consistent effect on mood throughout the day than a spoiled or elated mood after interacting with clients or colleagues. Another persistent myth was dispelled – the negative mood of the client does not affect employees during the day.
Observations have shown that employees perform their duties more carefully and attentively when they are in a good mood. They have more time to interact with customers, probably because they are less distracted from work, spend less time in cafes or on smoke breaks. But a good mood does not in any way encourage you to work more productively – the number of requests processed by “happy” people has not increased. Those. a good mood just makes a person perform his duties better, more carefully, but does not increase the number of customers served compared to the average figures. The negative mood effect is slightly different. Employees in a bad mood processed fewer requests per hour and paid less attention to their work. But a bad mood did not significantly reduce the time that an employee spent on one client.
One of the most important findings from this study is that the mood in which people come to work leaves a much stronger imprint on their state of mind than anything that happens to them during the day. It also turned out that the negative emotions of customers only affected inexperienced employees. And finally, a person’s mood actually affects his behavior during the working day and, as a result, the quality of his work.
The mood at the beginning of the day affects us so much because it is caused by personal reasons, which are usually much more important to us than relationships with customers, employees, etc. The most interesting thing is that the good mood with which you start the day, then it is very difficult, almost impossible to spoil. People have learned to competently fence themselves off from the negative caused by working moments.
It is important for companies to find a way to improve the mood of employees. For example, you should not increase morning stress by introducing fines for five minutes late. Rothbard believes that employee productivity and, as a result, the efficiency of the company can be increased by helping employees cope with problems that seriously affect their mood, their personal life. Including, for example, information on how to get around a traffic jam, or where to find a family problem solving specialist.

There are many career management tools, and it is not always clear what to grab onto. In the article, we will analyze the main ones and show you how to find yourself and a field that you will like, how to explore the market and choose a profession in demand, and where to look for help if you are confused on your career path. We will also share a cool exercise that you can do here and now and understand how comfortable you are in your current position.

Analyzing the working environment
Recently, the importance of psychological comfort has been growing, so employees pay special attention to the working environment. If 5 years ago, VHI and cookies in the office seemed to be the best benefits that a company can offer, now their range is much wider.
Work environment includes the following factors:
Work format: remote or office, rigid or flexible schedule.
Load and pace: 5/2 or freelancing, sprints or free planning.
Corporate culture: those models, values and norms of communication that are accepted in the company.
Company size: startup and a lot of freedom or large-scale projects in a large business.
Material motivation: salary, bonuses and other bonuses.
Physical motivation: meals in the office, medical insurance, equipment and tools for work, corporate discounts and bonuses, a subscription to fitness classes and free sessions with a psychotherapist.
If you want to analyze the current conditions, we suggest you conduct an experiment developed by PCC ICF career coach Svetlana Berger.
Make a list of all the work environment factors that matter to you. See what happened: what should be combined, removed or added?
Draw a circle and divide it into as many sectors as there are factors in your list. The size of each sector should correspond to the significance of the factor for you personally.
Rate from 1 to 10 and color each sector of the circle as much as you are satisfied with the implementation of the factor in your current job.
Analyze what happened. Does the work environment match your desires? What can you do to increase your satisfaction with slack factors?
An example of the analysis of the working environment according to the method of Svetlana Berger
This exercise will help you understand how comfortable you are working now. If your wheel is not spinning, you may be burnt out and it’s time to change something.
Taking care of yourself and your condition is, of course, a personal responsibility. But there is good news: there are many different tools that will help you bounce back even without the help of specialists. To support those who are now on fire, the Skyeng and H teams launched a self-care marathon, in which they share useful practices for working with the resource. Videos from experts, tests, cards and exercises appear on the Telegram channel three times a week to help assess the degree of burnout, work with your emotional state and start the year from scratch. For those who decide on global changes, we play career consultations weekly to make the transformation easier and more conscious.
Looking for my place
If the exercise has shown that it is time to choose a new career track, you will have to do a lot of internal work and in-depth market research to find your place among thousands of companies and positions.
Compare your desires and possibilities with what is now in demand. As a basis, you can take the Japanese value search system – ikigai. Traditionally, it is presented in the form of four spheres that answer the following questions:
What do I like?
What can I do well?
What will give me a livelihood?
How can I be of benefit?
Let’s consider each of them in more detail.
Japanese Value Finding Method – Ikigai
What I like
This is what you love to do with all your heart. Difficulty may arise already at this stage, because sometimes you want everything at once. Try to analyze yourself in four ways:
Values — What is important to me? What am I striving for in life?
Interests — What brings me pleasure? What am I willing to do for free?
Motivation — What in my work gives me energy and what takes it away?
Working Environment – Under what conditions will my results be most effective?
For example, you value freedom in everything, you are interested in studying biology, you do not want to tie yourself to a certain work schedule, and regular positive feedback gives you energy.
What can I do
Your expertise, your baggage of competencies and talents will lie in this area. What you know how to do and do very well. There are two vectors here:
Abilities and Skills – What do I do best? What qualities have helped me succeed?
Experience — What do I get most praise for at work? What can I always do, even in a stressful situation?
All skills can be divided into three large groups:
Hard skills are professional competencies that can be demonstrated, evaluated and tested.
Soft skills are socio-psychological qualities that are closely related to personal qualities and attitudes, social skills and managerial abilities.
Metaskills are deep competencies that allow you to overcome psychological difficulties. Process therapist Amy Mindell identifies 7 meta-skills: mindfulness, planning, personal productivity, communication, critical thinking, learning, and proactivity. With them, it will be easier for you to develop in several areas at once and become a T-shaped specialist, which is why they are so valued by recruiters.
Let’s say you’re excellent at research, but also productive at meetings and finding a way out of any conflict – which your colleagues are delighted with.
What will give me a livelihood
Alas, if you do not take into account the material side in your desires and skills, you can remain a “hungry artist”. Pay attention to those positions that will provide you with a comfortable standard of living and close the main pool of expenses.
How can I be useful
When looking for a job, focus not only on your material benefits and interests, but also on the benefits you will bring:
Business reality — What is in demand on the market?
Career goal — How long will this profession or industry be relevant?
Do not be lazy and research this issue as deeply as possible – this way you will increase the chances of achieving the perfect match of your desires, skills and market requirements.

career consultant, founder of the Assemblage Point project
Building a career is a meaningful, deep and resource-intensive work on oneself. It is difficult to do it alone, which is why professional courses and the help of career specialists are so in demand today.
If you are confused and feel like you need help, contact career counselors or a coach. The fundamental difference between these formats is the role the specialist takes in communicating with the client. Let’s figure it out together.
Career coaching
A career coach is your partner and guide. He will not give you specific advice and recommendations, will not write a resume for you and will not find a job. But he will share his experience with you, give an assessment of the situation and help you look at the problem from a different angle.
The main principle of career coaching is that you yourself find the best answers to your questions, take responsibility for your life. You do not need someone else’s expertise, but support – and thanks to it, you yourself will come to the right decision for yourself. A coach will help you expand the boundaries of your personality, begin to listen to your opinion and choose yourself in a broad sense.
You should contact a coach if you:
want to grow further, but do not know where;
are not sure that they will be able to cope with their new role and responsibilities;
do not know how to build a leadership position when working with a team;
want to get rid of the feeling of stress and anxiety that you regularly experience at work.
There are usually no more than 10 sessions with a career coach, depending on the complexity and volume of the request. Such “therapy” will allow you to conduct a complete audit of your professional activities, your interests, values, strengths and weaknesses. Set a goal and outline the steps to achieve it.
Career advice
The second format is career counseling. The consultant acts as an expert, gives not just advice, but practical recommendations on finding a job, writing a resume and positioning in the professional market. Responsibility for specific actions and results is shared equally between the consultant and the client.
You should contact a career consultant if you want to:
get a job in a specific company;
find a job that will be relevant in 10 years;
become more confident in job interviews;
collect a first-class portfolio;
learn how to write resumes and cover letters;
prepare for the assessment.
It is important to understand that the help of career counselors and coaches is not a magic pill. They will not look for vacancies for you, go to interviews with you, and certainly will not suit you by acquaintance. But they will help you understand yourself, your desires, look at the situation from the outside, formulate goals and outline ways to achieve them. But you will need to seriously work on all this and yourself.
Assemblage Point program
If you need a complete career reset, take a specialized course. This will help to comprehensively assess the market, your desires, opportunities and choose the right career track.
The Assemblage Point brings participants together in a space where they can become a support for each other, get inspiration and support from classmates and experienced professionals in the field of HR and development.
The course will be useful for professionals who:
lost professional orientation and interest;
confused about values;
cannot get out of a career crisis;
suffer from impostor syndrome and burnout;
do not see their strengths;
do not know how to present themselves through resumes and social networks.
The main thing that you can take with you after completing the program are tools and approaches that you can return to throughout your professional life. To always remain confident in yourself and your career path.
There are many career development tools, and they are all different. Choose what you need at the current level, whether it be an exercise, research, career counseling or a course. Your career track is up to you.
A step-by-step plan: how to build a successful career quickly
Olga Lermontova, the creator of Carerum.Club, author of training programs, career coach and strategist, tells this at the request of Marie Claire.
What factors can hinder your career development?
You really do not have the necessary professional skills / experience (hard skills) for the job.
There is no necessary knowledge about how to look for a job – how to write a resume, cover letter, pass an interview. Or there are psychological difficulties: fear of rejection or stress from the resume mailing process.
Lack of soft skills. Many people think that only hard skills are needed to build a career, but there are much more serious difficulties:
No strategic plan. You do not know what you want in your career, how to achieve it and how to determine that the result is what you wanted.
Unwillingness to learn new things, lack of flexibility and willingness to change.
Mixing career and professional growth in one pile. These are different things: if a person is a professional, this does not mean that the process of building his career will happen by itself.
Decide on a long-term goal
Building a career – what does it mean for you? Grow to the head of the direction (vertical growth) or become an interindustry expert (horizontal growth) – these are different goals and the paths to them will be different. Define your life goals, then integrate your career goals into them. Identify your values and desires and build on them on your career path.
Focus on industries that match your career goal
And select companies in the same way. In a startup, you can grow quickly – this is their plus. But they often do not have a clear structure. If the startup itself stops growing, you can “freeze” too. A large company has a scale, more tasks and projects, more options for development, a lot of cross-functional interaction – these are pluses. But you can grow there much more slowly.
Focus on soft skills
Work is not only what you know how to do, but also how you do it: communicate with colleagues and partners, negotiate, negotiate favorable conditions, correct mistakes, resolve misunderstandings and resolve conflicts. Other things being equal, it is easier to build a career for those who have strong soft skills: you can be a professional in your field, but not be able to communicate and slow down career development ( see also: “Soft skills: 5 skills that will change your future and how to improve them”).
Choose with your heart
You don’t have to look for a calling: you can start with something you just love, or choose a company whose ideology you like, or go to work for a specific boss whose career or values inspire you. According to Business Insider research, it is those who are genuinely passionate about what they do who succeed.
Be adaptable
Anticipate the skills you will need in the near future, learn new things in your own and related fields.
Learn on the job, not apart from it.
The world is changing rapidly, you need to keep up with it. For example, if you work in marketing, then you should learn new promotion channels and don’t be afraid of the word TikTok. And if you manage projects, the terms Agile and SCRUM should also be a reason not to panic, but to develop new skills.
Build networking
Proper networking has a few secrets.
First : Don’t confuse networking with friendship or nepotism. A network is 2-3 circles of your acquaintances: friends, family, colleagues and people they know and with whom you may have common interests and goals. Networking is not a work of blasphemy, but the ability to use your communication skills for your task. They can be different: chat with someone who is already working in the company of your dreams, and learn about the corporate culture and the intricacies of selection, go directly to HR, discuss the experience of someone who changed their professional direction or moved to the same place where you plan to you, find out what pitfalls can be and what to be prepared for.
Second : Concentrate on what you are useful to your acquaintances. Networking is for mutual benefit, and it should be obvious to your surroundings. Talk about yourself, your goals, interests and dreams in such a way that this information becomes key when your friend has a request. Simply put, when an interesting career offer or opportunity comes up, your name is the first thing that comes to mind.
Do more than what is expected of you
Working just well today will not surprise anyone and you will not build a career. Start to understand what you had no idea about, learn from competitors, go ahead of the curve. Work on the principle of underpromise and overdeliver (promise less, give more).
Learn to look for a job
If you have relevant experience and self-confidence, a job will find you. And if it doesn’t find it, then something is wrong, it’s time to do some soul-searching.
Both of these statements are false.
You are solely responsible for your career. A person who incorrectly (or does not) position himself (or in any way), incorrectly looks for vacancies, does not know how to build a network, will move slowly in his career.
Remember that building a career is also a skill, people do not possess it only by the fact of birth or graduation from a university, it needs to be developed.
For example, job search courses can help in this case. Here is what they can give:
You will understand how to build a search for vacancies.
The ability to present your experience to the employer will be formed.
The skill of passing interviews will appear – the ability to present yourself in a conversation.
As a result, you will get a feeling of confidence in your abilities and competencies.
You have an applied job search skill that can be used as many times as needed.
The most important thing that such courses should give is the ability to repackage yourself as a specialist and not be afraid of this process.
What to study?
If you’re looking to change careers, find out what hard skills are needed for that industry by looking at vacancies on HeadHunter or Glassdoor. Browse the profiles of specialists on Linkedin – study their “baggage”. What are the market requirements for applicants in the niche you are interested in?
If you want to stay in your field but get promoted, pay attention to your personal brand. Build your image in the company and relationships with other employees ( see also: “8 ways to secure your reputation as an expert”).
Manage your career like a project
Evaluate and use the resources you have. In the case of a career, these are your knowledge, skills, experience, strengths, network.
Get your processes right. Don’t wait until your boss raises you or the job finds itself. But don’t go to the other extreme: you don’t have to apply to every job on HeadHunter or work 14 hours a day to earn a promotion. Learn to be precise and efficient.
Evaluate intermediate results, reflect, analyze
Manage risks.

