Children need care that keeps them safe, healthy, and learning.
And you need a child care provider that supports you as your child’s most important teacher and works with you to ensure your child’s healthy development and learning.
When you have peace of mind that your child is safe, happy, and learning, you can focus on your work and providing for your family.
There are many types of child care to choose from, and it is important to find a provider that fits the needs of your child and your family. When choosing a child care provider, there are many factors to consider.
This section provides important information about different kinds of child care programs, including how different types of programs are regulated.
You will also find some tips and tools to help make your child care choice easier.
If you have questions or want to talk with someone about the types of child care available in your community, there are state and local agencies that can help you. They can provide additional information to help you make the best choice for your child.
You can select any of the agency types below to find more information about these services in your state. Once you select one of the agencies below, select your state under the “Get Child Care Resources”. You will then see a variety of child care related resources including information about finding quality child care and financial assistance for families.
Child care resource and referral (CCR&R) agencies: CCR&R agencies can help you by phone, in person, online, or via email. Most of these agencies also have websites with child care information and resources.
Child care licensing agencies: Licensing agencies set basic rules that must be followed to legally run a child care program. The purpose of these basic licensing regulations is to help protect the health and safety of children in child care. When states set these rules, they include different rules for different kinds of child care programs, such as child care centers and family child care homes. Here are some examples of topics covered by basic licensing regulations:
Safety in the building and physical environment
The number of children and child care providers on site
Preventing the spread of infectious diseases
Staff qualifications and training
Not all child care providers are required to be licensed, so it is important to check to see if the child care program you are considering is licensed.
The requirements for licensing vary across states and there are many different kinds of programs that may not be required to be licensed. You may not be able to tell if a provider is licensed just by visiting or talking to with the provider. Ask to see a license and check with the agency that is responsible for child care licensing in your state.
Child care assistance agencies: If you need help paying for child care, assistance may be available. Each state has an agency that is responsible for a child care assistance program that helps low-income families pay for child care. Each state has its own guidelines for who is eligible for assistance. These agencies may also help you learn about child care options in your state and local area.
Requirements and quality standards for child care programs: Child care requirements can be very confusing, and there are many different types of requirements to consider.
First, States have several types of requirements that child care providers must meet in order to operate legally. These may be called licensing, certification, or registration requirements. These requirements outline what providers must do to operate legally and what types of basic requirements must be met.
In addition, there are often requirements that providers must meet in order to receive public funding. There are many sources of public funding, but two of the biggest are Head Start and the Child Care and Development Fund. If you need assistance with child care, these programs may be able to help you with free or low-cost care and early education. Even if you don’t need assistance, you may end up choosing a child care program that receives public funding, so your program may be required to follow these requirements. Click here to learn more about child care financial assistance.
Finally, many states have additional child care quality standards. These types of quality standards are often part of a state or community quality rating and improvement system (QRIS). These quality rating and improvement systems award child care programs with stars or other symbols for rating levels to indicate higher quality. Looking for a higher rating is a great way to find high quality care. Check to see if your state operates a quality rating and improvement system and if the providers you are considering are part of it. Click here to learn more about what is available in your state.
Quality standards such as those included in licensing and QRIS reflect what child care programs should be doing to provide safe, legal, and effective care and early learning services for your family. To learn more about what you should look for and questions you should ask when you are looking for a high-quality program use this tool.

Kats Dance Centre & Performing Arts – Where you learn to dance and join a family!
At KDCPA we take our roles as mentors and teachers in your child’s life very seriously. It is our objective to inspire apassion for the art of dance in every child who passes through our doors. In the process, we strive to set the right example and help your child (and you) create memories that will last a lifetime.
For 35 years KDCPA has been committed to providing dance and performing arts classes to enhance the overall development of a child. We provide a safe and child-centered environment to encourage, and help our students explore the art of dance with qualified, nurturing teachers and staff.
We believe that dance and the performing arts promote creativity, self-confidence, focus, empowerment, healthy mind & body, positive self image, improves coordination skills, and give children the freedom to express themselves through movement.
KDCPA is very family oriented and is not a competitive dance studio. We start our students as young as 21 months old and continue up through adults. We have several performances throughout the year for our students to enjoy. We travel to Walt Disney to perform, we have holiday celebrations, family functions, fundraisers and more to enjoy.
Students begin friendships here that have lasted the test of time. It is a positive place for both students and parents. Our classes are kept small, and our younger classes have 1 teacher and 2 or more assistants in each class. Parents can view the class in progress while sitting in our waiting room from our TV monitor. This helps to alleviate the anxiety of separation.
We would love for you to try us on for size before registering and paying any fees! You are welcome to come in and take a FREE class, meet the staff, see the studio and asks questions! We want to be sure we are the right studio for you before registering.