When it comes to career, it is better to take care of some things in advance. Not because some all-knowing guru said so, but because it will make your professional future – and, of course, your daily work – much easier.
Do you need to cross off all the items on your list by the time you turn 35? Definitely not. Consider this a list of recommendations that can make a big difference in your career.
1. Decide how to present yourself briefly
You should always be able to briefly answer the question “what do you do?” In fact, it is better to learn how to do it so well that no one will forget later. Therefore, carefully consider what you would like to convey to the person who asks about the type of your activity.
2. Know your superpower
In other words, figure out what you’re really good at. For example, John Maeda, who directed the MIT Media Lab and the Rhode Island School of Design, called curiosity his superpower. Maria Popova, author of the blog Brain Pickings, called perseverance. Serial entrepreneur Tina Roth Eisenberg considers enthusiasm her ability.
3. Know your weaknesses
On the other hand, it is very important to be aware of what is difficult for you. Not to be sad about it, but to know which people can be hired to complement your skill set, and which responsibilities can be delegated (so you have more time to do what you’re really good at). In this regard…
4. Learn to Delegate
As you move up the career ladder, you will have to learn to distinguish between things that deserve time and those that don’t. More importantly, learn how to effectively and seamlessly delegate tasks to other people: interns, employees, partners, childcare professionals, and so on.
5. Make a list of career priorities
There are many opportunities in life, but don’t waste your energy on things that don’t meet your goals. Decide honestly for yourself what you want from life and career, and make a list of priorities that you can use as a guide when you next have to make a choice. 6. Do something you will be truly proud of
Whether it will be remembered for centuries, if you get paid for it, or if it is just something you have long wanted to change in your life – take care of that in your resume there is something that you will be deeply proud of in your soul.
7. Draw the right conclusions from what you are not so proud of
Each of us was wrong about something. It is much more important to learn something from this experience and draw the right conclusions for the further stages of your career.
8. Expand Your Boundaries
Do you think you can host a 30-person meeting but can’t host a lengthy 100-person conference? It can help you expand your boundaries. In general, this is what you need to do at least sometimes. After all, you never know how good you really are until you go beyond the usual.
9. Do something you’re afraid of
This is where you’ll have to push your boundaries more intensely—that is, go far beyond your comfort zone. Whether it’s speaking at a conference, participating in a major advertising project, or writing a memoir – why not try something that scares you at least once early in your career? They say big risk can lead to big results. 10. Learn to take criticism calmly
Hillary Clinton once said, “It’s important to take criticism seriously, but not take it to heart.” What it means: The only way to learn and grow as a professional is to know when you’re not doing your job. But if you humbly take all the comments personally, there will be no trace of your confidence. Trust Hillary’s experience and start treating criticism like a pro.
11. Learn to properly criticize
Tell your boss that constant control on his part kills team spirit, or, for example, explain to subordinates that in general you need to come to meetings on time – you are unlikely to have such things without achieve what you want and become a successful specialist. Learn how to present criticism competently, and the sooner you do it, the better.
12. Learn to say “no”
Even though the word “no” is only three letters long, many of us find it very difficult to pronounce. However, being able and doing this is extremely important for a career (and for peace of mind).
13. Build a large network of people you can trust
The most valuable asset to your career is your connections. These connections take time to build, so it’s best to start immediately.
14. Enlist the support of career counselors
We are not talking about looking for a mentor here. However, knowing a couple of people who can offer advice on anything from a relationship with a boss to a drastic career change can be very helpful.
15. Try to look decent on the Internet
Google search results and social media profiles are increasingly replacing people’s first impression of you. Make it a positive experience! Change the privacy settings on all old or questionable photos. Get rid of compromising posts on Facebook and Twitter. Customize your Google search results so that the content you want to show appears at the top. Perfect your LinkedIn page.
16. Build a portfolio of your best work
Whether it’s a binder of printed articles, marketing campaigns, annual reports you’ve worked on, a personal website showing your skills – having a portfolio ready is useful to quickly show your boss ( or future boss) that you are capable of.
17. Learn to sell (yourself or whatever)
Yes, even if you don’t intend to cold call. The truth is that sooner or later you will have to sell something to someone, whether it be presenting your idea to your boss or writing a cover letter explaining why you are the perfect candidate for the position. 18. Learn to negotiate and communicate with superiors
In most cases, this is the only way to get what you want and deserve. If you don’t have much experience, start small (for example, get your boss to pay for your attendance at an expensive conference). Many mistakenly believe that you just need to endure any instructions from your superiors and their approach to work, without thinking about whether it makes sense. In fact, the ability to communicate with superiors and negotiate the best working conditions for you is one of the key employee skills.
19. Learn to write persuasive letters
Don’t send emails that you’re not proud of (or wouldn’t be if your boss saw them). Make sure you write them as well as possible.
20. Perfect your handshake
This may not seem like such an important skill, but a handshake can easily make (or ruin) the right impression. Fact: One Fortune 500 executive once admitted that when choosing between two candidates with roughly the same experience and skills, he gave the job to the one with the best handshake.
21. Choose the task management system that suits you
Try to find the most suitable task and workflow management system for you, be it a cloud service with synchronization between all devices, pen and paper or something else. You may change your choice if you leave for another job or a new app is released. But you need to know what works for you to keep your productivity at its peak.
22. Know your energy levels and use this knowledge
There is nothing worse than working when the body is not in the mood for it. You need to stop wasting time while your thinking abilities are at their maximum, and not force yourself to work during an energy downturn. Figure out what times you are most and least productive, and use that information to plan your day.
23. Know how much sleep you need and try to get that amount for yourself
We hope you learned this lesson while at university, but just in case, let’s reiterate: sleep is very important. Determine how many hours of sleep you need and ensure that you get that amount each day. Health and career depend on it. 24. Learn to manage stress
Stress can take over your life and ruin it, so it’s best to learn how to control it. If this is a problem, start fixing it as soon as possible.
25. Stop apologizing too much
You may feel like you’re just being polite or even building up your reputation, but in fact, apologizing too often, especially for minor things or things you’re not responsible for, can make people doubt your abilities and professionalism. Try to apologize only when you are really at fault, and not when a colleague asks you to go back to the previous slide in your presentation.
26. Have a plan in case of problems at work
What will you do if you suddenly become unemployed? If you don’t have an answer to this question (or the answer would be “run and panic”), then it’s time to make a backup plan. Of course, no one wants to think about a crisis, whether it’s a sudden layoff or problems for the company itself, but if it does happen, what would you choose: have a plan of action ready, or fuss and quickly look for a new job?
27. Take on a side project
Have you ever thought about working in consulting? Thinking about opening your own Etsy store or selling vintage cars? Try it. In the best case scenario, you will have another job and additional income, and in the worst case, you will just make your life a little more interesting.
28. Invest in yourself
The world is changing faster than ever, so it’s important to keep evolving to stay on top of your profession. And to do this, now you don’t even have to go back to school.
29. Invest in the world around you
Participation in volunteer projects or training a young professional – there is little more fun than improving the world around you.

I have attended Los Angeles International Charter High School, since my freshman year and I have been able to witness the changes that have taken place throughout the years. As a freshman, I was very disappointed in the culture and atmosphere in the school. I dreaded going to school every day. Fortunately, within the next two years there were changes in staff, the school atmosphere, professional relationships between students and teachers, and student engagement. Students became more engaged with their studies while administrator and staff worked hard to create a more welcoming environment for their students. Los Angeles International Charter High School has changed for the better and is a great college preparatory school. Although the school takes pride in their approximately two hundred student, it is a very small campus and I believe it would be better to have more space. Thank you to the staff for not giving up on their students.

I genuinely enjoyed my experience throughout K-12 due to the amazing staff, administration, and friends I’ve met along the way.
Attending for about two years only, this small charter High school makes it a good environment to know the staff and students. Being small though has its drawbacks as it isnt your typical high school. Needs improvement financially to make the school look better and feel good. Made up by mostly hispanics, teachers try their best to give the best of academics. Placing studies before sports, the players of each team are good especially volleyball! overall an average school but could be better.

Student Demographics
Student Enrollment
The total enrollment at Los Angeles International Charter High School is 271 students, making it a somewhat small high school, in the bottom half of all California high schools by size.
As a smaller-sized high school, Los Angeles International Charter High will feel like a cozy learning environment. With fewer than 100 students in your class, you’ll likely get to know most other students and your teachers well. This will give you the feeling of a small liberal arts college.
But with a smaller student body, you won’t have as many activities and clubs to choose from. If you find Los Angeles International Charter High lacking for your interests, consider looking to your local community to supplement your interests.
Growth in Student Body Size
Is Los Angeles International Charter High School growing or shrinking? This will help you see trends in where the school is headed.
From our calculations, the enrollment at Los Angeles International Charter High has steadily
increased over the past few years. We calculate this by comparing enrollment in grades 9 to 12.

As you can see in the table above, the freshman class is 39 students larger than the senior class. This suggests that the school is growing in size and taking on more students.
There are a few reasons this could be happening. The city of Los Angeles could be growing in population, thus sending more students into Los Angeles International Charter High. Alternatively, Los Angeles International Charter High could be relaxing its student policies and taking in more students.
Gender Split
Are there more boys or girls at Los Angeles International Charter High School?
From our statistics, Los Angeles International Charter High has a 45:55 split between male and female students in the high school grades.
Los Angeles International Charter High has a balanced male-female ratio that’s largely representative of the general population in Los Angeles County. Since the student body is roughly half and half, it should feel like there are equal numbers of boys and girls in your classes.
This usually means that Los Angeles International Charter High doesn’t strongly select for either males or females, unlike other schools that have a large majority of males or females.
Ethnicity Breakdown
What’s the racial diversity at Los Angeles International Charter High School? Does one ethnicity make up most of the student body, or is it fairly balanced?
From our statistics, Los Angeles International Charter High has a homogenous student body, with the overwhelming majority of students identifying as one ethnicity. Only a third of California schools show as little diversity as Los Angeles International Charter High does. When attending class, most students will be of the same ethnicity, with some variation.
The majority of students at Los Angeles International Charter High are
Hispanic. In California, Hispanic students make up the majority of all students at 51.5%, and are thus the most common ethnicity. Predominantly Hispanic schools are the most common type of homogenous school, and Los Angeles International Charter High fits within this category.

School Safety
How safe is Los Angeles International Charter High School to attend? Can you expect a lot of conflict as a student here?
To study this, we look at disciplinary data for two types of incidents at Los Angeles International Charter High: referrals to law enforcement (when incidents are reported to police), and arrests.
These are the most serious disciplinary actions available to school administration and are more severe than suspensions or expulsions. Suspensions are often discretionary and can be given just for being disruptive in class. In contrast, law enforcement referrals and arrests often indicate incidents that put the safety of other Los Angeles International Charter High students at risk.
In the school year of 2011-2012, there were 0 referrals to law enforcement, and 0 school-related arrests. This is out of a total enrollment of 200 students.

Academic Performance
Now we get to a major aspect of assessing a high school: academic performance. How good of an education will you get at Los Angeles International Charter High School? Will you be competitive for college? Will you have access to advanced classes?
We’ve compiled everything we could find about Los Angeles International Charter High’s academics here.
Standardized Testing
Next, we’ll look at another major piece of high school academics: standardized testing performance for Los Angeles International Charter High School students. These are tests that are administered to large populations of students for comparison purposes.
Let’s start by taking a look at the data for nationally administered standardized tests.
SAT Scores
As you probably know, the SAT is a critical test used for college admissions. The higher the score you get, the better your academic performance compared to students nationwide, and the easier it is to get into top colleges.
We did in-depth research and found the average Los Angeles International Charter High School SAT scores.
The average composite SAT score is a 1250 out of 2400, compared to a national average of 1500. Each year, roughly 99 at Los Angeles International Charter High take the SAT.
This is a very low SAT score, putting Los Angeles International Charter High in the bottom 25% of all California schools, and well below the national average. Only 12% of SAT takers here score above the national average. Unfortunately, this suggests that most students attending Los Angeles International Charter High are not high-achieving, and may find it difficult to be admitted to a good college.
Note, however, that an average is just an average – you still have the potential to rise above expectations. If you work hard and earn an SAT score well above Los Angeles International Charter High’s average, you’ll have a great shot at entering a good college.
Here’s a breakdown of SAT scores by section:

ACT Scores
In California, the ACT is less popular than the SAT. Fewer students take the ACT, and typically these students are more motivated and academically prepared for college. Therefore, it’s harder to compare Los Angeles International Charter High School ACT scores with the rest of the country.
At Los Angeles International Charter High, the average ACT composite score was 15, compared to the nationwide average of 20. Each year, roughly 37 out of 271 total students take the ACT.
Unfortunately, this is well below average performance, putting Los Angeles International Charter High in the bottom 25% of high schools in California. Most students who take the ACT here are well below the national average.
Since the ACT tests what you learn in school, this may be a warning sign that the quality of education you’ll receive at Los Angeles International Charter High may be lacking compared to other schools.

Advanced Placement (AP)
Advanced Placement (AP) classes are college-level courses that are an additional academic challenge may give Los Angeles International Charter High School students credit for college.
Here’s what we’re looking for: high average AP test scores as well as high AP passing rates.
AP Scores
Every year, roughly 27 students in grades 9-12 at Los Angeles International Charter High take 27 AP exams. It’s important to understand how students score on the AP – earning a 3, 4, or 5 on the AP test means passing the test and often earning college credit.
The average score of all AP exams taken at Los Angeles International Charter High is 1.4 out of 5.
Compared to schools across California, this score puts Los Angeles International Charter High at below average performance. On AP tests, the passing score is considered a 3, and unfortunately the number of students who don’t pass is greater than the number of do. This performance places Los Angeles International Charter High School in the bottom 25 % of schools for AP tests.
This isn’t all bad news for you, though. It’s still good that Los Angeles International Charter High offers AP classes so you have the opportunity to take courses at a college level. Your school might be new to offering AP courses, and typically teachers get better at preparing students for AP tests over time. Finally, as you’ll see below, there are still students who earn a passing grade of 3 or above – and with hard work, you can be one of them.
We have specific data on how many students got a 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 (out of 5) on AP exams in the chart below:
To find out the passing rates for specific AP courses at Los Angeles International Charter High School, you’ll have to talk to your guidance counselor (who can then help you find that information). For instance, one AP Calculus teacher may have an above-90% passing rate, while another might only have a 50% passing rate. If you can, you’ll want to take the class with the teacher who has more students get a 3 or above on the AP exam.
Find out more about the average score for each AP subject here.
State Tests
As of 2014, eleventh graders attending Los Angeles International Charter High School must take standardized tests in English/Language Arts and Math as part of the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP). These align with the new Common Core standards and are called the “Smarter Balanced” tests.
If Los Angeles International Charter High students meet or exceed state standards, they’re academically prepared to graduate high school and go to college. Specifically, we care about the percentage of students who meet or exceed state standards. The larger this number, the higher the preparation of students at Los Angeles International Charter High.
English/Language Arts
At Los Angeles International Charter High School, 78% of students meet or exceed state standards in English/Language Arts.
This is considered very good and puts Los Angeles International Charter High in the top 10% of all high schools in California for English/Language Arts. Most Los Angeles International Charter High students pass or exceed state standards, and many of them are likely well above average.
English/Language Arts Test Results (2015)
Read more about what’s measured in each ELA area score here.
Math
The other major test taken for state assessments is Math. Across the state, Math performance is generally lower than English/Language Arts performance, so it’s natural for this number to be lower.

Academic Offerings
In addition to the standard high school curriculum, many high schools like Los Angeles International Charter High School offer advanced coursework as part of the Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) programs.
Brief Intro to AP/IB
AP and IB courses are designed at the difficulty level of college introductory classes. There are several important benefits to taking advanced coursework at Los Angeles International Charter High. First, taking more advanced classes shows colleges that you’re committed to challenging yourself academically, and that you’re one of the more advanced students at Los Angeles International Charter High. Taking AP/IB classes also raises your weighted GPA and makes you a stronger college applicant.
Furthermore, many colleges will accept your Los Angeles International Charter High AP/IB coursework as college coursework. In some cases, you’ll be able to skip introductory-level classes and move to more advanced classes. In other cases, you’ll be able to avoid having to take required courses and might even be able to graduate earlier than the standard 4 years. Often this will require you to pass the AP test, getting a score of 3 or above.
So what advanced courses does Los Angeles International Charter High School offer?
AP Courses
Los Angeles International Charter High School offers AP courses in 3 subjects.
This is a low number of AP subjects, putting Los Angeles International Charter High School in the bottom 25% of California schools offering AP courses. You’ll be very limited in your ability to explore your interests in math, science, humanities, or social sciences at Los Angeles International Charter High.
Take a look at every AP subject offered. If you want to take any AP courses not being offered at Los Angeles International Charter High, ask your counselor for ideas on how to cover the gap. If you’re a strong student and not feeling adequately challenged, you might consider transferring to another high school to access a more advanced curriculum.
Of course, keep in mind that even though Los Angeles International Charter High doesn’t offer many AP courses, it might teach the few it does offer quite well. You can see student performance in the AP score analysis section above.
The following AP courses were offered at Los Angeles International Charter High during 2015-2016:
Course Title
Chemistry
English Language and Composition
English Literature and Composition
Sports Teams
Finally, we’ll cover which sports teams are available at Los Angeles International Charter High School. Sports are an integral part of many students’ high school experiences. The more sports that are available, and the more levels supported (Frosh, JV, Varsity), the more likely you’ll be able to participate in a sport at Los Angeles International Charter High.
By the way, the Los Angeles International Charter High mascot is the Bulldogs. Go Bulldogs!
Los Angeles International Charter High School fields 7 teams for girls’ sports.
This is a low number that puts Los Angeles International Charter High in the bottom 25% of California schools that offer girls’ sports. This is understandable – sports teams are expensive to support, and many schools would rather support other programs with their limited resources. If you play a sport that Los Angeles International Charter High doesn’t field a team for, consider joining a local non-school team to get practice and compete.
And now for the boys: Los Angeles International Charter High School fields 11 teams for boys’ sports.
This relatively number puts Los Angeles International Charter High in the bottom 50% of California schools that offer boys’ sports. Sports teams are expensive to support, and Los Angeles International Charter High may not be able to offer the full range of options. If you participate in a sport that Los Angeles International Charter High doesn’t offer, consider joining a local non-school team to get practice and compete.

Language courses in Los Angeles Secondary education in Los Angeles Higher education in Los Angeles Why study in Los Angeles Interesting facts about Los Angeles
The American Dream is closer than you think. Studying in Los Angeles is a real opportunity to be in your favorite movie or TV series. A comfortable climate and the proximity of the ocean will make studying even more enjoyable. The main goal of studying in Los Angeles for Russians is to develop conversational skills. It will be much easier to complete this task, as the city has always been distinguished by its active life, in addition, you can easily find new friends here who will make your study experience more vivid. Here, Russians can get secondary and higher education, as well as come to language courses. Let’s consider each option in more detail.
Language courses in Los Angeles
If your goal is to develop language skills, learn English, have a comfortable and interesting vacation, then language courses in Los Angeles are the best option. Here you can not be afraid of the American accent, as the West Coast dialect is completely neutral, and full immersion in the language environment will make the process of learning the language fast and efficient.
Los Angeles provides a full range of language courses: short and long-term programs, preparation for international exams, sightseeing and educational tours, as well as summer language camps and language schools for children.
During the summer, Los Angeles universities open camps with language courses, as well as academic programs for adults and children. Such courses allow students to gain knowledge in a new field, improve their English language skills and make new friends.
Short-term study in Los Angeles is good for those who:
Not ready to leave the country for a long time, but want to learn and try studying abroad
Wants to discover a new field of knowledge or focus on an already loved one, and combine it with teaching English
Improve English skills in a short time
Independently choose the duration and intensity of classes.
Test drive student life in America and prepare for university.
Tuition for language courses in Los Angeles for adults and children starts at $390 per week
Secondary education in Los Angeles as well as boarding schools. Studying at a high school in the United States gives the child the opportunity for comprehensive development, he independently builds a curriculum, chooses extracurricular activities and can play sports professionally.
High school in the United States is divided into two age groups – junior (12-14 years old) and senior (14-18 years old). The training program lasts 12 years, not 11, as in Russia. Upon completion of the training, students take the Matura exam – SAT I and SAT II. The first option is suitable for those who want to go to college, and the second for admission to a prestigious university. Let’s look at each type of school in more detail:
Los Angeles public schools offer a standard set of educational programs, while high school students have the opportunity to choose in-depth courses in core subjects.
Most often, foreign students are given the opportunity to study for one year on an exchange program in grades 9-12. Studying at a Los Angeles public school is a great opportunity to immerse yourself in American culture, the cost of education for international students is not high, but there are also disadvantages, for example, many public schools do not have special language courses, and the quality of education can be patchy.
Los Angeles public school fees range from $17,500 to $27,000 per year
In the case of private schools, the leaders themselves determine the curriculum and the content of the curricula. Here you can find both non-standard creative programs and conservative ones. Private schools in Los Angeles have developed special programs for international students that will help them with further admission to the university. For students in grades 10-12, schools offer the following programs:
American High School Diploma – a certificate of secondary education;
International Baccalaureate (IB Diploma) – an international baccalaureate program during which students are engaged in pre-university preparation;
Advanced Placement (AP) – preparation for admission to prestigious universities abroad, the duration of the program is 2 years.
Private schooling in the United States helps teenagers acquire the necessary social skills and personal qualities, as well as develop their talents.
Los Angeles private school fees range from $26,500 to $70,000 per year
Charter schools are non-profit institutions that also receive funding from public and private sources, but have the ability to set their own admission requirements and choose various methods and forms of education.
The best option for getting a secondary education in Los Angeles is a boarding school, as the issue of a teenager’s place of residence is immediately resolved here. In addition, adaptation in such a school will be much easier and faster, and immersion in the language environment will be maximum. Students with high academic performance receive scholarships at boarding schools.
Los Angeles boarding schools cost from $18,000 to $80,000 per year
How can a Russian teenager get into high school in Los Angeles?
To enter a high school in Los Angeles, a Russian teenager must:
Provide a certificate of the international language exam
Provide translated scorecards for the last 3 years
Provide a portfolio of the student, which will indicate all his school and extracurricular achievements
Pass a personal interview with a member of the admissions committee or pass special tests
Language courses and secondary education in Los Angeles are a fun and exciting experience that will help you and your children develop their language skills. We are ready to provide an individual consultation, where we will select a suitable program for you and discuss all the necessary details.

History
The school was founded in 1961. It was built for $6 million on a backfilled canyon. At the time, it was the most expensive high school in Los Angeles City Schools. The founding founder was Herbert L. Aigner (died 2000). Class of 2012 was the 50th graduating class.
The estate was originally called All Hallows Farm and was owned for many years by the Conway family: Hollywood movie director Jack Conway; his wife, actress Virginia Conway – daughter of silent film star Francis X. Bushman – and their two sons, one of whom, Pat Conway, also became an actor. The property was subsequently leased to actress Debbie Reynolds and her husband, singer Eddie Fisher. Then it was decided, a few years later, by the state to build a secondary school in the eminent region.
Several members of the class of 1965 were profiled in the Time magazine article that led to the best-selling 1976 book by class members David Wallechinsky and Michael Medved, What Really Happened in the Class of ’65? . The book included interviews with several students in the class, whose experiences were told both individually and in groups on general topics such as the Vietnam War and the project, drug experimentation, and sex. Various school teachers were also interviewed, including French teacher Mr. Fred Johnson and English teachers Ms. Jean O’Brien and Ms. Rose “Mama G” Gilbert, who retired in 2012-2013 after 63 years of teaching . Aged 9For 4 years, Mrs. Gilbert was the oldest active teacher in LAUSD. The character Maz Kanata from Star Wars was based on her. The book’s success later inspired a short-lived anthology television drama series of the same name that ran from December 1977 to July 1978 on NBC.
In 1989, 20/20 aired a series about Palisades High School students. Howard Rosenberg of Los Angeles Times wrote that “Palisades High School is characterized here as a high-achieving institution with high levels of drug and alcohol use. Today 20/20 do not ask how both are possible in the same school. ”
Around 1992 there were so few students that LAUSD considered closing the school. Pali Hai’s parents, Principal Merle Price, and Pali Hai staff decided to advocate for the school to become a charter school. In 1993, the school, along with three elementary schools, received approval from the Los Angeles Board of Education to become a charter school. This was the first time that a group of schools in California had become a charter school. The school asked students to follow a code of conduct and introduced new academic programs. K 19In 1998 enrollment recovered, with 200 students previously attending private schools.
This school was the subject of a fake e-mail that started around 2002. The post falsely claimed that a satirical message to parents about student absenteeism and homework problems was actually on the school’s answering machine. The message was originally written in response to parents’ outrage that students who missed classes for more than ten days for 90-day semesters (not counting legal gaps such as sickness) could get a bad grade in this class. This has been reported on several websites including Snopes and BreakTheChain.org.
Campus
Campus is bounded by Temescal Canyon Road to the east, Sunset Boulevard to the north, El Medio Street to the west, and Temescal Academy (formerly known as Temescal Canyon’s first continuing education school and then Temescal High School) to the south. It is bisected by Bowdoin Street, which runs between the school’s football field and the school’s academic center. The football stadium, located just one mile from Will Rogers State Beach, is called Stadium by the Sea.
Many films have been filmed in Palisades. One of the first major films made at the Pali school was Carrie . Directors George Lucas and Brian De Palma held a joint audition of for Carrie and Lucas’ Star Wars (1977) at the Palisades campus. Other films filmed on location include The Swinging Cheerleaders (1974), Popular (1999), Crazy/Beautiful (2001), The Glass House (2001), Old School (2003), Freaky Friday (2003), Havoc (2005), and Project X (2012). The school also filmed Modern Family (2013), Teen Wolf (2011), Netflix series American Vandal (2017) , Dude (2017) .) and He’s All That (2021).
Pali School was also used for the book Sweet Valley High School Party Weekend .
On April 25, 2021, the video for Olivia Rodrigo’s “good 4 u” was filmed at Palisades, directed by Petra Collins. The song later debuted at number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
As of 2010, approximately 43% of students, 1,180 out of 2,742 students, were delivered to Palisades Charter High School with over 100 Los Angeles Zip Codes. In 1994, approximately 70% of students, 1,176 out of 1,680 students, were bus-sheltered from South Central and East Los Angeles.

According to US News and World Report, 49% of Palisades Charter students are “Coloured”, with 32% of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as determined by students’ eligibility for the California Reduced Price Meal Program.
Curriculum
As of 1998, most of its classes are university preparatory in nature and it runs magnet programs in mathematics, science and technology. The school also has liberal arts and marine biology courses.
The school includes the New Media Academy, which has been one of three in LAUSD since 1998. Pali High uses its status as a charter school to make this program more visible. By that year, DreamWorks had funded it with $100,000. Place fees generated by Spelling Aaron’s school use for Malibu Shores were used, by 1998 to install a new computer lab.
Since 2002, Palisades High School has been offering surf lessons for physical education credit. It was founded around 1998 by Ray Millett, a marine biology teacher and surfer.
Palisades Charter High School is known for its excellent music program. His orchestra has won medals at the SCSBOA championships three years in a row: in 2013 he won silver, in 2014 he won gold in the 3A category and in 2015 he received bronze. The school also has a winter Drumline that competes in both SCPA and WGI, and is also a 2016 SCPA “A class” silver medalist.
Discrimination and lawsuits
Extensive hate graffiti was found on campus in 2016, including references to the Ku Klux Klan, Jews, African Americans, and LGBTQ people.
In June 2017, Palisades Charter High School received national media attention after a student blog featured an African-American woman wearing a noose around her neck.

Studying in America is a great chance to get a high-quality education that is recognized in most countries of the world, as well as start building a career in an international company.
Los Angeles is the second largest city in America and is known as the “City of Angels”. In addition to the world-famous Hollywood, this city is also famous for its scientific and educational potential. Los Angeles is one of the largest educational centers in the United States, there are about 40 higher educational institutions. It is also known as the center of the electronic and aerospace industries. Los Angeles is also famous for its economic success.
For foreign students, the advantage is the opportunity to combine studies at a high school or university and leisure. In Los Angeles, students will find a huge number of interesting attractions, museums, restaurants, shops and much more. Students will be able to walk along the Hollywood Walk of Fame or see the world-famous HOLLYWOOD sign.
Another undoubted plus is the mild climate and the large number of foreigners, which allows students from other countries to feel at home.
Education after 8.9 grade
American students aged 15-16 are enrolled in grades 9-10 of high school. For foreign students, there is an opportunity to enter the same classes and get an education on a par with American students, which makes it possible to master not only the curriculum, but also improve the level of English and make friends.
Education in America usually takes place under the American High School Diploma program. This program is aimed at preparing students for entering the university and includes the study of 6 main disciplines. This course is aimed not only at studying the academic program, but also at improving and developing the creative, sports, and personal qualities of students. The educational program ends with a diploma of secondary education.
Also, some schools may accept other educational programs that meet all of the requirements for educational programs in the state.
Schools usually have the following entry requirements (may differ depending on the school):
English at least 4.5-5.0 on IELTS or 41/70 on the EF test

Education after grade 10
After 10th grade, students can enter the 11th grade of an American school. Recall that in the United States there are 12 classes, that is, after the 10th grade, students can enroll in the last two years of the educational program. Namely, during these two years, American students study the subjects of the chosen program – IB or AP.
Advanced Placement (AP) is a traditional two-year American university preparation program. After passing the exams, students receive a diploma of complete secondary education. This certificate is accepted in many countries of the world. The program is aimed at the comprehensive preparation of students for admission to a higher educational institution. A feature of this course is that students go through almost the university program of the first two semesters in their chosen profession.
Another option is the international two-year International Baccalaureate or IB Diploma program, recognized throughout the world. Note, however, that this program has become less widespread in the United States. This course is also aimed at improving the skills and abilities necessary for entering the university. The IB program has a more comprehensive approach to the study of selected disciplines.
Post-Grade 11 Education
International students who receive a high school diploma in their home country may apply to US universities. However, many universities may require students to pass an internal test to assess the academic knowledge of applicants, as well as the results of internationally recognized English language proficiency tests.
Another option is to go to a community college. After completing such a college, students receive a certificate of incomplete higher education, the so-called Associate Degree. This certificate makes it possible to go to work or continue education in the chosen specialty, going straight to the third year.

Shining a Light on 8 Little-Known Benefits of Preschool
Starting kindergarten was a big deal when you were growing up, but now many kids are experiencing their first school milestone even earlier. Preschool programs for young children are becoming increasingly common, with 68 percent of four-year-olds and 40 percent of three-year-olds enrolled in a preschool program in 2017, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.1
You might think of preschool as an optional bonus for kids before they enter the “real” school system. But there are undeniable benefits of preschool that parents should consider when deciding whether these educational programs are right for their little ones.
“The human brain grows at an exponential rate between birth and age six,” says Dr. Jennifer Jones, founder of Green Ivy Schools. “Preschool is absolutely prime time to develop every aspect of your child for lasting lifetime results.”
Discover more about how preschool serves as the foundation for children’s learning with these little-known benefits of preschool.
8 Little-known benefits of preschool
Preschool offers many hidden benefits to children and their families, from encouraging healthy development to providing parents a more affordable alternative to day care. Read on to hear expert opinions about the many benefits of preschool!
1. Preschool teaches children to follow directions.
Every parent knows the frustration of repeating themselves over and over while their young child completely ignores them. What parents may not realize is that following directions is a skill that children hone over time—and preschool can help make this happen.
Elizabeth Malson, president of the Amslee Institute, shares that preschool gives kids additional opportunities to follow basic directions like when to line up or how to wash their hands. Even through these simple tasks, “children learn to listen to adults and view them as authority figures.”
2. Preschool helps children adjust to kindergarten.
It can be a big adjustment for a young child to navigate the workings of a classroom for the first time in kindergarten. Preschool programs, even those that are only part-time, can help kids make the transition.
“Exposure to school routines in preschool prepares them for the structure and expectation of kindergarten,” says school psychologist Dr. Ari Yares. In addition to seeing the basic rhythm of a school day, “children also learn hygiene routines like washing hands before eating and how to take care of their belongings in their cubby.”
3. Preschool establishes social and emotional development.
“Preschool is much more about developing social-emotional skills than it is about developing academic skills,” says Dr. Yares. These social-emotional skills include learning to share and take turns, showing empathy for classmates and self-regulating their own strong emotions. Without skills like these, children will have a hard time moving on to academic achievement in later years.
“Preschool provides a safe but challenging environment for children to learn how to manage the loss of a toy to another child during play or sit quietly and listen to a short story without interrupting,” Malson says. “These experiences help them explore different feelings and create the foundation for self-regulation.”
4. Publicly funded preschool can save parents money.
There’s no arguing with the fact that childcare in the United States is expensive. The Center for American Progress reports that it costs an average of $760 per month to send a preschooler to a licensed childcare center, an amount that puts many working parents in a financially tight spot.2
Preschool is an option that can help offset this cost while providing high-quality education to kids in their formative years. Head Start programs are available for free to families who meet income eligibility requirements. Many areas also offer free or low-cost preschools that are publicly funded. Preschool programs like these can add up to thousands of dollars of savings for parents who are currently funding full-time childcare.
5. Preschool provides opportunities for play.
Is play really a benefit of preschool? It might seem simple, but research shows that playful experiences prepare children for “deeper learning,” especially in essential skills like executive functioning. 3 Preschool exposes children to many different types of play that they may not have access to at home.
“Ultimately, the greatest value of preschool is inherent in the power of play and exploration,” Dr. Jones says. “The early brain is insatiably curious, and quality preschools provide vast opportunities for children to have exposure to various subjects, the arts, creative processes and literature.”
6. Preschool encourages physical development.
Believe it or not, physical development directly impacts a child’s ability to learn. Fine motor skills are necessary for kids to hold a pencil and learn to write as they get older, and gross motor skills are the whole-body movements that allow kids to balance and coordinate their actions.
Preschool environments give kids what they need to make progress in these important physical developments, including plenty of time spent outdoors. “Preschool helps children make mind-body connections that not only develop these skills but boost their self-confidence as children feel physically capable and self-sufficient in their bodies,” Dr. Jones says.
7. Preschool can reduce the need for special education services.
Special education services are often available to children who aren’t achieving developmental milestones or performing at a rate comparable to their peers in the classroom. Though these services are an essential intervention for kids who need them, the research is clear that preschool can often prevent kids from falling behind in the first place.
A report from the U.S. Department of Education (DOE) states, “Children who attend high-quality preschool programs are less likely to utilize special education services or be retained in their grade, and are more likely to graduate from high school, go on to college, and succeed in their careers than those who have not attended high-quality preschool programs.”4
8. Preschool contributes to education equality.
Preschool makes a difference that goes far beyond individual children and their families. The same DOE report shows that access to high-quality preprimary education can be the key that unlocks education equality across races, geography and income. 4
The report states that children who don’t have access to the benefits of preschool may begin kindergarten at a strong disadvantage in both academic and social-emotional skills. “For some children, starting out school from behind can trap them in a cycle of continuous catch-up in their learning,” according to the DOE. Grants and publicly funded preschool programs like Head Start are working to expand access to early education so that the benefits of preschool are available to all children across the nation.
Preschool is more than play
You can see that these surprising benefits of preschool extend far beyond giving kids the chance to play with their friends all day. These benefits of preschool are all thanks to supportive, trained preschool teachers who make learning come alive in their early childhood classrooms each day.