What is a Child Care Center?
Under Maryland law, a child care center is run by an individual, an agency, or an organization. It offers child care services for part or all of any day, at least twice a week. Most child care centers are regulated under COMAR 13A.16 (“Licensed Child Care Centers”). Some nursery schools and child care programs run by tax-exempt religious organizations are regulated under COMAR 13A.17 (“Letters of Compliance”). All child care facilities must meet licensure requirements before operating.
Types of Child Care Centers
There are different types of child care programs and services. Some facilities may be licensed for more than one type:
Some centers provide care for infants and toddlers mostly. Others serve only preschool or school-age children. Most child care facilities provide care for a range of ages. Letter of Compliance (LOC) facilities, though, cannot provide care to children younger than two years old.
Within many centers, children are grouped with others of the same age. Other centers use mixed-age groups (for example, infants or toddlers grouped with pre-schoolers).
Some programs offer care only to school age children — typically before and after the school day. These are often run by community organizations, recreation centers, churches, etc.
All child care facilities must remain within the maximum child capacity established by the OCC. This means that no more than a certain number of children may be at the facility at one time. OCC also establishes minimum staff-child ratios for all facilities to make sure that children get the care they need.

Child and Adult Care Food Program
Childhood hunger is a devastating problem. Hungry kids are more likely to experience serious short- and long-term health issues. They also tend to have trouble learning and are more prone to behavioral and emotional problems.
The Child and Adult Care Food Program — funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and administered in Maryland by MSDE’s School and Community Nutrition Programs Branch — provides child care food subsidies for low-income families. Child care centers that participate in the program can receive reimbursement for food costs.
Helping young children to be well fed is just another way to help them be ready for kindergarten.
You Are One of Many!
More than 2 million people in the U.S. make their living by providing care for children under the age of 5.
How to get a license to operate a child care center
Getting Started

Notice of intent to operate a child care facility
OCC application form for a child care facility license or Letter of Compliance
Site plans
Floor plans with architectural details
Written plan of operation
Documentation of compliance with local zoning, building, health, and fire codes

Submit a Complete Application
Additionally you must also submit these items:
List of all facility personnel and staff qualification documents (if applicable)
Permission to examine records of abuse and neglect of children and adults for information about the director, residents at the facility (if any), and company officers who may interact with children in care
A criminal background check form and fingerprinting cards for yourself and other adults employed in your facility is required and processed by the Maryland Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS). There is a fee payable to CJIS, to process the background check. The amount of this fee varies in different parts of the state.
Make Sure the Facility is Safe and Properly Equipped
Your facility must be in good repair and meet all building, sanitary facility, lighting, and food storage/preparation/service requirements in COMAR 13A.16 or COMAR 13A.17. All areas of the facility to be used for child care must be safe and properly equipped. Here are some examples of facility safety and equipment requirements:
All potentially dangerous items such as cleansers, medicines, tools, and sharp implements are not accessible to children.
All child care areas are lead-safe.
Electrical wall sockets are properly capped as required by the applicable fire code.
A properly stocked first-aid kit is present on the premises.
There are adequate, appropriate, and safe indoor and outdoor activity materials and equipment.
If children under 12 months of age will be in care, there must be enough cribs for each child, and each crib must meet U. S. Consumer Product Safety Commission standards.
Pass OCC, Fire Safety, and Other Required Inspections
Once everything is in place for your business, a Regional Office licensing specialist will inspect your facility. This inspection determines if your facility and program meet child care licensing regulations. It’s also an opportunity to ask any last minute questions you may have.
Your facility must also be inspected by the local fire authority to make sure it meets all fire codes. Inspections by the Health Department and/or other local government agencies may also be required. There are no fees for any inspections conducted by the OCC, but there may be fees for inspections by fire, health, and/or other local authorities.
Pass OCC, Fire Safety, and Other Required Inspections
After the requirements have been successfully met, the Regional Licensing Office issues your child care facility license or Letter of Compliance. A new child care facility is authorized to operate for a period of two years. At the end of that period, the license or Letter of Compliance may be converted to continuing (i.e., non-expiring) status. (You must submit an application for continuing, non-expiring status.) A non-expiring license may still be placed on probationary status if the center does not comply with State requirements. Continued failure may result in suspension or revocation of the license.
Child care centers are routinely inspected at least once every 12 months on a “drop-in” status to determine if requirements are being met.
CONGRATULATIONS!
As soon as you receive your license or Letter of Compliance, you are ready to open your child care center for business! The following are some community resources that can help in developing your program:

Younger groups (1.4-3 years old), private kindergarten “Solnechny Krug”
Calculate the cost
This group is intended for children from 1 year 6 months to 3 years.
Answers to questions most often asked by parents:
How many teachers are in the group?
There are 4 educators in the group, there are always 2 educators in the first and second shifts, and during quiet hours, all 4 educators are in the group and prepare the children for bed. Moreover, all the educators in the Solar Circle are engaged with children and we have no such thing as a nanny. Dishes and floors are washed by cleaning company employees.
What classes are included in the price of attendance?
Educational program for the week:
* 5 Montessori lessons of 60 minutes each;
* 2 music lessons
* 2 creative activities
* 1 physical education
* 1 lesson in the pool with mom (the schedule is agreed with the pool administrator)
Is it possible to visit for half a day?
As a rule, children attend half a day only during the period of adaptation to kindergarten, then the child stays in a group for a full day (from 7:30 to 19:30), because only presence throughout the day can give you a guarantee that the educational program of the “Solar Circle” will be fully implemented.
Are they taken to the kindergarten if the child is still in a diaper, does not hold a spoon?
Yes, of course, at this age the child is just learning to hold a spoon and gradually wean from diapers. The teachers of the group make every effort to teach this to the child.
Are children supplemented?
Yes, of course, the teacher carefully looks at what and how much the child ate. We help children finish their meals, we supplement them with a spoon. But never force food!
How are babies put to sleep?
At the time of euthanasia, all 4 caregivers are present in the group. All of them help the child tune in to sleep. You are only required to report how the child is used to falling asleep. This will help you quickly adapt to sleeping in a group.
Do they take children who do not speak into kindergarten?
Yes, we take the child if he does not speak yet. We also take children who do not know Russian to kindergarten. We already have experience of working with such children.
Do children sleep, eat, play in separate rooms?
For sleeping, a separate room is provided with cots suitable for children in size. For games – a special game room, equipped with everything necessary according to SanPiN. Kids eat in a group, in a specially equipped area, separated from the play area.
Do we have a walking area?
The walking area is the pride of the Solar Circle. Despite the fact that we are located in the city center, we have our own large, fenced area. There is a large game complex “Ship” on it, the markings on the tracks are like on the roadway. We allow kids to take their own vehicles with them – a scooter or a balance bike, there is a special garage for them. For kids, a separate, fenced area where they can feel safe.
Do children get sick often?
Surprisingly, but true: our children get sick less often than in other kindergartens. This is primarily due to the prevention of diseases. Firstly, at the entrance to the group, each baby is waiting for the morning filter, if he is healthy – come in, if you cough or “snot” – we send him home, get better and do not infect others. Secondly, the obligatory quartzing of the premises according to the schedule, and thirdly, gargling with herbal infusion and vitamins. Well, the most important thing is that we all get sick when our body is under stress. Don’t stress, you won’t get sick. This rule is followed by the educators of the solar circle. If everything is fine in the group, you are loved and cheerful, no one screams – then you will be healthy!!! According to statistics, in a normal period, in the solar circle – 96-97% of healthy children. And at the peak of the incidence, this figure drops to 91%.
Also for children, hardening is carried out on a salt path. First, children walk on massage mats, performing various foot exercises. After the foot is warmed up, the baby walks on a mat soaked in saline and “tramples” in place for 1-2 minutes. At the same time, exercises are performed for the muscles of the arms, back, and abdomen. Salt solution will cause the expansion of the peripheral vessels of the feet. Heat generation increases reflexively, blood flow to the lower extremities and feet increases, heat is retained for a long time. To enhance the hardening effect, the procedure ends with breathing exercises. This method is simple, has a pronounced effect, plays a significant role in the prevention of colds.
O Are our teachers experienced?
Experience can be measured in different ways. It can be assessed in the number of years worked in the educational field, it can be assessed by the number of diplomas and certificates, but it is unlikely that a person who fills out documents on time and does not change jobs for a long time can be called a “Educator with a capital letter”. Raising a child is a serious process. In our opinion, the most important thing for a teacher is the ability to find an approach to any child, the ability to see the individual characteristics of this child and develop them in him. The most important thing is not to break the “core” of the child, his self-confidence, to maintain a healthy psycho-emotional climate in the kindergarten group. The educators of the Solar Circle accurately determine the talents and skills of the child inherent in him by nature, develop them daily, and we know for sure that our educators do not scream or suppress children.
How is adaptation going?
“Solar Circle” is very sensitive and attentive to the period of adaptation of the child to kindergarten. The most important thing at this moment is to do everything right! First of all, before entering the group, each child with a parent comes to a meeting with a psychologist. At the meeting, the psychologist draws up a conclusion about the readiness of the child (including the parent) to enter the group. Together with the parent, the parent psychologist draws up an individual adaptation program. Some people need more time to adapt, and some less. Usually we start adaptation with the child going for a walk with the parent, then joint trips to classes, then the parent leaves the child for a short period of time, the time gradually increases, and finally, when the child falls asleep in a quiet hour without a mother, adaptation is considered complete.
How many children are in the group?
In the younger group, the maximum number of children is 18.