Benefits Of Preschool: Kids Who Attend Public Preschool Are Better Prepared For Kindergarten : NPR EdWhat happens when a group of the nation’s leading pre-K experts get together to lay out a blueprint for what parents, and educators, can learn from decades of research?
Preschool
Shannon Wright for NPR
Shannon Wright for NPR
Some of the nation’s top researchers who’ve spent their careers studying early childhood education recently got together in Washington with one goal in mind: to cut through the fog of studies and the endless debates over the benefits of preschool.
They came away with one clear, strong message: Kids who attend public preschool programs are better prepared for kindergarten than kids who don’t.
The findings come in a report “The Current State of Scientific Knowledge on Pre-Kindergarten Effects,” and the authors include big names from the early childhood world: Deborah Phillips of Georgetown University, Mark W. Lipsey of Vanderbilt, Kenneth Dodge of Duke, Ron Haskins of the Brookings Institution and others.
It lays out the current state of preschool education in the U.S. and what research can tell us about what works and what doesn’t.
Among their key findings, drawing from across the research base, are:
While all kids benefit from preschool, poor and disadvantaged kids often make the most gains. “Researchers who study pre-K education often find that children who have had early experiences of economic scarcity and insecurity gain more from these programs than their more advantaged peers.”
Children who are dual-language learners “show relatively large benefits from pre-K education” — both in their English-language proficiency and in other academic skills. Dual-language learners are mostly low income, Spanish speaking children, often with underdeveloped pre-literacy and pre-math skills. But, says Phillips, “there’s substantial evidence now that, because they’re learning two languages at the same time, they have stronger brain circuits that support self regulation.” That may explain why preschool can help them make quick progress: “Their capacity to incorporate new information and to switch attention from one task to another, these are the skills they bring.”
And yet, the researchers said, that doesn’t mean preschool should necessarily be targeted toward poor or disadvantaged kids. “Part of what may render a pre-K classroom advantageous” for a poor student or a child learning English, “is the value of being immersed among a diverse array of classmates.”
Not all preschool programs are alike. Features that may lead to success include “a well implemented, evidence-based curriculum” and an emphasis on the quality and continuous training of pre-K teachers. There’s still a lot of research that needs to be done, the study concludes, “to generate more complete and reliable evidence on effectiveness factors.”
Currently, the federal government, along with 42 states and the District of Columbia, spend about $37 billion a year on early childhood programs, mostly targeting low-income 3- to 5-year-olds.
When it comes to what preschools should teach, the researchers took on a big question in that field, too: Should pre-K focus on the social and emotional development of children or should it concentrate on what researchers call “skills specific curricula,” namely numeracy and literacy?
The research clearly says it’s not a matter of either/or.
“What we know is that children bring a vast array of experiences, both strengths and weaknesses,” Phillips says. “Some children need more support than others. Some bring vast knowledge and skills.”
Instruction built on social and emotional skills, rich play, toys, games, art, music and movement complements explicit instruction focused on things like learning to count and matching letters to sounds and words. Both benefit kids’ readiness for school.
For researchers, the critical questions now are: What should the next generation of pre-K programs look like? What else needs to happen — in preschool and beyond — to ensure a long-term impact? And how do we connect all the dots in a child’s educational trajectory beginning with preschool?
That’s no easy task considering that half of the school-readiness gap between poor and affluent children is already evident by age 2, before most kids ever get to preschool.
Another major hurdle is the disconnect between pre-K and elementary education. Rather than building on the skills that kids arrive with, researchers have found lots of redundancy with kindergarten and first-grade teachers repeating a lot of what pre-K teachers do. This results in what researchers call “dead zones” that squander hard-won gains.
“On that count we cannot declare victory,” says Phillips. “We need to look at the elementary grades as re-charging stations. “
Pre-K programs today can also do a better job reaching out to low income families dealing with stress and mental health issues. The home, after all, provides either a sturdy or fragile foundation, researchers say.
“We know that poverty and adversity compromises the developing brain architecture and circuits,” says Phillips.
And while even a high-quality program does not inoculate children from adversity and poverty, it can help mitigate those effects.
“Absolutely,” says Phillips. “That is pre-K education’s primary function.”

15 Reasons Why Preschool Is The Most Important Decision
It’s hard to send your child off to school for the first time, especially when they’re just 3 or 4 years old. But giving your child a quality preschool education will set them up for greater success in every area of life.
At preschool, children build a strong foundation in social, pre-academic, and general life skills that will give them a leg up in school and beyond. Research shows that children who graduate from preschool have improved academic readiness, lower incarceration rates, and higher earnings.
Here are 15 reasons why preschool is important:
1. Preschool teaches children how to be learners.
Young children learn by playing. If a child’s first introduction to classroom learning is in an overly academic environment, they may fail to develop a strong sense of curiosity and be turned off from school.
Preschool provides opportunities for children to learn in ways that interest them, building a positive association with learning. The best preschool helps children develop a drive to learn that they will take with them throughout their time in school.
2. Preschool helps children develop social skills.
At preschool, children spend extended amounts of time with other children and adults outside their families. The environment provides plenty of opportunities to learn how to make friends, cooperate, listen, and build foundational conversation skills.
3. Children develop self-regulation skills through “teachable moments” and other interactions at Preschool.
When children play and engage in activities with their peers, there will almost inevitably be minor conflicts that bring frustration, anger, and other emotional challenges. These conflicts provide opportunities for “teachable moments.”
Teachers can encourage children to notice how their behavior impacts others and practice interpersonal problem-solving skills. Preschool graduates leave class with emotional skills they will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
At preschool, teachers offer a variety of games and activities that help children build pre-literacy skills. Children sing alphabet songs, learn rhymes that help them distinguish between sounds, listen to read-aloud stories, and play with magnetic alphabet letters.
In addition to learning these foundations, children often develop a sense of excitement and motivation to continue learning. Preschool pre-literacy learning takes place during activities that are inherently interesting to children, which builds positive associations with reading.
5. Preschool builds a foundation for math.
Preschool doesn’t teach children math before they’re ready, but it does build the foundations for future success through fun activities and guided play. Children often play matching, sorting, or counting games, as well as board games that help students develop an understanding of numbers and categories.
6. The preschool environment nurtures children’s creativity and curiosity.
Young children have active imaginations, and those imaginations can be nurtured to fuel learning and creativity. The preschool environment is set up to encourage exploration.
Preschool teachers are trained to help children develop their own ideas and thoughts. They encourage curiosity, ask questions, and listen to children’s ideas rather than pushing “correct” answers or behaviors.
With a stimulating environment and the right adult interactions, children are more likely to develop curiosity and creativity.
7. Preschool students get to make choices.
Preschool children get to choose which activities they participate in. That means they not only get to follow their interests but also learn decision-making skills and responsibility. Children are encouraged to make their own choices.
Teachers watch children and keep an eye on which activities they seem interested in. If a child seems unsure of how to enter other children’s play, they may offer suggestions on ways to join the group.
8. Children learn to take care of themselves.
At preschool, children are often given chances to practice being responsible. Preschool teachers teach and expect children to wash their hands, keep personal belongings in cubbies, and put toys back in their designated spaces.
9. Children learn to take care of each other.
In addition to taking care of themselves, preschoolers learn how to take care of others. Teachers encourage children to help each other learn skills they are more competent at and view themselves as a resource for other children.
Preschool children may also be given opportunities to help out in the classroom. Teachers may ask them to set the table at snack time, fix the calendar, or help set up an activity, for example.
10. Preschool promotes language skills.
Children learn language skills best in a language-rich environment. At preschool, teachers help children develop language capabilities by introducing new vocabulary during activities and asking thought-provoking questions.
With ample opportunities to try new things, listen to read-aloud books, act out stories, and sing, preschool children have a clear advantage in learning to communicate effectively.
11. Children develop cognitive skills.
Children build cognitive skills through activities that challenge them to try new things, solve problems, ask questions, and simply observe the world around them. Preschool emphasizes these types of activities, and children learn more as a result.
12. Preschool activities help children develop motor skills.
While literacy, math, and cognition are important, brainy skills are not the only ones that young children should learn. Many preschool activities are designed to help children develop physical coordination and fine motor schools.
Children are challenged to develop fine control of their fingers with projects that involve threading with beads, drawing, or even cutting with scissors. Many preschools also offer daily opportunities for children to challenge themselves by jumping or climbing.
13. The preschool environment provides structure with limited rules.
Preschool may not seem highly structured at first glance. However, classroom space is always organized to encourage social interaction and skills development.
Preschool teachers provide opportunities to engage in group activities, listen to stories, and work together with other children. In an environment with a range of activity choices, children can explore their curiosity while still getting used to structured activities.
14. Preschool prepares children for kindergarten.
Kindergarten has become more and more academic over time. Because of this trend, some parents believe their children need a stronger pre-math and pre-literacy foundation in preschool to succeed later on. Others worry that their children need more structured play and opportunities to explore their interests.
Preschool provides both kinds of learning opportunities for children. A high-quality education program will offer children both protected play time and skills development that prepare them for kindergarten.
15. Preschool is a foundational opportunity for growth.
More than anything else, preschool helps children develop the skills they will need to grow throughout their lives.
With improved social and communication skills, they will be better able to ask for help and cooperate. With strong pre-literacy, cognition, and math foundation skills, they are less likely to struggle or have a negative experience in school.
The emotional skills and understanding of the world that children develop while they are young will help them become constructive members of society as they grow.

The Benefits of Your Three-Year-Old Going to Preschool -Legacy Academy
Posted on November 1, 2021 : Posted in Children’s Success in Life & School, Education and Development
Every preschool teacher will tell you that preschool is a beautiful experience for children. Preschool allows them to learn in a safe and nurturing environment with their peers. It also provides an opportunity for early literacy skills, building vocabulary, developing social skills, and becoming emotionally secure.
However, preschool can be just as beneficial to parents as it is to the child. A preschool-aged child spends more time at home with their family than any other age group in childhood– about 40% of preschoolers’ waking hours are spent at home with mom or dad! Before we get into some of the eleven key advantages you will get if you send your three-year-old to preschool, let’s discuss what a Preschool is.
What is Preschool?
A preschool is a place you can send your toddler to while you work so they can receive early childhood education. They will learn and socialize with other children in a safe environment where they can ask questions, play games, and experience new things. There are many different types of preschools, including Montessori and Waldorf preschools, that offer different creative curricula, so be sure to research the options available in your area.
How Does A Preschool Benefit Your Three-Year-Old?
With the advent of new preschool programs popping up in big cities all over the country, new parents are asking each other the same thing- is it worth it? Multiple studies affirm the benefits of a preschool program for children. However, children are not alone in this; the entire family can benefit from preschool. Let’s take a look at some of the benefits you receive when you enroll your three-year-old in preschool.
1. Fine Motor Skills Development:
Enrolling preschool at three years of age helps your preschooler develop fine motor skills such as writing letters and numbers. These skills inspire preschoolers to continue with academics in the future by going to kindergarten when they are five years old.
2. Language Development:
Language development is an essential part of preschool learning for any child. Preschool exposes young children to new words every day, which helps them build vocabulary. When a preschooler learns how to construct sentences, their vocabularies will grow. There is also a correlation between young children who attend preschool programs and preschoolers who do better in elementary school.
3. Self-confidence:
One of the most important benefits preschool programs give to young children is self-confidence. When preschoolers get a chance to interact with other children and learn new things, they become more confident in themselves which leads them to perform better throughout their lives academically and socially.
4. Health Benefits:
Aside from academic benefits, a preschool program that exercises proper health and nutrition services is also important for a child’s schedule. One health benefit is that it reduces health care costs for child health problems. For example, preschoolers receive immunizations they need to help prevent them from getting viruses easily through child care or elementary school since they are exposed to more people than toddlers who stay at home with their parents.
5. Prepares Kids for Elementary School:
One of the most important benefits is your three-year-old being prepared for kindergarten when they become big four-year-olds. Preschool gives young children an early start by having them learn letters and numbers which will help them in their future communication skills. There have been many studies showing that students who attend preschool tend to do better in elementary school because they have early childhood special education catered to a lifelong learning focus.
6. Ensures Academic Success:
As a parent, you want to prepare your child for the academic success you know they can achieve. Many parents and teachers agree that enrolling children in a preschool program at three helps them perform better once they reach elementary school. By enrolling them in preschool, you’re providing your child with a foundation for learning that they’ll carry with them throughout their school career.
7. Develops Social Skills:
It’s common knowledge that three-year-old children need help developing social skills. Preschool is often the first time that children interact with other children outside of their own family. Why not introduce your child to the world around them in an environment that is gentle and welcoming? Preschool strengthens a child’s emotional intelligence, so they are better able to cope with stressful situations and manage their negative responses. Your child learns more than just their ABCs and 123s. They also make friends and learn important social cues such as sharing and personal space.
8. Satiates Your Child’s Thirst for Knowledge:
At the age of three, your child’s brain is like a sponge, ready to soak up every ounce of knowledge. You want to allow your children room to explore the world around them. It’s at this age, that they begin to question everything. Like why the sky is blue and why the birds fly south for the winter. They want to know where the sun goes at the end of the day, and why it rises in the morning. Beginning kindergarten readiness at the age of three improves your child’s ability to absorb this information as well as emotional development.
9. Provides Your Child with a Safe, Structured Environment:
Enrolling your three-year-old in preschool gives them a safe and secure environment where they can feel free to learn and grow. For example, preschools often teach the basics of personal safety, such as what to do in a fire or when approaching a stranger. Additionally, most preschool programs typically promote healthy habits such as brushing one’s teeth or washing one’s hands after playing outside. The structured activities in early childhood education help kindergarten teachers more than most parents know.
10. Gives You the Opportunity to Return to Your Work and Passions:
Your toddler isn’t the only one who benefits from spending time in preschool. You probably catch yourself daydreaming about what life was like before children or wondering if you’ll ever get another minute alone to pursue your passion or career. Enrolling your child in a preschool program gives you more time to do the other things you love. Imagine returning to your job without worrying about your child’s well-being. Write the book you’ve always wanted to, finish getting that degree, or simply enjoy a nice cup of coffee with friends.
11. Preschool Allows Parents to Connect with Their Children:
Even though you are not with your three-year-old all day, preschool still helps you connect with your child. Although they might be intimidated at first, your child will soon realize that preschool is fun. As a result, they begin to bring that fun home with them. The stories they tell, the crafts they make, and the knowledge they share help you communicate with your child in new and exciting ways.
What Should You Look for in a Preschool?
When you are looking to send your child to preschool, there are many things to consider. Advanced early childhood services provided to young children are extremely beneficial. If cost is a factor, in some instances, financial assistance could be available to qualifying families; always explore options. Considering the benefits listed above are great ways to help find a developmentally appropriate program. The creative curriculum they use is important since this will help them get ready for kindergarten. If the creative curriculum doesn’t align with what your child needs, they may falter when they get older and start school.
Check out our post about “Tips to Select the Top Preschool Activities for Your Child”
You can start sending your child to a place like Legacy Academy as young as six weeks old. This is important because it will get them ready for pre-kindergarten and ensure they know how to behave when they get there. Be sure to check what kind of policies they have regarding meals and naps. You do not want to send your child somewhere where they cannot take their lunch or nap with them.

Looking for the Best Preschool?
Don’t let the number of preschools overwhelm you or keep you from enrolling your three-year-old. At this age, learning is a vital part of their development. There are numerous benefits associated with preschool, and knowledge is the most important one. It’s also key to remember that social development and a head start on education have lasting implications. Enroll your child today.
Early childhood education yields few academic benefits — but still has lifelong effects
There’s a bizarre-seeming paradox sitting at the heart of research into early childhood education. On the one hand, there’s a sizable body of research suggesting that kids who go through intensive education at the ages of 3 and 4 don’t really come out ahead in terms of academic abilities. By kindergarten much of their advantage has receded, and by second grade researchers typically can’t detect it at all.
On the other hand, there’s an equally substantive body of research suggesting that early childhood education produces a profound, lifelong advantage. Kids who enter intensive preschool programs are less likely to be arrested, more likely to graduate, and less likely to struggle with substance abuse as adults. One study with a followup when the students were in their mid-30s found that they were likelier to have eventually attended and completed college.
This is an area where research is fiercely debated — and really important. In 2017, the US spent $9 billion on Head Start, the flagship early childhood education program launched in the 1970s. If one set of studies is wrong, that has profound implications for how we should be spending that money instead.
Here’s an explanation that makes sense of all the research: The benefits of early childhood education aren’t coming from the academic skills they teach students. Early childhood education helps because it’s reliable daycare.
Early childhood education’s effects fade — except the ones that persist decades later
In the past few years, early childhood education has taken a beating in studies of its effects a few years down the road. The Department of Health and Human Services commissioned a massive study of Head Start, the flagship early childhood education program, and found “the benefits of access to Head Start at age four are largely absent by 1st grade for the program population as a whole. ”
In the 2008 to 2009 school year, when Tennesseehad to assign spaces in their early childhood education program by lottery, it created the conditions for the perfect natural experiment. Researchers found, if anything, negative effects: “the control children caught up with the pre-k participants on [kindergarten and subsequent] tests and generally surpassed them.”
There are studies out there which have found lasting benefits to test scores. But in general, the better-conducted the study, the more discouraging the results.
How is that compatible with the impressive list of positive long-term effects discussed above?
One explanation commonly entertained in the debate over early childhood education is that the studies for one side or the other are just wrong. Pessimists about education interventions have pointed out that the recent studies, which found no effects from early childhood education interventions, are randomized control trials (RCTs), which are considered the gold standard for research into policies like these.
Meanwhile, the findings of long-term benefits come from longitudinal studies, tracking all of the kids in a program. RCTs are generally more reliable on a complex question like this one. So maybe the RCTs are right, the longitudinal studies are all turning up noise, and there are no effects from preschool.
But defenders of early childhood education can retort that the evidence base for the long-term effects is actually quite solid. Some of the studies that find a long-term advantage from education are very carefully designed to avoid the methodological problems associated with not having a control group.
For example, the Brookings Institution tried to compare kids who attended Head Start with their siblings who didn’t, and found long-term effects on graduation rates, college attendance, and adulthood self-control and self-esteem. They even found that Head Start improved parenting practices for the next generation.
A different analysis by the National Bureau of Economic Research used a regression discontinuity design — exploiting the fact that Head Start was provided to the poorest counties but was not provided to some nearly identical counties just over the income threshold. They found effects from Head Start on child mortality, graduation rates, and college attendance.
Optimists, then, have often argued that it’s the RCTs that must be wrong — maybe there are persistent effects on what students learn even though most studies don’t turn them up. There are some studies in which researchers found persistent gains from early-childhood school programs. They’re often the ones that go well beyond preschool, offering five or six years of high-quality intensive education. It might be that a few standout programs actually do deliver academic results. But they seem to be rare, small, and hard-to-scale.
There are also some independent reasons to suspect that early gains from preschools don’t last. In general, education in kindergarten just does not predict performance by the end of elementary school very well. Researchers Guanglei Hong and Bing Yu, looking at data from a large longitudinal study of kindergarteners, found “no evidence that early-grade retention brings benefits to the retainees’ reading and math learning toward the end of the elementary years. ”
One more thing to look into is health interventions. Early childhood education programs have life-affecting long-term health outcomes, which is likely because the education interventions are often packaged with health interventions. Head Start, thought of as a preschool intervention, also provides meals, social services, parenting services, immunizations, and thorough health screenings that catch diabetes, anemia, and hearing and vision problems.
It seems possible that much of the benefits from early childhood education are actually from the health interventions — which is a big deal because those parts of the program are much less expensive than the preschool parts.
This can’t be the whole story, though, because not every education program that showed some results included health interventions. (And one study was thoughtful enough to provide health interventions to their control group as well, and still found results.)
Some room for the role of preschool — but not as an educational intervention
So if there’s still some effect from preschool, but it doesn’t come from teaching children skills they’ll retain in school, what’s driving it?
The study I just mentioned — the one that provided health interventions to the control group as well — is suggestive. Called the Abecedarian Project, it was an experiment conducted in the 1970s and it remains one of the most promising pieces of evidence for early childhood education.
The program provided intensive intervention from birth to age 5, spending about $20,000 a child in today’s dollars. The project had a small sample size compared to many of the other studies of this topic. (One hundred and twenty families compared to nearly 5,000 in the latest examination of Head Start.) And it included departures from random assignment that should make us less confident in their results.
Still, it found students in the intervention program did amazingly better than the control group — including being four times likelier to graduate from college, five times less likely to have been on public assistance, significantly reduced chances of being arrested or charged with a crime, and significant improvements in adult math and reading ability.
The Abecedarian Project did something differently from other early childhood education programs — it started at birth. Here’s why that’s significant: For infants, we might expect that the benefits of an education intervention are less a result of teachingthem things and more a result of providing them with a consistent, warm, and safe environment.
We wouldn’t expect to see academicbenefits from providing infants with play, care, and affection, and providing their parents with free child care. We might expect, however, to see them grow up into healthier, happier people.
When you look more closely, it looks like that’s what’s going on with three-year-olds as well. Teaching them to read may not make them stronger readers at age eight, but having a safe place for them to go full-time during the workday is an enormous boon to their families at a critical age.
Low-income parents are often under intense pressure due to lack of access to daycare. Without childcare, it’s much more difficult to work a consistent job — as you’ll frequently need to call in sick to cover gaps in informal child care or take care of a sick child. Without child care, it’s much more difficult to pursue additional education as an adult and move up to a higher-income position.
Without child care, it’s much more difficult to leave a violent or dangerous home because it involves moving yourself and your children away from your only sources of child care, which are typically hyper-local — a neighbor or a relative. (Many of the children in programs like Head Start have homes with multiple risk factors such as abuse, neglect, and substance abuse.)
So the most important effect from early childhood education may be that these programs are places where parents can leave their children all day, allowing the parents to work a full-time job or pursue higher education.
In other words, early childhood education may change children’s lives not by teaching them things they’ll retain in elementary school, but simply by being in a safe, predictable, and consistent environment for them to play in — and by providing their parents with the stability to get and keep better jobs.
Evidence from Washington, DC’s preschool program
There’s substantial evidence for the power of preschool to achieve exactly that. Washington, D.C. made preschool free and universal a few years ago, and the city saw huge benefits for low-income parents. Labor force participation for women with young children in DC increased from about 65 percent to 76.4 percent over a decade. (Compare that to the 2 percentage-point increase nationally during the same time period.) The effect was even more pronounced for low-income mothers, whose labor force participation increased by 15 percent.
It’s rare to see a jump that large from a single intervention. But studies of universal child care programs in other countries (such as Canada) have found significant effects, about the same magnitude as the effects in DC, which suggests these effects are real.
If we look back on the earlier, contradictory-seeming studies with this theory in mind, a lot of the evidence stops looking so contradictory. Head Start and similar programs produce effects — like lower incarceration rates and higher graduation rates — that have long been known to be related to a stable environment in early childhood and parental labor force participation.
Such programs don’t typically produce lasting improvements in academic success in elementary school and middle school, which should be unsurprising, as the evidence suggests sustained gains in academic ability are hard to achieve under any circumstances.
In short, early childhood education programs do have real effects — but these effects likely don’t stem from their merits at educating children. The effects likely come from these programs’ function as child care.
If this is true, it should change how we think about early childhood education. Head Start’s mission statement is to improve school readiness. But school readiness seems to be an area where Head Start doesn’t really matter, while it has lifelong effects in other areas.
Since Head Start is focused on school readiness and not on providing reliable child care, only about half of Head Start programs are full-time — even though this theory predicts that the long-term benefits will be much, much stronger for full-time programs. (Indeed, there’s already some research into which Head Start programs are best suggesting teacher education, class size, and curriculum don’t matter, while program hours matter a lot.)
Expansions to Head Start have focused on requiring teachers to have more advanced degrees and qualifications, which raises the cost of the program and shouldn’t affect outcomes if the outcomes are a consequence of having reliable child care rather than of teaching children to read early.
Furthermore, if the benefits of early childhood education come from its effect on low-income families, everyone trying to evaluate it by testing second-grade math scores is looking in the wrong direction. There have been calls to cancel Head Start because of the fade out of test scores, and even proponents of early childhood education have argued that we shouldn’t aim for universal preschool since the tests show it doesn’t help. From this perspective, those studies are all concerned with the wrong thing — and will turn up null results whether the program is working or not.
And this way of thinking isn’t limited to Head Start. In announcing his philanthropic venture into early childhood education, Jeff Bezos said, “Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire. And lighting that fire early is a huge leg-up for any child.” That’s compelling — and it’s not related to the real case for the impact of these programs.
There’s actually not much evidence that starting education early makes any difference for children. What there is evidence for is that a safe daycare and a stable home environment make a big difference, and that greater family stability and wealth — which child care enables — produce lasting, positive results.

The Benefits of Preschool – New York Family

Every parent wants their child to have a great education. Elementary, high school, and college learning are all undoubtedly important, but the path to a successful education can start as early as the toddler years—long before a child steps into a kindergarten classroom.
Preschool learning—also known as early childhood education—is a great option for many families, and can offer a strong foundation for a successful academic career.
What is Preschool?
It seems like a silly question, but it’s important to define what preschool actually means these days. In the past, preschool was considered by many to be just a time for children to play.
Some critics have even referred to it as a form of “babysitting service.” While preschool can provide an excellent and enriching child-care opportunity for working parents, the belief that preschool is just a time for free play has changed.
Nonetheless, play is extremely important for healthy child development.
“Preschool should be a place for focusing on all the areas of development. Play is how children learn, interact with their environment and acquire new concepts and skills,” Jeannine DiBart, co-owner and co-director of Katonah Playcare Early Learning Center in Katonah, NY, said.
“Play is essential in development, but only works this way if the preschool is planning, evaluating, and utilizing play with an educator’s eye. Play must give the children hands-on opportunities to learn and develop and the educators must set up purposeful experiences.”
Benefits of Preschool Learning
Some parents grapple over whether to send their child to preschool or keep them home in their toddler years. Of course, every family has its unique circumstances and its own factors to consider when making this important decision.
While there are definitely pluses to keeping your child at home, many social workers and education experts agree that preschool offers children many lasting benefits.
In fact, children who attend high-quality preschool programs reap benefits that can last through school and their lives, according to a review of research by the Learning Policy Institute, a Palo Alto, CA, nonprofit that conducts research in the field of education policy and practice.
An overarching benefit of preschool is the vital role it plays in the development of the whole child. The pre-kindergarten years provide a time in a child’s life where social, emotional and cognitive development needs to be nourished and developed equally, many educators say.
It’s important to note that preschool is often the very first time a child is apart from his or her parents and in a group of peers, which as many parents know can be stressful for a child, but an experience that will pay off in the long run.
“All preschools should have as much of a focus on this social and emotional component as cognitive development. Preschool gives the child a chance to acquire interpersonal and language skills needed in order to function outside the family unit,” DiBart said.
Another similar benefit preschool provides is an opportunity to socialize in a group setting, which is something that most likely can’t be achieved at home.
“Preschool gives children an opportunity to practice social skills and develop those social skills in a real-world kind of way that also reflects what it’s going to be like once they enter into school,” Michelle Felder, LCSW, a parenting therapist and founder and CEO of Parenting Pathfinders, said.
Problem-solving and negotiating are two important skills children start to acquire in preschool, Felder explained.
Learning these two critically important skills at a young age will help provide a strong base for healthy and successful interpersonal, academic and professional relationships well into adolescence and adulthood.
“Kids have the opportunity in preschool to practice negotiating time and space with other kids, which really helps them become more prepared when they enter kindergarten,” Felder said.
“This sets a really wonderful foundation for learning how to interact with other people, how to negotiate, problem solve, cooperate and listen. Preschool also builds those foundational conversation skills for kids as they’re talking to peers and grown-ups. They get so much practice in preschool.”
Another benefit of preschool learning is that professional teachers on staff are trained to identify problems a child may have—problems that might go unnoticed by parents.
“There’s a difference when it’s your own child versus a teacher who is trained to spot areas of growth, things that your child might need support in and ways that they can be prepared for kindergarten in a way that a nanny or parent can’t do at home,” Lisa Samick, director of the Early Childhood Learning Center at Temple Israel of the City of New York, said.
Preschool Learning: It’s Not Necessarily About Academics
Parents shouldn’t expect their child to become a whiz at reading, writing and counting in preschool. Early childhood education is much more about socialization, cognitive and emotional development, curiosity and learning through play.
Preschool also helps foster a child’s creativity, which is a big part of early childhood development. Teaching art to preschoolers nurtures an array of important skills.
“Children feel a sense of emotional satisfaction when they are involved in making their own art and their self-esteem is boosted by giving them opportunities to express what they are thinking and feeling,” Gail Porter, who co-owns and directs alongside DiBart at Katonah Playcare Early Learning Center. “As well, art requires decision-making and self-evaluation when the children decide what to portray, the media to use, when they are finished, and how to evaluate their art.”
While reading isn’t usually in a preschool curriculum, literacy skills are often taught through art. Since art is symbolic, children use art to represent real objects, events and feelings.
“This use of symbols provides a foundation for children’s later use of letters and words to symbolize sounds, and words and sentences to symbolize objects and actions,” Porter explained.
Tips for Choosing a Preschool
Now that you have an overview of what preschool can offer, it’s time to choose a school. The search for the perfect preschool can be quite overwhelming, but our experts shared some tips to help make the process a little less daunting.
To start, make sure the school aligns with what’s important to you as a parent, whether it offers indoor programming, opportunities for outside play, arts-and-crafts, among other activities. Many parents might also want to consider cost, location, and teacher credentials.
Other tips for choosing a preschool include:
Visit the school in person. Parents should have a warm and welcoming feeling when visiting a school and should feel free to ask questions.
Look at the student-teacher ratio. Consider how important class size is to you.
Consider toys and materials. Ask the staff if there are toys available that encourage children to be creative. These can include dolls and plush animals to foster imaginative play, LEGOs of preschool complexity levels, puppets for storytelling, and easy-to-use drum sets, among many other options.
Changing a Preschool Mid-Year
Sometimes, despite your best efforts to find a school that suits your family’s needs, the one you chose just isn’t the right fit. While your child might be blissfully happy, it can also be the case that sometimes their school isn’t working and you may be considering a mid-year jump to a new school.
The first step to switching schools is to figure out what isn’t working. Reach out to your child’s teacher or school principal.
Be honest that you’re considering a change of environment and bring up your concerns about the school. Keep in mind that you only see one side of the story as a parent and that they might have valuable insights to share about your child’s life at school.
Once you’ve laid out your concerns, listen carefully to their response and ask them whether they have any suggestions for improving the situation.
If you aren’t convinced that change will be possible and still have the same desire to make a move, ask what the process for leaving mid-year might be. If you’re at a private school, understand your billing notice period and how you will retrieve school records.
Once a new school has been chosen, mentally prepare your child for the move. Alicia Sharpe, a New York City-based Education Consultant, says, “Mental preparation starts at home. Speak with your child about this new coming transition; even if the child is too young to communicate with you verbally, they will understand. If possible, bring your child to visit the new school, meet the teachers, and introduce them to their new classroom before the start of the new school term. If you have an older child, help them understand that moving schools are not abnormal, but it will be an exciting fresh start. Reassure them that it’s possible to maintain friendships even when they’re at a new school, and consider how you can help them to participate in activities that current friends take part in.”