They will let you in with a runny nose and a temperature: how kindergartens work abroad – Parents.ru
Development “permissive” attitude to cough, snot, lice, worms and even mild fever. Coughing and sneezing kids calmly attend kindergarten.
If one of the wards is found to have lice or worms, then the educators will simply warn the parents that it is necessary to carry out appropriate prophylaxis. It is forbidden to mention the source of infection. Just as “disregard” in foreign gardens refer to the “quiet” hour. If you want – sleep, if you don’t want – there is something to do besides sleep. And in many gardens, children do not sleep in beds, but on mattresses that lie on the floor. And more…
USA
Children over 1. 5 months old are admitted to kindergartens. Until the age of 4 they attend kindergarten, after 4 they go to a special group at the school. When registering for kindergarten, parents fill out many questionnaires, one of the mandatory questions is whether the baby needs daytime sleep.
The most severe punishment in an American garden is to put a naughty boy in a chair. Sitting time – one minute for each year of the child’s age. So, at 4 years old, the child will sit for 4 minutes, and at 3 years old – 3 minutes. All children sleep not only in the same clothes in which they played, but also in shoes. Instead of beds, there are mattresses laid out on the floor.
Children are put to sleep in clothes and shoes so that in the event of an emergency (for example, severe hurricanes are not uncommon in many states), they can quickly evacuate.
However, in some Western countries, children in kindergartens are not put to daytime sleep at all, or they do it in such conditions (on mats or mats) that it is just right for children there to envy their Russian peers.
Montenegro
In order for a child to be admitted to a kindergarten, a certificate must be presented stating that at least one of the parents is working. When registering for a kindergarten or nursery, only a certificate from a pediatrician or, if the child is older than 3 years old, from a therapist is required. Be sure to provide information about vaccinations. Vaccinations are mandatory, refusals will not be accepted. A child will be accepted into the kindergarten only with a full set of them.
Children older than 6 months are taken to the nursery, children go to kindergarten from 3 to 6 years old. The group consists of 20-30 people. She is “served” by 2 educators. The child can be left in the garden or until lunch, or until 16-17.00. It is best to take the baby home after dinner, as there are not enough beds for everyone. Folding beds, by the way, are installed at the time of sleep in the same room where the children play. After a quiet hour, they are put away in the closet.
Snot is not a reason to leave a baby at home. The baby is walking calmly with rotavirus. They treat this attack with Coca-Cola and purchased instant (and very salty) chicken “soup”. Even if the child felt bad at night, but in the morning he feels fine, he is taken to kindergarten.
Rescue formula
When rotavirus infection is accompanied by severe vomiting or diarrhea, the main danger is dehydration. If there are no special pharmacy solutions at hand that restore the water-salt balance, the World Health Organization gives parents this recipe for home drinking: 1 liter of water + 3 g of salt + 18 g of sugar. Now it is clear why in some countries pediatricians in all seriousness prescribe Coca-Cola and instant chicken broth in bags to children. Mothers testify: the child quickly recovers from such a “diet”. After all, drinking soda and eating salty soup is much more pleasant for children.

France
French women’s maternity leave ends as soon as the child is 2 months old. Therefore, nurseries are alive in this country, which in Russia, consider, have sunk into oblivion. It is difficult to get a place in a nursery, but a child can attend a nursery 1-2 times a week for several hours a day. From the age of 3, the child begins to attend kindergarten, which in French is called “mother’s school”. And he visits it until the age of 6.
When enrolling in a nursery or kindergarten, parents will need to present a completed vaccination card. The child must be made mandatory vaccinations against 4 diseases: diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough and polio.
Several times a year kindergartens, like schools, are closed for holidays. There is also a nationwide day off for children attending kindergartens – Wednesday.
The group usually consists of 20-30 people. Each group has a teacher and assistant teacher. Groups are usually of different ages, every year the child finds himself in a new group, respectively, his teacher also changes.
Children do not change clothes and shoes in the garden. The only requirement for parents: no scarves! Apparently, educators are afraid that during running around and playing, the scarf can tighten around the neck and suffocate the baby. Food and toys cannot be brought with you. Only “dudu” is allowed – a soft toy with which the child sleeps.
From the age of 1.5, children no longer sleep in beds, but on low couches or on mats with sheets stretched over them. And they sleep, as a rule, in clothes. For children 4-6 years old, sometimes they are asked to bring a pillow from home. But at this age, during the “quiet hour”, the children themselves settle in the room where they have to.
Snot, cough and fever are not considered good reasons to spend a day or two at home. Up to 38.5, the temperature in a child is not considered a fever (this is a general medical practice, not only French). Just sitting at home until the mother is convinced that the child has finally recovered will not work. Firstly, almost all mothers work, and there are 3 paid days to care for a sick child per year. Secondly, for each day of absence, a certificate from a doctor is required.
Philosophical approach
Lice is a common problem in French kindergartens. But closing a garden with pediculosis for quarantine or disinfection does not occur to anyone. Philosophical attitude towards parasites. Lice, according to France, is not at all a scourge of the homeless, but quite a normal companion of tactile forms of hostel. Combing out all the family heads with an electric brush becomes a sweet evening ritual, and a preventive spray of lavender spray that repels lice becomes a morning ritual.

There is a lunch break between classes. You can take your child home for lunch. In order for the baby to be able to dine in the kindergarten, at the city hall, you need to get a referral to the dining room. There are no kitchens in kindergartens. Lunches are prepared centrally and delivered to institutions. Lunch in the understanding of the French is a salad, meat or fish with a side dish, cheese and dessert.
Israel
Kindergartens accept children from 2 to 6 years old. From 2 to 4 years old, children only play in the garden, at 4-5 years old they already sculpt something, draw, master other needlework skills, at 5-6 years old children are prepared to learn writing, counting and reading. They are taught to read, count and write at school.
From the age of 3, children in the group do not sleep anymore, even if the kindergarten is open in the afternoon. There are no nurses and doctors in the gardens. Even with childhood infections, quarantines are not satisfied, and bringing a child with a slightly elevated temperature is a common thing. But if a child’s temperature rises in the garden, the teacher informs the parents. If it is below 38.5 ° C, the baby can be left in the garden, if it is higher, he must be picked up as soon as possible. After the child’s recovery, a certificate from a doctor is not required in all kindergartens.