Why preschool education is dangerous and useful – Knife
It is known that parents want the best for their children. That is why a barely born baby is already trying to plan a life. Adults choose a school, a higher educational institution, decide which sections he will attend and study languages. It seems that the sooner a child begins to learn and engage in self-development, the easier his adult life will be. After all, while the rest of the guys were running around the yards and kicking the ball, the potential child prodigy was learning to write Chinese characters and solve problems in physics. We often see children around the age of five on TV who amaze with their knowledge of science. Looking at them, it’s hard not to admire, because not every adult is capable of this. But what is really behind this spectacle? Of course, preschool education plays an important role in the formation of a child, and one should not think that until the age of 7 the only goal is to rush along the street with peers and nothing else. However, at such a young age, a balance must be struck.
It is noted that the period from birth to kindergarten is extremely important for children, because at this time they learn to interact with other people, including peers, they become interested in how the world works. Preschool education should aim at emotional and cognitive development, as well as the integration of the child into the system of social interactions. Therefore, the excessive zeal of parents in teaching a small child may not have the best effect on him and negatively affect the still unformed psyche of a growing person.
Why is pre-school education important?
It is known that in the period from birth to the age of five, the child’s brain develops to the greatest extent. As a rule, this process is completed by 90% when children start going to kindergarten. At preschool age, a child absorbs everything like a sponge, he looks at his parents, peers and repeats after them. This behavior is determined by the system of mirror neurons, which is formed in the first years of life.
A necessary part of preschool education is socialization: the child must learn to interact both with peers and with adults.
Some parents do not pay due attention to this aspect, believing that the main thing is to teach the child to read, write and count, and the rest will follow by itself. However, man is a biosocial being, and each member of the genus needs communication. If a child does not learn to interact with people at an early age, then it will be extremely difficult for him to do this as an adult. As a result, a person will have problems interacting with classmates, colleagues and finding a soul mate, which will negatively affect his mental state.
In addition, pre-school education is designed to prepare the child for more serious learning. It is difficult to start sitting at a desk for forty minutes and writing from dictation, if before that life consisted only of fun games. It is difficult for young children to concentrate on something for a long time. They are extremely curious, so they quickly switch from one object to another. Parents and teachers are forced to work on the ability of children to focus on something specific for a long period of time so that it is easier for them to adapt to school.
Also, children who received education at preschool age are less prone to deviant behavior (alcoholism, drug addiction, etc.) and, as a rule, have a higher income.
A study was conducted in the 1970s that included children born between 1972 and 1977. The children were divided into two groups. One consisted of those who received preschool education, the participants of the other did not attend educational institutions. The study ended when the subjects reached about forty years of age.
So the results speak for themselves. Pre-school education gives children an advantage in the future life, allows them to develop their potential, skills and talents. The success of individuals has a positive impact on society as a whole, as those who have received preschool education tend to commit fewer crimes, are more active in the labor market and have more income.
Early childhood education around the world
Although the benefits of early childhood education are clear, according to statistics, more than 175 million children worldwide do not receive it. This is about half of the total number of preschool children on the planet.
Early childhood education is the least emphasized in poor countries with low incomes.
Only one child in five is enrolled in preschool education programs. However, this training is not effective due to low qualified teachers and inappropriate curricula. As a result, children are deprived of the opportunity to fully develop their potential, which negatively affects the future of the country.
According to available data, children in the system of preschool education are most involved in European countries (France, Germany, Great Britain, Norway, Italy, Spain, Iceland), as well as in Australia and Brazil. In these countries, this figure is 95% or more. Things are a little worse in countries such as Russia, China, the USA, Poland, Argentina, where the figure varies from 70% to 89%. The situation in African countries is very bad. On average, less than 25% of children receive preschool education there. The exception to the rule is Ghana, Algeria, Angola and Kenya. Here the indicator is not so far from the European one. Saudi Arabia is a kind of exception. Despite the fact that the income in this country is above average, very few children are involved in preschool education – just under 25%, which is approximately the same as in Africa.
Figure adapted from UNESCO Institute for Statistics report
In Russia, between 2015 and 2019, the number of children attending pre-school education increased by 6.9% and amounted to 7.64 million people. It is noted that this is primarily due to the surge in the birth rate that occurred in the 2010s. In addition, the range of educational services for preschoolers was expanded. Nevertheless, experts predict that by 2024 the number of children receiving preschool education will decrease to about 5.9million people, which is due to the decline in the birth rate in recent years.
In the 2000s, there was an increase in attention to preschool education from many states. China and Poland have traditionally had a detailed and centrally regulated curriculum. However, in the 2000s, countries began to move towards decentralization and diversity of education. For example, in Poland, teachers were able to choose between eight curricula recommended by the Ministry of Education. France has focused on language development, including learning a second language. Finland has moved the pre-school program for six-year-olds into the core curriculum for early childhood education and care from birth to age 6. In 2003, the Danish government presented a plan for working with preschoolers. Around the same time, similar actions were taken in Germany. That is, at the beginning of the 21st century, governments began to pay serious attention to the education of young children, as evidenced by the widespread introduction and change of curricula.
In recent years, in developed countries with high income, more than 50% of children under 3 years of age have been involved in the preschool education system . These states include Denmark, Iceland, Israel, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Norway.
In Turkey and Mexico, this figure is below 5%. Although the values vary greatly from country to country, since 2010 the total number of children involved has grown from 26% to 34% in 7 years. The growth is especially noticeable in European countries.
How and why is preschool education changing?
Preschool education is changing rapidly around the world, driven by both negative and positive trends. The latter include increased attention to early childhood development, an increase in the number of professional teachers, research to identify gaps in existing educational systems and improve curricula, and increased public and private funding.
An over-emphasis on literacy and math skills is seen as a negative factor, which negatively affects the balance of the approach to learning. Topics such as social development, emotional development, and professionalism are often ignored in universities and colleges. As a result, future teachers are not competent enough to work with children. The problem is the uneven distribution of priorities by parents, which is why the expansion of opportunities in preschool organizations does not receive proper support. In addition, educational programs adopted for reasons of expediency and efficiency deprive the child of the opportunity to explore the world around him independently and express his opinion.
On the basis of the conducted research, it is possible to draw conclusions about which factors most influence changes in the system of preschool education.
Demographic changes
They create an opportunity to achieve greater integration and social justice. In the United States, in recent years, the number of children who attend educational programs that differ culturally and linguistically has increased. Since the turn of the century, over a ten-year period, the number of Hispanics in the country has increased by 43%, the number of Asians has increased by the same 43%, the number of African Americans has increased by 12. 3%, and by 4.9% non-Hispanic white population. As a result, in ten years, the number of preschool children learning English in some parts of the country has increased by 300-400%.
In 2015, 48% of children under 6 were reported to be living in low-income families, 25% of whom were living on the edge of poverty. As a rule, such children began their education much later than their peers who grew up in wealthy families. The variety of structures of families with a child of preschool age has also increased. Since the beginning of the century, the number of unmarried mothers has increased, while the number of complete families has decreased. In addition, due to the variety of educational programs, the level of preparation of children starting school varied.
Thus, the dynamic nature of demographic change requires greater social inclusion and a more equitable distribution of resources.
Curriculum changes
Children’s time in kindergarten has traditionally been based on play and focused more on social learning than academic knowledge. Learning in a playful way satisfies the child’s natural curiosity without tiring him. Abstract and cognitive tasks related to mathematics and literacy, as a rule, are typical for teaching older children (from 7 years old). For a long time, the goal of teaching young children was more to enable them to love the process of learning itself, exploring the world around them and interacting with people, rather than academic learning as such. It was believed that, having begun to be interested in the world around them at an early age, a person receives a basis for understanding more complex scientific concepts. For example, caring for plants and taking care of pets, the child shows interest in nature, which further motivates him to study such subjects as biology, chemistry and physics. In addition, the role of the teacher in the process of preschool education was defined as allowing children to understand themselves, their environment, helping to create friendly relations. However, this concept of goals and methods of teaching young children has been challenged.
In the 2010s, there has been a trend towards fewer hours devoted to music and art and more academic training, especially mathematics and grammar. The decline in art education turned out to be quite long. In addition, according to statistics, only 61% of elementary schools in the United States organized excursions to museums, galleries, theaters. Thus, a significant part of children do not receive proper knowledge in the field of art. This negatively affects young children, as it is known that important concepts and moral values are better absorbed by the child through songs and dances. Therefore, attempts to reduce the mobility of children and force them to sit at their desks cannot lead to much success.
In general, the world is becoming more and more dynamic over time. Therefore, curricula should teach the child to solve problems and problems creatively and even be able to take risks.
Education should be oriented so that the child learns to love the very process of acquiring knowledge and skills. This is achieved by studying the interests of the child and choosing a curriculum that suits him. So the child immediately begins to study what he is interested in, and with age, interest can develop into serious scientific activity. Education in the arts should be one of the main directions in the preparation of young children.
Increasing research efforts
Funding for research related to the benefits of early childhood education has increased in recent years. As a result, numerous organizations, research centers and journals have appeared on the topic of early childhood education. The intensification of research has also contributed to the development of new quality training programs.
Teacher training
It is noted that in an environment where the population is becoming more multinational, it is much more difficult to provide quality training. The problem of their preparation is quite acute, since the learning process largely depends on this. Pre-school education institutions are, in fact, the first educators of children outside the home. These organizations are tasked with identifying the strengths of the child and unleashing his potential. For preschool children, education is often the first experience of interacting with people from different cultures, religions, languages, and families. It is important that faculty guide this interaction as the world is trending towards increasing demographic diversity. The experience of communicating with people of other nationalities at a younger age forms the attitude towards such people in adulthood. In addition, high-quality early education and care lays the foundation for children to develop ideas of freedom and democracy in everyday life and in the educational process itself.
Negative consequences of early childhood education
From the above, it becomes clear that preschool education is not just a useful addition to a child’s life, but a serious tool for his development. A properly structured curriculum gives children significant advantages over their peers and helps in adulthood. However, in some cases, the child faces tremendous pressure. Parents and teachers believe that they only make the child better by making him sit over textbooks for hours, and they believe that this is the only way to a personal “bright future”. In practice, such an attitude can deprive a child of a normal childhood and introduce a number of psychological problems into his life.
Research shows that early academic training pays off, as evidenced by subject-specific tests children take. However, the progress made at a younger age is most often erased within 1-3 years, and according to some studies, it is completely reversed. Moreover, it has been proven that an early academic load can cause long-term harm to a child in the areas of social and emotional development.
For example, at 19In the 1970s, a study was conducted in Germany, the purpose of which was to compare, in various ways, children whose learning is based on play practice with those who are undergoing academic training. Despite the initial successes of the second group, by the fourth grade the children showed significantly worse results than the representatives of the first group. In particular, reading and math skills were worse, and they were also less socially and emotionally adapted.
A similar study was conducted in the United States, focusing on African American children from poor families. As a result, it was found that those who attended academically-oriented preschools initially showed superiority over those whose learning was based on play. However, by the end of the fourth grade, the picture changed.
Children who received a play-based education performed better and scored higher in school.
Another large-scale experiment was carried out in the USA in 1967. In Michigan, 68 children from poor families were placed in one of three types of kindergartens: traditional (learning based on play), partially traditional (teaching included a more adult approach), “direct learning” (focused on reading, writing and mathematics). Initial results were similar to previous studies. The “direct learning” group showed achievements that soon faded away. However, when the participants were 15 and 23 years old, there were no significant differences in academic performance, but there was a significant difference in social and emotional characteristics. By age 15, children in the direct learning group had committed more than twice as much misconduct as those in the other two groups. In addition, at age 23, they were more likely to show signs of emotional distress, have disagreements with other people, and be less likely to be married. By this age 39% of the participants in the “direct learning” group were arrested for serious crimes, while in the other two groups this figure was 13.5% on average. Also, 19% of the participants in this group were prosecuted for stabbing, compared to 0% in the remaining groups.
Researchers attribute these findings to the fact that early learning experiences provide the foundation for later behavior. Those who in childhood learn to play with others, planning their activities and overcoming differences, turn out to be more responsible in relation to society. While children, whose preschool education is based primarily on academic performance, as adults, are set to achieve results and move forward. In the context of poverty, this often leads to conflicts with others and criminal activities. In addition, the type of preschool institution has an impact on the parents of the child. If education provides for an assessment scale, then parents want their children to stand out, to be the best. In the future, this attitude towards the child is only gaining momentum and boils down to the fact that he must achieve goals at any cost.
Traditionally, play activities have been one of the main activities in the life of a preschool child. However, now there is a tendency towards the gradual disappearance of the “yard culture”, which, in turn, leads to a decrease in the playing culture among children. The modern child has nowhere to play. He doesn’t play in the garden because he has to study there, he can’t play with his parents who are busy with work and other things. Older children study intensively, you can’t have fun with them either. It is argued that gaming activity is one of the stages of preparation for learning.
Therefore, with the disappearance of games from a child’s life, problems arise with the formation of motivation for learning. Parents, as a rule, do not think about this, since they consider preparing for school only as a set of skills .
They tend to demand results from the child and often try to make him “smarter” than the right age, as if for the future, without taking into account the fact that this requires a certain degree of maturity of the nervous system.
Teaching a child to read, write and count at an early preschool age leads to a load on the immature structures of the central nervous system, which adversely affects the first functional block of the brain, which has to work with excessive effort. As a result, the child will receive the desired skills, but at the same time, problems with sleep may begin, with the functioning of the endocrine system, he will more often encounter somatic diseases. It is also very likely that the child will become moody and overly excitable. At the age of 2-3 years, children do not have the motivation to learn to read or count, sitting at books for several hours a day, they want to play and explore the world. As you know, the presence of motivation is the key to success in any activity. Besides, it is doubtful that there is any sense in the torment of a small child in principle. Scientists say that at the age of 3 it takes 1-1.5 years to systematically learn to read, while at 5-6 years this process takes a month or two. A child’s productivity in the early preschool years is reinforced by motivations such as praise from a parent or teacher. Instructions imposed by adults do not allow him to develop self-control and self-organization. At school, such children again face a lack of motivation. They already know the material that is offered for study, so they do not feel the need to use search, heuristic activity.
Alisa Teplyakova is an example of a child with outstanding knowledge for her age. At the age of 8, the girl passed the Unified State Examination, and at 9 she already became a student at the Faculty of Psychology of Moscow State University (albeit on a commercial basis). It is not yet possible to judge how studying at the best university in the country will affect Alice, but there are reasons for concern. Even for people in their twenties, seminars, term papers, a session, slightly eccentric teachers are stressful, leading to depression, psychological problems, up to and including suicide. Here we are talking about a child who must go to secondary school. A university differs from a school not only in the level of complexity of the training program. Teachers, unlike teachers, try to find an individual approach to students to a lesser extent and build work, focusing more on their own comfort.
In addition, Alice may have problems with socialization. Classmates are eighteen-year-old guys who like to have fun after couples, go to nightclubs and kiss with the same young and beautiful. It is difficult to imagine the friendship of a nine-year-old girl and such a company due to the lack of common interests. Of course, you can not be friends with anyone and focus on your studies, but it is difficult for a person to limit his social circle only to his family. People remember their student years with warmth in their souls, thinking about how many new friends they met, how fun and carefree it was, despite all the hardships of studying.
But what can Alice remember? Satisfied ambitions of their parents who “hacked” the system, and painful adaptation to an age-inappropriate environment?
No one is saying that children shouldn’t strive for results, but it’s worth considering whether these achievements are worth a normal, happy childhood. Even if now it seems that the lack of communication does not harm the child in any way and the textbook on neurophysiology successfully replaces the teddy bear, then in the near future psychological problems will make themselves felt.
Exaggerated demands of parents in learning lead to deviations or delays in the development and maturation of nerve cells, which negatively affects the child both in the short and long term.
Conclusion
Pre-school education is an important step in a child’s life. At the age of 7, children actively grow and develop. It seems to many that it is not so important what happens to a child in early childhood, because when he grows up, everything will be different. But it is at this age that the most important foundations for the future life of the child are laid. Undoubtedly, one should not dismiss the child to elementary school and should not think that only games are enough for him without developing an interest in learning.
However, you need to approach the education of young children correctly so as not to harm their psyche and not instill an aversion to gaining knowledge for the rest of their lives.
Many parents want their children to be geniuses. On TV and in social networks, we often see how talented children at the age of 5 almost perfectly know three languages, solve differential equations and can recite all of Pushkin by heart. But is it really talent? Indeed, there are times when a child likes, for example, biology and he reads encyclopedias and reference books without stopping, and by the age of 6 he can name any plant from a picture on the Internet. However, this situation is very rare. Most often, parents force their children to sit at textbooks and study with tutors around the clock, when the rest of the children have not yet really learned to speak. Perhaps such people are driven by faith in the bright future of the child, or perhaps by the desire to assert themselves by raising a “brilliant child”. As practice shows, such children achieve success at an early age, win olympiads, enter top universities, but rarely succeed in the future. Most of them burn out, experience psychological difficulties and problems with socialization. They do not know anything but study, because they are used only to study, although many of them do not even understand why.
The child needs to be given attention at an early age and involved in the pre-school education system. But education should be focused primarily on instilling social skills in the child, teaching how to interact with other people and preparing for school. More doesn’t always mean better. Inadequately inflated ambitions of parents can ruin a growing person not only childhood, but also life.
Pros and cons of pre-school education
Most parents would agree that kindergarten is an important stage in their children’s lives, but some of them, surprisingly, allow themselves to disagree. According to the latest research, some parents would rather keep their little ones at home and shield them from the outside world for “a little longer.” Those who are not in favor of this opinion believe that preschool is a necessary opportunity for their children to grow both mentally and physically, in an independent environment.
Early childhood programs can prepare and provide the necessary foundation for the further education of children, and can also help in engaging them in age-appropriate experiences. Keeping a child away from home can be a daunting task for parents, but if they are working, it will be very difficult to be around the children every minute. In this case, a preschool may be considered a good option. This educational experience can help build a child’s emotional range and also help them learn at the same time. Parents can now breathe a sigh of relief as all preschools are sworn to provide a safe and secure environment. Read on to find out more about pluses and minuses of pre-school education .
Preschool education – Advantages and disadvantages
PLASS 0
Early socialization
Preschool institution is an excellent opportunity for children to chat with other children of their age, thereby helping them to build social skills for later years. At an early stage, if parents or teachers notice that the child is not very sociable or tends to remain reclusive, certain solutions and problems can be considered that can be solved before it is too late. In this way, children engage, learn to speak and play together with others while making friends and building relationships. This is an important social component for children as they can create their own little children’s networks.
Independent relationship
It can be extremely painful for children to leave their parents first, or vice versa. But eventually, the child begins to adapt to the new environment and begins to develop relationships with other people, not just parents, such as teachers and even other children. This is where children learn and build their own contacts, as well as learn to play and communicate friendly with others in a structured environment. Pre-school education provides a self-development environment for the growth of children socially, which ultimately culminates in an independent character from the very beginning.
Enriching learning and entertainment
Preschool education has more opportunities for the baby. The academic environment is not very demanding for young children, and this is all a stepping stone that can help children to activate and lay a solid foundation for the future “in school mode”. Pre-school education is a fun learning period for children and for parents to build a solid foundation for their child’s future in scholastic endeavors.
Rescue for parents
For working parents, leaving babies in preschools becomes a necessity. Some parents find it very difficult to leave their child in the care of a nanny or a day centre. In this case, preschools are lifesavers who help parents by taking on their responsibility and also providing their children with a basic education.
Cons
Expenses for preschool
A few preschools can be very expensive, and are responsible, in most cases, for a gaping hole in parent’s bank accounts. This is the main reason why some parents choose to keep their children at home to avoid unnecessary expenses. The soaring preschool fee is one of the main reasons why parents prefer a home tutor for their children in the early years. However, they forget to take into account the fact that pre-schools teach children about other aspects such as sharing and self-confidence. Therefore, it is always advisable to research the most affordable options, in terms of quality of education and affordability.
Unsafe environment
Children spend a significant amount of time in preschool , ranging from 5 to 8 hours. This can be dangerous in terms of long hours away from home, conflicts between children over toys, without parental supervision, and in terms of objects or materials that children have to deal with while away from home. These are some of the questions parents should think about before deciding whether or not they should give their child away at preschool educational institution . While most preschools provide a safe environment, parents should do thorough research about claims before making a final decision.
Health effects
Children aged 3 and 4 do not adapt well to new conditions than those in which they were brought up. With the increase in the number of children entering preschool educational institutions , there is also an increase in the level of diseases that spreads from one child to another. After all, what does a 3- or 4-year-old child know about hygiene? Sharing toys, having lunch together, or even just playing with their classmates can make children sick.
The pain of separation
More than any other aspect, parents find it emotionally ordeal to be separated from their child, it is a very stressful period for them. The child was also suddenly faced with a new environment without the protection or shield of the parents. As a result, parents get an emotional breakdown, and children, in most cases, cry when they stay at preschool educational institution .
Less attention
All young children require attention from early childhood, and in early childhood programs this is a more distant possibility. Many children who need to be cared for, teachers or caregivers find it increasingly difficult to provide one-on-one attention to children. In this case, teachers can give less attention to each child, giving less room for the children to grow individually.
The sooner the child is placed in pre-school educational institution , the easier will be the adaptation for the child and parents. Early childhood education is not only fun and games, but also an important aspect in terms of academic and social development. Thus, parents have the opportunity to ask the right questions and conduct detailed research, evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of preschool education before leaving their children alone. This, in the end, will help to make the right choice, which can make a break or a more distant future of the educational experience for children.
Preschool education in Russia | An article in the collection of the international scientific conference
Preschool education in Russia, namely, the situation related to preschool education in Russia can be called a crisis.
I believe that the main of the first problems is the general availability of preschool education, which is currently not carried out in this way. The growth in the number of places in preschool educational institutions catastrophically lags behind the growth in the number of children. As we remember, the period of decline in the birth rate fell on 1991 years [1]. At that time, many kindergarten buildings were transferred on long-term lease and at full disposal to other departments or non-departmental organizations, which led to the fact that at the present time we have to look for ways to provide places in preschool educational institutions for all needy children of preschool age. According to statistics, the reduction in the coverage of children by the preschool education system in Russia amounted to from 70% to 50%. Such a socio-economic situation forces us to set new tasks for the system of preschool education. Children entering school today have different starting opportunities, as almost half of them did not attend kindergarten and did not master educational programs. Most children come to the first grade completely unprepared, so it can be difficult for them to take a new position as a student. The school has different (relative to kindergarten) rules, new requirements are imposed on the child, expectations appear – the child is not ready for all this. First of all, the children themselves, as well as their parents and teachers, “suffer” from this.
And what does kindergarten give to the child? The main advantage of the preschool educational institution is the presence of a children’s community, thanks to which a space for the child’s social experience is created. Only in the conditions of a children’s community does a child know himself in comparison with others, appropriate ways of communication and interaction that are adequate to various situations, and overcome his inherent egocentrism. “Children must certainly be happy, because childhood? – the most wonderful time. The rest of life is only a retribution for this short-lived bliss” – Pavel Krusanov (“Dead language”) [6, p. 23].
Preschool education in Russia – ensuring the intellectual, personal and physical development of a child of preschool age from 2 to 7 years. The task of preschool education is to convey to the child the basic foundations of culture and the rules of behavior in society, as well as intellectual and aesthetic education.
Kindergarten is the first social institution that teaches children to live in society. It is in the kindergarten that the first independent contacts of the child with the people around him take place, here he learns to communicate and interact. Communication with peers allows the child to quickly master new skills and acquire new knowledge, since the effect of imitation at an early age is very strong. Successful adaptation in a kindergarten or a preschool education center is facilitated by educators, whose goal is to help the child in any difficult situation.
It has long been noted that “home” children who did not attend children’s educational institutions often experience difficulties with adaptation in the school community. It is more difficult for them to start school than for kindergarten graduates, as they do not have sufficient communication skills. In addition, pre-school education in kindergarten teaches the child volitional behavior, the ability to find compromises between their desires and the desires of others. The child learns to protect his interests without prejudice to the interests of others. Also in kindergarten, children learn the basics of self-regulation. That is, the child learns to independently choose an occupation for himself and devote a certain amount of time to the chosen business. It is this skill that becomes the basis for the organization of the child at home and (in the future) at school. It is also extremely important that in kindergarten these qualities are formed naturally in the process of play, which is an integral part of the educational process. It is during the games that the basic skills of independence, the ability to contact and negotiate are formed.
Preschool education in kindergarten meets the developmental and social needs of the child. Education at home, of course, is able to provide the child with the development of all self-care skills and the assimilation of the knowledge necessary to prepare for school, but it is not able to teach the child to live in a team. While it is the ability to find a common language with the people around is the key to a person’s success in adulthood.
Modern preschool education is focused on the development of the child’s personal qualities. Being in a group of peers allows the child to learn how to communicate, defend their opinions and their interests, and also take into account the interests and opinions of others. Children form an idea of the social structure, because it is in the kindergarten that the first role-playing games take place, for example, “daughter-mothers”.
Pre-school education in kindergarten allows the child to form his own idea of the world around him and his place in it. The child learns to evaluate his abilities and capabilities by comparing himself with his peers. That is, he develops an adequate self-perception. In addition to the communicative development of the child, the goals of preschool education include mental, moral, aesthetic and physical development. All these components are inseparable conditions for the formation of a full-fledged personality. Drawing, creating crafts and applications, designing, music and physical education are the minimum set that any kindergarten is ready to offer.
At present, the preschool system itself has also changed. The differentiation of preschool educational institutions by types and categories has been introduced. To the previously existing only type – “kindergarten” new ones were added – a kindergarten with priority implementation of the intellectual or artistic, aesthetic, or physical development of pupils, a kindergarten for children with disabilities in physical and mental development, care and rehabilitation, a kindergarten-development center child and others [5, p 7] And there are also various additional circles for preschool education. On the one hand, it is good that at least some conditions are being created for preschoolers, and it also allows parents to choose an educational institution that meets their needs, on the other hand, most of these types do not meet the patterns of child development. And also the minus of such additional institutions is that not every parent can overpower them financially, because such institutions charge more than in kindergartens. These additional institutions provide training for only 2-3 hours several times a week, and the child spends almost 12 hours in kindergarten. The specifics of education in a preschool institution is that, unlike additional ones, it is carried out throughout the day and does not come down only to training sessions (it is necessary to teach the child to wash their hands, eat properly, behave politely in different situations, be neat, play and cooperate with other children and much more). Therefore, it is practically impossible to reduce the educational services of preschool institutions to 3-4 hours.
The problem of general accessibility of preschool education for all categories of citizens should also be addressed today through the use of internal reserves of the education system, including the development of various forms of preschool education, as well as a more flexible system of regimes for children in preschool educational institutions.
It should be noted that the network of short stay groups is developing not in spite of and not instead of traditional full-time preschool institutions, but together with them. Along with the traditional operating modes of preschool educational institutions (12-hour and round-the-clock modes of stay for children), since 2000, 10-hour and 14-hour modes have also been used (in many cases, the 14-hour mode is most preferable for parents and is less expensive than round the clock) []. This makes it possible to increase the availability of preschool education for various categories of citizens.
In addition, at present, in parallel with the development of traditional forms of preschool education, new models are being tested: preschool groups based on general education institutions, preschool groups based on additional education institutions, as well as the systematic education of preschool children in the context of family education.
Thus, we can conclude that the effectiveness of the development of a network of educational institutions will be achieved only if the approach to the development process is integrated.
It is much more expedient that all public preschool institutions correspond to the same “good” category, which ensures the full-fledged upbringing and development of children. And parents with special needs (although this is not a fact that this is good for the child) could use the services of non-state preschool institutions. The only problem is that these institutions, as a rule, need special control from the state (this is evidenced, for example, by the experience of France, where such control is the most important task of the inspection service in education).
In view of the foregoing, as well as the fact that recently there has been a virtually total “municipalization” of preschool education institutions (massive transition of kindergartens from various departments to municipal ownership), the solution to the issues of survival, functioning and development of the preschool education system depends at present mainly from local governments.
It is the local governments in the municipality (city, district) that must create certain organizational and pedagogical conditions that will allow the municipal system of preschool education to get out of the crisis and move into a state of normal, stable functioning and development.

Almost like at home: the quality of pre-school education is improving in Russia: trends in 2022
According to Rosstat, the average availability of kindergartens in Russia is 99. 2%. At the same time, practice shows that preschool children from 3 to 7 years old have to wait for their turn in kindergarten for about 8.5 months. In 2022, more than 78 thousand small residents of Kazan visit kindergartens. But not all parents managed to arrange a child in a municipal preschool institution. Therefore, in the cities of Russia and the capital of Tatarstan, there is a growing demand for private kindergartens, where each child has an individual approach. We talked with Ivan Sorokin, the owner of the Smile Fish network of private kindergartens, about the benefits for children and their parents, as well as about current trends in this area.
In fact, the field of preschool education is the most responsible and vulnerable area in the entire process of teaching children and adolescents. There is not enough competence of teachers, as in universities, their authority, as in school. In kindergarten, every little thing is important: not only high-quality nutrition and a reliable level of safety, but also an individual approach to each child. After all, it is at the very young age – from 3 to 5 years – that the personality and character of children are formed, which are important to preserve without using a stereotyped approach to them. Unfortunately, the pandemic has caused the closure of many private kindergartens. In 2021, their share was only 5.4% of all preschool institutions, which is 0.6% less than in 2019year.
Individual approach to each child
The Smile Fish network was less affected by the pandemic, as we continued to work during the restrictions in duty groups due to smaller occupancy: 8 preschool children in a group, unlike municipal institutions, where their number reaches 20-25 people. To some extent, the reduction in the number of private kindergartens has improved the quality of services provided in our network. A large number of qualified teachers left without work allowed us to support one of the main trends in 2022 in preschool education – an individual approach to children, since each of our groups has three educators.
This is the main advantage of private kindergartens, because there is no “solo pedagogy”, when an adult leads the child all the time, controlling his behavior within the schedule. On the contrary, the activity of a preschooler as a full-fledged participant in the educational process is brought to the fore. For this, game mechanisms are used when learning English or reading. Also, when raising a child, as an individual in interactive activities, respect for parents, responsibility for one’s actions, and the ability to communicate with peers are instilled.
This approach is appreciated both by the pupils of our network’s preschool institutions and their parents: while playing, children gain the freedom and independence of an adult, but at the same time they also learn.
Not only theory, but also practice
The second trend in early childhood education is not only to give theoretical knowledge, but also to teach how to apply it in practice: theater performances in basic English or playing little scientists using various sets of experiences and scientific experiments for children, passing quests, where you need to demonstrate not only dexterity and flexibility, but also erudition.
But even here it is important to take into account the individuality of each child: not every preschooler dreams of becoming a doctor or an astronaut. In today’s unstable and ambiguous world, we cannot predict what professions will be in demand in the future, so we rely on skills and soft skills: 4K – critical thinking, creativity, communication skills, teamwork, as well as curiosity, leadership, perseverance and responsibility .
Presenting online content well
This is also a necessary component of the pre-school education program. Now we can’t get away from digital technologies, virtual and augmented realities. It is necessary to teach children to use the global network correctly and effectively for their development. According to recent studies, 27% of schoolchildren spend at least 8 hours a day using various gadgets. Children from 3 to 7 years old are unlikely to escape this fate, so the task of teachers in our kindergartens is to provide useful and exciting online content, to teach how to distinguish it from a mountain of Internet garbage. This is exactly what educators of 80 operating kindergartens across Russia are now implementing and will be doing in 11 kindergartens that are still at the opening stage.
Flexibility in interaction with children and parents
Another advantage of private preschools is flexibility in all matters. Schedule – full day babysitting or half, meals taking into account the nutritional characteristics of children, such as allergies. In addition, much attention is paid to the premises in which private kindergartens are set up. Usually these are apartments on the first floors of residential buildings. At the same time, the kindergarten does not interfere with the neighbors: no one is in the premises before 8 am and after 7 pm. It is obligatory to have an intra-house playground, and in an apartment – four square meters per child. This is also the main difference from municipal preschool institutions, where the area is calculated based on three meters squared for each pupil. Thus, moving freely and comfortably, receiving balanced healthy nutrition and maximum care from teachers, the child in kindergarten feels at home.