List of kindergartens in Moscow
Kindergartens play a very important role in the development of the personality and the development of the creative and intellectual potential of the child. It is in kindergarten that the child’s communication skills develop most actively. Here he has to meet and communicate with a large number of his peers and establish contact with unfamiliar adults. In kindergarten, specific character traits are manifested: good and bad qualities of character, talents and shortcomings. A good teacher will be able to correct the negative aspects and develop all the positive qualities of the child.
Careful consideration should be given to such an important choice in a child’s life. The right kindergarten will help your child develop into an independent person and prepare for school life. It is necessary to get to know the teaching staff better and observe their work. If it seems that the educators behave somewhat arbitrarily and do not give children any freedom, then it is worth giving up this educational institution. Teachers should control the leisure of children, but not interfere with their own development, making choices and making decisions.
Some children show talents or shortcomings even before kindergarten. You should immediately pay attention to this and choose the right kindergarten for him. For example, there are with an artistic bias or speech therapy kindergartens, where they will help eliminate speech defects. Therefore, listen to your child and evaluate his talents in order to choose a kindergarten that is right for him.
Kindergarten choice
But do not forget that there is a problem of lack of space in Moscow kindergartens. It is necessary to reserve seats in advance. Therefore, be prepared that the kindergarten that suits your child will not be able to accept him. In this regard, a conflict of interest is brewing: on the one hand, it is necessary to choose a kindergarten taking into account the development of the child, on the other hand, it is necessary to enroll in it in advance.
There is a myth that only the rich can afford a paid kindergarten, but in reality the price difference is not so great. All the same, you have to give gifts so that the child gets into kindergarten, chip in for repairs, security, cleaning and birthdays of educators. Although all this is not stipulated by the contract, it cannot be dispensed with. And in cases with a paid kindergarten, you will be billed a specific amount, where everything will be included. In addition, you can ask more from such an organization than from a state kindergarten.
Private kindergartens care about their reputation and therefore treat the process of raising children responsibly. Spend as much money as possible on the right things. They have the opportunity to hire professional teachers who will receive a good salary and hold on to their place. Educators pay attention to each child in the dose he needs, and allow him to develop independently, only directing him in the right direction. Therefore, a paid kindergarten, although a little more expensive than usual, will have a positive impact on the development of the child, which in the future will save money that would be paid by the tutor due to the poor performance of the child.

I would like to express my deep gratitude to the teachers and management of the preschool educational institution Luchik on Mendeleeva 8 for the excellent educational work …. I would like to note the attentiveness and care of the 3rd group teachers, as well as their work organizing a variety of daily developmental activities, conducting excellent morning performances and music classes. My daughter loves speech development classes and playful English. Due to the fact that we have a catastrophic shortage of places in public kindergartens in Western Murino, the private garden “Luchik” is an excellent alternative to state gardens and the opportunity to fully develop a child and prepare for school.

Description
Hello, my name is Snezhana Dorofeeva, I am the founder of the children’s center “EXCELLENT”, which grew out of the kindergarten “BABY”.
Now our children’s center has opened its doors not only for kids from 1.5 to 3 years old, but also for children up to 10 years old.
Graduating from our kindergarten, parents had a great need for the comprehensive development of babies after three years. Thanks to a large number of requests from mothers, we have founded a children’s center with many directions that will not leave any of you indifferent.
“Excellent” is a lifesaver for every parent and her child.
Paying attention to young children, it is important for us to develop their speech. To do this, we use:
Hand massage su jok (spiky magnetic balls and rings) + alternating various objects with a ribbed surface) in combination with respiratory, finger and articulatory gymnastics – which contributes to the development of the child’s speech. All exercises are accompanied by pronunciation of verses.
Walking along the massage path and massage modules + foot massage with wooden massage jars.
We pay special attention to teaching self-service skills.
For preschool children, we not only teach literacy, writing and numeracy, but put a deep emphasis on orientation in space, hearing and completing tasks, socialization of the child and the ability to make friends in a team. We pay great attention to the perseverance and concentration of the child’s attention, thanks to which the child does not have problems in learning.
For us, it is very important when working with school-age children to develop their memory, logic, thinking and observation skills. We motivate schoolchildren to be interested in learning and self-confidence, to be able to build their statements in a logical form.
We will dispel the myth that your child is hyperactive and this cannot be fixed! He will become the most attentive and diligent in the class! Come and see for yourself.
The comfort and safety of your child is our main goal, thanks to which the development of the child is faster and more comfortable for the child

In a private kindergarten Kids (rating – 4) welcome kids and their parents!

Parent: My kids have been attending Basis since before the pandemic, and we are so impressed! Rich academic curriculum, good inclusion of the arts, excellent opportunity for differentiation based on student needs. The teachers are dedicated and so are the parents to the kids’ success. While the administration has been bumpy as the school has gotten established (only 5 years old), they earned their stripes during the pandemic. Organized, safety-focused and diligent about communication. We supplement school with sports leagues and scouting outside of school, which many parents do. Easy to do given the extensive choice you have in the DC area. Also appreciate the international study body with impressively bright students from all over the world. A real meritocracy, unlike other private schools that admit based on VIP status or connections/donations. In the next few years, this school will only continue to advance its place in the rankings….

Middle School Student: It is the best school I have ever been to and has opened the gates for me to really be able to learn. I especially like language arts and my teachers truly have a broad understanding of the world and inspire us. I have read books including Pride and Prejudice, Jane Eyre, The Power of One, Frankenstein, Henry IV, Henry V, Oedipus The King, and many more. I came in 7th grade and I thought I would have a hard time, but that was not the case. The school is so diverse and I have gotten to learn about a bunch of different cultures and it has given me a better understanding. I went to public school before and until I got to this school I did not really know whiten outstanding education was. I feel ready to share my ideas with the world. … Read 9 reviews

2: Thomas S. Pyle Middle School 12: North Bethesda Middle 14: Westland Middle
To determine the rankings, U.S. News used data from the U.S. Department of Education to analyze two areas at each school:
Math and reading proficiency — or how well students perform on state assessments.
Math and reading performance — or how well they perform compared with expectations.
The state assessment data used in the rankings is from the 2018-19 school year and, therefore, predates any effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on test-taking.
Schools were also ranked within their district. Here’s how elementary schools in Montgomery County Public Schools measured up:
Here are the top five middle schools in Montgomery County:
1. Thomas W. Pyle Middle School 2. Herbert Hoover Middle 3. Robert Frost Middle School 4. Cabin John Middle School 5. North Bethesda Middle
Nationally, California has 5,534 ranked elementary schools — the most of any state — followed by Texas at 4,446; New York at 2,211; Florida at 2,128; and Illinois at 2,038 schools.
California also has the most ranked middle schools with 2,319, followed by Texas at 1,942; Illinois at 1,243; New York at 1,219; and Florida at 997.

90,000 Primary education in the US. Junior school in America
Getting an elementary education in the USA is a worthy start for those who plan to study in an American high school and high school. The US educational system is different from the Russian one, and it will be easier for a child to get used to it in elementary grades. In addition, at 6-12 years old, it is easier for children to get used to a new language environment.
Features of primary education in the USA
Why get a primary education in the US?
The cost of primary education in the US
Which elementary school in the US should I choose for my child?
Features of primary education in the USA
most children go to school at 5 years old, but in some states this age is increased to eight;
for five-year-old students, a zero class is provided – Kindergarten. Despite the “kindergarten” name, everything is grown-up in it – there is a schedule and daily lessons;
After grade zero, primary education in the US takes another 6 years (from Grade 1 to Grade 6).
To get the consultation
In elementary school, classes in all subjects are taught by one teacher (with the exception of physical education and creative disciplines). Core subjects include arithmetic and English, which is divided into reading and writing. Children also get acquainted with the structure of the world around them and get the first experience of studying the humanities in the form of the history of their region.
Starting from the third grade, students take final tests at the end of the school year. These tests are taken seriously – they determine the future educational route. Children who successfully cope with them, firstly, can count on in-depth classes and an individual curriculum, and secondly, continue their education in a stronger secondary school.
Why is it worth getting an elementary education in the USA?
Primary education in the United States has a lot of advantages compared to Russian, especially if the child is going to continue his education in this country.
Fluent English. A child who studied in an elementary school in the United States does not need to confirm knowledge of the language when moving to a secondary school.
Children from an early age get used to the American assessment system – testing. Accordingly, the opportunity to get a high score increases.
Studying in an American elementary school increases the chances of studying in a good secondary school, because it will be easier to enter it.
US Primary Education Cost
In addition to public, there are many private elementary schools in the United States, the education in which is an order of magnitude better. Naturally, it is not cheap – 30-40 thousand dollars a year.
The costs are paid off by the quality of education in a private school.
The child finds himself in a friendly environment, which in every possible way motivates him to learn and develop. Small class sizes, early development of self-directed learning abilities, work with mentors, well-equipped science labs, creative and athletic fields are just a few of the benefits of studying in good US private elementary schools.
Which elementary school in the US should I choose for my child?
This issue requires careful analysis, because private schools in the United States are not limited in any way in the choice of subject teaching methods and manuals – they are different in each educational institution. Each school has its own character, values and traditions, and this must be taken into account when choosing.
Léman Manhattan Preparatory School is located in downtown New York. Students study here until the end of secondary education – up to 18 years old, but the junior school is located in a separate building. Each child is provided with an individual approach and curriculum that helps develop strengths. In addition to basic subjects, students get acquainted with world culture and learn foreign languages, and after the main lessons they attend creative and sports additional classes.
At Ross School , much attention in elementary school is paid not to studying subjects separately, but to establishing the relationship between them. In one lesson, students get acquainted simultaneously with history, geography, religion, philosophy and the basics of economics. There is a lot of practice in learning – children do not sit over books, but create their own model of the solar system, visit a local farm and make the first experiments in scientific laboratories.
At Pilgrim School , located in Los Angeles, has a college prep focus and has been worked on since elementary school. The curriculum is highly intensive. For example, when learning English, children also practice calligraphy and phonetics. The schedule includes two foreign languages at once – Spanish and Chinese Mandarin.