Preschool and Primary School STEM Education Program
Explanatory note
The proposed program “STEM-EDUCATION OF CHILDREN OF PRESCHOOL AND PRIMARY SCHOOL AGE” is a partial modular program of preschool education aimed at developing intellectual abilities in the process of cognitive activity and involvement in scientific and technical creativity.
The program can also be successfully used in extracurricular activities within the framework of the main educational program of primary general education, and each of its sections – an educational module – can be used as an independent unit in the system of additional education.
The Law “On Education in the Russian Federation”, the federal state educational standard for preschool education, the state program of the Russian Federation “Development of Education” for 2018-2025 and the “Strategy for the Development of Education until 2025” set new targets for the development of the education system in the Russian Federation: creation mechanisms for its sustainable development, ensuring compliance with the challenges of the 21st century, the requirements of the innovative development of the economy, the modern needs of society and every citizen.
One of the trends in the development of modern education is its socio-cultural modernization. The focus of the methodology of socio-cultural construction of education as the leading social activity of society is the formation of civic identity, the formation of civil society, the strengthening of Russian statehood; development of individuality and competitiveness of the individual in a constantly changing world.
The concept of modern education is based on humanistic principles of upbringing, which are based on the theory of “child-centrism” – the absolute value of childhood, when the idea of childhood should be at the center of any government decisions and political programs.
Hence the special status of preschool and primary levels of education, since it is during this period that the fundamental components of the formation of the child’s personality and the foundations of cognitive development are laid.
GEF DO assumes the formation of cognitive interests and actions of preschoolers in various types of activities, and the primary education standard ensures the recognition of the decisive role of the content of education, ways of organizing educational activities and interaction of participants in the educational process to achieve the goals of personal, social and cognitive development of younger students.
Thus, at the present stage of development of education for children of preschool and primary school age, the emphasis is shifted to the development of the personality of the child in all its diversity: curiosity, purposefulness, independence, responsibility, creativity, ensuring successful socialization of the younger generation, increasing the competitiveness of the individual and, as a result , society and the state.
Modern education is more and more focused on the formation of key personal competencies, that is, skills directly related to the experience of their application in practical activities, which allow students to achieve results in uncertain, problematic situations, to solve problems independently or in cooperation with others, are aimed to improve the skills to operate with knowledge, to develop the intellectual abilities of children.
Currently, there is a wide variety of interpretations of the terms “intelligence” and “intellectual abilities” (G. Gardner, M. A. Kholodnaya, N. N. Moiseev). The most common is the concept of intelligence as “the ability to carry out the process of cognition and to effectively solve problems, the ability to plan, organize and control one’s actions to achieve the goal.”
Essential for understanding the intellect and intellectual abilities are such personality traits as the desire for new knowledge and deep understanding of everything that aroused interest; the ability to use existing experience and separate the main from the secondary; logic, criticality, breadth and creativity of thinking; the ability to generalize, abstract and find patterns; learnability.
In today’s world, the problem of becoming a creative person who is able to independently replenish knowledge, extract useful things, and realize their own goals and values in life is very relevant. This can be achieved through cognitive research activities, since the child’s need for new experiences underlies the emergence and development of inexhaustible research activity aimed at understanding the world around. In the presented program, the emphasis is placed on cognitive research activities, which are aimed at obtaining new and objective knowledge.
One of the significant areas of cognitive research activity is children’s scientific and technical creativity, and one of the most innovative areas in this area is educational robotics, which combines classical approaches to studying the basics of technology and information modeling, programming, and information technology.
The comprehensive program “Development of educational robotics and continuous IT education in the Russian Federation” (No. 172-R of 01.10.2014) defined a number of tasks focused on preschool and primary levels of education. Among them:
popularization of educational robotics and scientific and technical creativity as forms of leisure activities for students of preschool, general and additional education organizations;
technical equipment of organizations of preschool, general and additional education for children, implementing programs to study the basics of robotics, mechatronics, IT and scientific and technical creativity of youth;
improvement of the system of self-study in the implementation of programs of preschool, general and additional education for children;
improving the efficiency of using interactive technologies and modern technical teaching aids;
improving the mechanisms of public-private partnership in the system of preschool, general and additional education.
These tasks are designed to develop in the child such structural elements of information competence as the formation of information processing processes; formation of motivational motives and value orientations; understanding of the principles of operation, capabilities and limitations of technical devices designed for automated search and processing of information; communication skills, the ability to communicate; ability to analyze their own activities.
The essence of scientific and technical creativity lies in the application of scientific achievements to create technical products that meet specified requirements. The basic method of technical creativity is design, that is, the creation of a new one from a set of already existing, ready-made elements, although recently elements of design activity have been introduced into technical creativity.
There is a technological revolution going on right now. High-tech products and innovative technologies are becoming an integral part of modern society. If in developed countries there are many regional and national projects to attract children to scientific and technical creativity, to increase its attractiveness and status, then in our country with the disappearance of the system of circles of young technicians, modellers and designers, children’s technical creativity has declined. At present, the system of technical creativity of children of preschool and primary school age is being revived, taking into account the requirements of the time. There are investments in the creation of children’s technology parks. New state educational standards require the introduction of modern technologies in the educational process. However, the designation of the problem does not say anything about how exactly the technical creativity of preschoolers and younger schoolchildren should develop.
An attempt to develop intellectual abilities in regulated classes in kindergarten and lessons in elementary school is ineffective, since higher levels of competencies require independence, responsibility in solving non-standard tasks, which is poorly achievable within the traditional model of education. Only a fundamentally new construction of the educational environment, an integral part of which is the developing object-spatial environment, can answer this challenge.
Therefore, the purpose of this partial modular educational program “STEM education of children of preschool and primary school age” is to develop the intellectual abilities of children of preschool and primary school age by means of STEM education.
If you decipher this abbreviation, you get the following: S – science, T – technology, E – engineering, M – mathematics: natural sciences, technology, engineering, mathematics.
That is why today the STEM system is developing as one of the main trends. STEM education is based on the application of an interdisciplinary and applied approach, as well as the integration of all four disciplines into a single scheme.
From the address of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin to the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation on March 1, 2018: “Today, knowledge, technology, and competencies are the most important competitive advantage. This is the key to a real breakthrough, to improving the quality of life. In the shortest possible time, we need to develop an advanced legislative framework, remove all barriers to the development and widespread use of robotics, artificial intelligence, unmanned vehicles, e-commerce, and big data processing technologies.” These words actualize STEM education and emphasize its advantages, namely:
An integrated approach to solving modern problems based on the interpenetration of various areas of natural sciences, engineering creativity, mathematics, digital technologies, etc. This integration is based on the project method based on cognitive and artistic search and having a specific real product in as a result of activity.
Adaptation of children, starting from preschool age, to the modern educational environment at all levels of education. In the context of the continuity of all levels of the educational system of the Russian Federation, all components of the educational environment – content, technology, subject-spatial content, material and technical support – are successive in the logic of age-related opportunities and content complication.
The development of intellectual abilities in the process of cognitive research activities and involvement in scientific and technical creativity is aimed at developing not only competencies specific to these types of activities, but also a comfortable sense of self in the modern world, creating conditions for a high quality of life in the future.
The development of critical thinking is seen as a three-stage process aimed at the formation of:
skills to get the necessary information;
skills to analyze it;
skills to apply the information received in practice.
The formation of teamwork skills in synthesis with the individualization of education lies in the ability to:
combine individual intelligent algorithms to achieve common goals;
negotiate, ask questions correctly, argue with logically sound facts, etc.,
that is, it forms a culture of discussion and the skill of “sublimated conclusion”. The overall positive result forms self-confidence and a sense of teamwork efficiency.
In addition, in the process of collective activity, a value attitude is brought up both to the process and to the results of labor, both of the general and of each participant.
Primary propaedeutics of a number of professions and specialties of the 21st century, including: specialists in the field of information technology, including information security, who are able to work with a large amount of operational information; analysts, engineers and operators of electronic computing systems; specialists of engineering industries; specialists in the field of robotics, automation, nuclear physics, radiochemistry, safety and non-proliferation of nuclear materials; military professions where technical knowledge from different areas is required.
Development of interest in technical creativity. STEM education is designed to revive the system of sections and circles of “young technicians”, based on the natural interest of children in technical design and modeling.
It is important that these types of activities are based on the child’s research experience acquired in kindergarten, so that the natural-scientific picture of the world is formed on the basis of a system-activity approach and is based on knowledge gained through experimentation.
In this program, the child explores the world around him through play and experimentation with objects of animate and inanimate nature. Methodological materials provide a link between living beings and robots, motivating the child to move from the game and children’s experiment through design and exciting technical and artistic creativity to the design and creation of robots – models resembling objects of the living world. The basics of programming and the use of sensors lead the child to desire to endow these creatures with sight, hearing and logic. This is a very exciting process that can become a motivational core until graduation and getting your favorite specialty: engineer, programmer, designer, scientist.
STEM thus becomes an addition to the compulsory part of the main educational program (BEP). In the main educational program for preschoolers, especially in the part developed by the participants in educational relations, the demanded content is mobile and dynamically implemented, which meets the interests and priorities of the modern preschooler.
STEM programs for elementary school students are focused on increasing their interest in regular lessons, where they receive basic knowledge from various fields of science and technology. In extracurricular activities, students apply the knowledge they have already acquired and supplement it with the skills obtained in experimental practice.
Formation of the foundations of security, both one’s own (in the process of interaction with the outside world) and the security of the environment, which directly depends on human activity, understanding technocratic risks, the impact of technological development on the environment and the state of the planet as a whole. Particularly relevant is the question of the possible impact of robotization on the fate of mankind.
Creation of conditions for the identification and further support of gifted children with extraordinary thinking and showing special abilities and desire for scientific and technical creativity.
Note that these advantages provide amplification of child development, “a necessary condition for the versatile upbringing of the child” (AV Zaporozhets). The significance of the richness of opportunities in the early stages of child development is especially great. This is a means of overcoming his one-sidedness, revealing inclinations and abilities. In accordance with the theory of A. V. Zaporozhets, the STEM education program involves the maximum enrichment of specific forms of children’s activities: games, cognitive research, design, artistic and aesthetic, and also provides the opportunity for children to communicate productively with each other, with teachers and parents for a full-fledged development of the intellectual abilities of each child.
This partial modular program “STEM-EDUCATION OF PRESCHOOL AND PRIMARY SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN” determines the content and organization of the educational process for preschool children in the studio-circle, and junior school – in extracurricular activities. This content can also supplement the mandatory part of the main general education program.
Structurally partial modular program “STEM-EDUCATION OF CHILDREN OF PRESCHOOL AND PRIMARY SCHOOL AGE” is presented in the integration of educational modules indicated on the diagram.
Implementation of educational modules in the priority activities of children of preschool and primary school age
Game.
Design.
Cognitive research activity.
Educational activities.
Various types of artistic and creative activities.
Mastering XX Technology! century (elements of programming and digital technologies).
Each module is aimed at solving specific tasks, which, with their complex solution, ensure the implementation of the goals of STEM education: the development of intellectual abilities in the process of cognitive research activities and the involvement of preschool and primary school children in scientific and technical creativity.
The Program provides conditions for the development of intellectual abilities in accordance with the age and individual characteristics of the child. Starting with sensory perception through visual-figurative and verbal-logical thinking (“F. Froebel’s didactic system”, “Mathematical development”, “Experimenting with animate and inanimate nature”), the prerequisites are created for the scientific and technical creativity of children, during which they receive and apply the knowledge of algorithmization, design and programming and conduct project activities (“LEGO-construction”, “Animation studio “I create the world”, “Robotics”).
The activity of an adult is aimed at ensuring that the child accepts the general scheme of action, feels the connection between educational modules, the meaning of each link in the general system of action, the hierarchy of secondary and main goals. In this case, the child acquires the ability to act “in the mind”, which is the most important condition for the development of intellectual abilities.
The content of each module is divided into two parts: for preschool children and for younger students. Within each part, the content is differentiated, taking into account the specifics of the educational module and the age of the pupils.
Achievement of the set goals is carried out in activities specific for children of this age, such as playing, designing, cognitive and research activities (including scientific and technical creativity), various types of artistic and creative activities (design, creating cartoons, etc.) . These types of activities organically include the development of technologies of the XXI century (elements of programming and digital technologies).

advantages and disadvantages, free education
A few years ago I came to study in China, and this country fell in love with me. So I decided to stay in it. Many Russian students study here, and many Russian families with children live here. And all of them have the opportunity to send their children to school and kindergarten. Recently, Russia has been actively maintaining economic ties with China, making it quite easy for Russians to come here to study. And in this article I will tell you how to do it.
Now the country’s authorities have built a clear system of education, starting with preschool education. And it is strictly controlled by them. Among its main advantages are the following:
Affordable cost of education Basically, it is equal in cost to Russian universities, and sometimes it can be even lower.
Low cost accommodation . Students do not have to spend a lot of money on food and housing. Therefore, additional costs are a small item of expenditure.
Scholarship opportunity . In this country, there are a number of scholarships that foreign students can receive.
Accommodation in comfortable hostels that cannot be compared with the level of Russian hostels . Here you can find single rooms for accommodation. Almost all hostels have their own gym and dining room. Therefore, students are provided with all the conditions necessary for a comfortable life in a foreign country.
Job opportunity . The state allows students to take temporary jobs. Therefore, most of them find a job in order to have extra money. It is especially easy to find an employer in large cities.
Employment after graduation . Almost all graduates find jobs. At the same time, they are equally well received in international and Chinese companies. And the Chinese themselves consider it prestigious to employ a European. And this is beneficial for them, because they all have knowledge of the English language, which means they can be useful in negotiations with foreign contractors.
As the main serious disadvantage, I can only cite the need to learn Chinese. It is really difficult to write and read hieroglyphs. But living in China for a long time, you still learn how to speak it with the locals.
China’s education system
The government annually sponsors China’s education system, so a very high-quality training of specialists in various fields is now being carried out here. The training system itself is represented by the following levels:
Preschools that help children get ready for school.
Primary school education . At this stage, children are taught to read and write, as well as develop their horizons.
Secondary education . It is considered mandatory, so all Chinese receive it.
Second degree education . At this stage, a teenager can already decide on his future profession.
Higher education . It allows you to become a highly paid specialist in the chosen industry.
I came here to get higher education. And she met many Russian families who moved to live in China, and their children continued their education in Chinese schools. It is now enough for Russians to simply get a higher education in China, as well as arrange their children in a regular school.
Pre-school education
The Chinese begin to accept children in kindergartens only from 3 years old, as they believe that only by this time the child is emotionally mature for learning. And all children under 3 years of age are brought up in a family. All kindergartens are provided to children free of charge, as they are completely state-owned. There are a small number of private gardens, but they do not differ significantly from the public ones, so few children go to them.
Since childhood, the Chinese teach children to know their personality and help shape their character. Education is mainly done in the form of a game. In the same way, children are presented with information about the world around them.
School
Children come here when they are 6 years old. The initial stage of education is the development of the general outlook of the child. He also learns to read and write here.
Secondary education is represented by two degrees. And each of them has a certain technique. It begins to receive after reaching the age of 13. At this stage of education, the main subjects become: chemistry and physics, as well as special attention is paid to foreign languages, geography.
At the transition to the second level, teenagers already have to choose where they will enter. There is a choice of several types of institutions:
professional schools , where students learn the specifics of various professions;
secondary specialized institutions , they continue training for various types of professions;
technical schools , they begin to teach the basics of certain professions.
Here teenagers are helped to choose their future specialization. Education here lasts from 16 years and lasts 3 years. After completing their studies, each graduate receives a certificate. With it, he can enter the university corresponding to the chosen specialization in order to become a specialist in this direction.
Higher education
This stage of education is given the most attention, since the level and quality of training of future specialists depends on higher education. Universities receive the largest amount of public investment.
Education starts here in the fall, just like in Russia. But documents for admission must be submitted in February, because the applicant will need time to prepare for the upcoming studies. Many universities do not require entrance examinations, and the competition is arranged according to grades in the school certificate. Upon admission, you will also need a certificate confirming sufficient knowledge of the English language.
An applicant can choose a Chinese study program, but most foreigners prefer not to complicate their lives and study in English.
Many universities test English knowledge upon admission to them, regardless of the presence of a special certificate. And these tests are much more difficult than those that are required to pass to obtain a certificate.
Higher education is represented by 3 scientific degrees, as in Europe:
Bachelor’s degree , this degree is granted after passing the minimum compulsory education for 5 years. An important condition is admission here until the age of 25. After this period, higher education will not work.
Master. For admission, you will need to have 2 letters of recommendation. They must be issued by any 2 professors with whom you previously studied. Obtaining a master’s degree is possible only with knowledge of Chinese. You can enter here only if you successfully pass the exams. The duration of study does not exceed 3 years. It also has an age limit of 40 years.
Doctorate . You can get it only with a master’s degree. In addition, you will need to provide 3 letters of recommendation. They must be obtained from the professors who taught you in the master’s program. You will need excellent knowledge of Chinese. The total period of study will be from 1 to 3 years. It directly depends on the future profession. You can also enter here until the age of 40.
There are no exceptions for international applicants. Therefore, if you plan to get higher scientific degrees, you will have to carefully study the Chinese language.
In my personal experience, most international students are content with a bachelor’s degree. This diploma allows you to find a highly paid job due to good knowledge of the English language. The Chinese take European people to work with great pleasure, as it is considered prestigious, and also brings success to the company. At least they believe it.
Free education
One of the main advantages of studying in this country is the opportunity to receive free education. There are many different programs in China that allow students to offset their tuition costs. In itself, higher education for foreigners is paid. Therefore, in any case, you will have to pay the full cost of training specified in the contract. But then students can prove themselves in their studies and qualify for a good scholarship. There are 4 types of payments to students:
Government, it provides for payments from the state budget.
Confucius Scholarship – paid only at Confucius universities. And only especially distinguished students in knowledge of the Chinese language can get it.
Mayor’s, they are paid from the budget of the city where the university is located.
University, appointed by the universities themselves and paid from the fund of the university itself.
Scholarships are awarded for one academic year. In the future, a competition is again held among students and a scholarship is awarded to the best.
When I was a student, in my fourth year I was awarded a university scholarship. Its size directly depends on the number of students studying at the university and the cost of education in it. Since the budget of the university consists of these funds.