Primary schools and basic education in the Czech Republic
Over the past couple of decades, Czech primary education has been reformed several times. Today, schools are given greater independence in choosing the concept of education and their own positioning. As a result, many specialized and private schools have appeared. The choice has expanded significantly. The author of blog 9 talks about how primary education is organized in the Czech Republic today0092 GoStudy Alexandra Baranova.
General information
Primary education in the Czech Republic is free and compulsory for all children from the age of six, regardless of nationality or Czech citizenship. The child is sent to the first grade at the age of six, a one-year deferral is possible only on the recommendation of a teacher or doctor. Moreover, parents or guardians are liable before the law if a child over six years of age does not attend school without the necessary reason. The primary education system consists of two stages and lasts for nine years. The first stage of elementary school includes grades one through five, the second stage includes grades six through nine.
After the ninth grade, the teenager moves on to secondary school or gymnasium.
The life of junior schoolchildren in the Czech Republic differs from Russia and the CIS:
The first teacher leads her class only to the second, and not to the fourth or fifth grade.
Czech schools have good canteens, where children are provided with quality meals for a nominal fee. The menu has not only the first and second, but also fresh fruits and juices, and the child can choose what he likes.
In the first years of study, much attention is paid to extracurricular activities. Children go on excursions to theaters, galleries, go to the zoo and go hiking.
Sport in a Czech school is not just two physical education lessons a week. The guys actively play football, floorball, basketball, spend a lot of time outdoors during the “extension”. From the third grade, the schedule includes a visit to the city pool. Since 2017, the Czech Ministry of Education has made it mandatory for all elementary schools to include swimming lessons in the compulsory curriculum. In the seventh grade, children are taught to ski. And from March to November, children go to the skating rink once a week.
Parent’s opinion: Kirill J., father of twins (8 years old) tells
Advantages of primary school
In general, I am satisfied with the Czech primary school. I like that the kids are separated from the older ones, separate conditions are created for them. “Prodlenka” is organically integrated into the educational process. The child is not just drearily waiting for his parents to pick him up, but is always busy with something interesting, sometimes he even manages to do his homework.
Primary education includes playing physical culture – in Russia, for this you need to send the child to the section. In the Czech Republic, children have a lot of outdoor games at school.
It is also good that you can choose a lunch for your child from the electronic menu, take into account his food preferences, but at the same time limit the amount of sweets, rolls or dumplings.
You only need to pay for the canteen and after-school, sometimes some extra-curricular activities. Otherwise, the school does not “rip off” money from parents.
Children are not overwhelmed with homework, so parents do not have to sit for hours over lessons. At the same time, the program has a lot of puzzles for quick wits. I remember we were studying proportions and percentages in the third grade, and I could not figure out what it would be useful to me for. So, for my children, these tasks are framed in a more applied, “life-like” version. A workbook is almost always included with the textbook. In the case of mathematics, this is very cool: you can only focus on solving an example, and not on finishing your homework.
The most positive thing is the approach to interaction with the child. “I’m telling you how to do it, so do as I said” – this is about the Russian education system. In the Czech Republic, everything is discussed, the child can and should express his opinion.
Disadvantages of elementary school
During quarantine, the children switched to online learning, and it immediately became clear that it was difficult for their teacher to conduct remote lessons, primarily due to age. In general, a lot is connected with the personality of the teacher; It seems to me that younger students should have younger teachers.
All foreign children are assigned additional lessons with a teacher (Czech doučování) if it becomes clear that the child is lagging behind due to problems with the Czech language. True, there are difficulties with classmates: they tease you for being a foreigner. In this case, it is important that teachers stop this in the bud.
How can I get my child into primary school?
It is better for a foreign child to enter an elementary school after a Czech kindergarten. This will help him adapt to the language environment and make contact with classmates much easier.
The package of documents for registration in the first grade includes:
– birth certificate of the child. It must be translated into Czech and certified by a notary.
– a photocopy of the passport of one of the parents with a visa (permit, permanent residence, etc.)
If the child has already studied several classes at another school, then you must attach an extract with a complete list of subjects and grades. The extract must be translated into Czech and notarized.
The easiest way is to place your child in a local school. If parents are aiming for a more prestigious school in another area, then it is better to contact them in advance and clarify the conditions for admission.
Knowledge of the Czech language plays a key role in the academic performance of foreign children, so it makes sense to prepare in advance for going to school. The submission of documents is accompanied by a personal conversation with the director of the school, so it is better for both parents and the child to have at least conversational Czech skills.
What does primary school look like?
The school year starts on September 1st, but the Czech Republic does not have ceremonial lines or dress uniforms. Children come to school in comfortable everyday clothes. It is customary to give flowers to teachers at the end of the school year, as if in gratitude for all the difficulties experienced.
Textbooks and workbooks are provided free of charge, additional books can be borrowed from the library.
If a child falls ill, the main thing is to notify the teacher in time. No one requires medical certificates, teachers count on a responsible approach from adults. I must say that in Czech educational institutions it is generally not customary to play truant.
Student’s opinion: Xenia R., 7th grade student says:
“I have been studying in the Czech Republic for five years now. During this time, I do not remember a single case when one of my classmates just skipped a lesson. Most of the kids do their homework too. Someone fails, but it’s okay to come and ask a question, ask the teacher to explain. Therefore, I am very surprised when I talk with friends who have stayed at home. The feeling that they only think about how to study less and go to school less often.
The longest holidays in a Czech school are summer (two months) and Christmas (two weeks). In addition, children have a rest for several days at the end of October, in mid-February and at Easter. Easter holidays start at different schools at different times. The school is also closed on official public holidays. If only one or two school days fall between holidays and weekends, then you can arrange a full-fledged vacation for your child. To do this, parents need to write a letter addressed to the principal of the school.
During the summer holidays there are camps (Czech přiměstský tábor) where children both study and relax. During the school year, the class, together with the teacher, can go to the “school in nature” (Czech. škola v přírodě) .
Variants of primary schools
In the Czech Republic there are public and private primary schools, in the latter education is paid. The cost of education depends on the specialization of the educational institution, foreign languages, extra-curricular programs, technical equipment of classes and the prospects that open up for students in the process of studying and after graduation.
The basic language in schools is Czech. However, in Prague there are schools where education is conducted in English, German, French and Russian. All of them are private.
For example:
Věda School
German School Deutsche Schule Prag
French Lyceum
English School Prague British International School
English School Riverside School Prague 90 Basic5 English School
6
Meridian International School Prague
Sunny Canadian International School
Open Gate English Grammar School and Elementary School
Park Lane International School
PORG Grammar School and Elementary School
Teaching at Schools with Instruction in English will cost an average of 7,800 to 22,400 euros per year. Private schools teaching in Czech are cheaper. For example, the Věda school, which has Russian language and literature, but the rest of the subjects are taught in Czech, costs 5000 – 7000 euros per year. Primary school at the prestigious PORG gymnasium – from 6158 to 6300 euros, but it is not easy to enter there.
Schools:
Tuition fee (for 1st and 13th grade) in CZK
Prague British International School
458 100 – 540 000
Riverside School Prague
417,000 – 567,000
Meridian International School Prague
296,000 – 395,000
Sunny Canadian International School
198,000 – 180,000
Open Gate School
256,000 for children who come to school every day; 470 000 – boarding school
Parklane International School
336 200 – 536 600
PORG
156 185 – 161 648
Veda
135,000 – 180,000
How to choose the best school?
For starters, you can see which schools are located close to home, for example, in the atlas of education. There are also ratings of schools by district, and a separate one for Prague.
The list of the best schools in the Czech Republic is traditionally headed by Prague educational institutions:
Gymnasium and elementary school PORG
PORG
Gymnasium and elementary school PORG is a Czech school with in-depth study of English. Funded by the Czech billionaire and former head of the energy company ČEZ Martin Roman. Of the 18 Czechs currently undergraduate students at Oxford University, 10 are PORG graduates.
Jan Kepler Gymnasium
Jan Neruda Gymnasium
The first renovated real gymnasium
Archbishop’s Gymnasium
Open Gate
The private boarding school Open Gate was founded by another Czech billionaire, Peter Kellner, who tragically died this year. It is located 30 km from Prague. Accepts children based on passed IQ tests. Scholarships are received by about 50% of students. 98% of graduates study at the most prestigious universities in the world.
What to do after graduating from elementary school?
After receiving a certificate of completion of the ninth grade, a student has two options:
Enter and unlearn two or three years in college and at the end have a ready profession. Upon graduation, the student receives the so-called. “výuční list” and can get a job right away.
Enroll and spend four years at an upper secondary school and obtain a matriculation certificate (Czech “maturita”). With this document, it is easier to enter any university.
The first option is preferable if the family situation forces the young person to start earning a living as soon as possible. This is also a good choice when school performance is not excellent and parents do not see the point in having a child make an effort to enter a university. Sometimes the propensity for a certain profession is so obvious that it makes sense to immediately get a basic education in this area, and postpone higher education for later.
The second option is a classic story where a person wants to study at a university, get a degree and want to build an international career.
Resume
Primary education in the Czech Republic lasts nine years and consists of two levels: grades 1-5 and grades 6-9. In contrast to the Russian system of education in Czech schools, emphasis is placed on extra-curricular activities, sports and a variety of leisure activities for children. Czech teachers do not seek to impose their point of view on kids, but on the contrary, they encourage dialogue with adults and the desire to express their own opinion. A foreign child can study in a public school free of charge on a par with Czech children. The key condition for successful study is knowledge of the Czech language.
How schools work around the world | Articles
On the eve of the new academic year, Izvestia studied the education systems in Europe, the US and Asia, comparing them in a number of ways – from the duration of study to the subjects that are included in the program.
Where the summer vacation lasts no more than 10 days, why students in Italy are forced to change schools and what distinguishes prestigious British education – in a special article for September 1.

Age
In most cases, children here go to school earlier than in Russia: European first-graders are usually six years old. In Italy, parents can decide when to send their child to school – teachers are required by law to accept even five-year-olds.
Schedule
Schoolchildren in Europe study longer than in Russia: sometimes they stay at school for eight hours. However, this time includes an hour break for lunch, walks on the street, excursions, games, sports. In addition, they are not given voluminous homework assignments.
Subjects
Most often, more complex subjects, such as mathematics or mother tongue, are scheduled in the morning, especially in lower grades. The standard set – mathematics, languages, exact sciences, history and social studies – is present everywhere, but the accents are placed in different ways. For example, in Italy it is believed that literature is too difficult a subject for 13-14-year-old students, so very few hours are allotted to it in the program.
Beginning of the year
In most European countries, the school year starts at the beginning of autumn, and the exact date may vary depending on the region – in hot areas, for example, students may be given an extra week of rest in the fall to make up for it in the winter.

Grading system
The grading system is different throughout Europe, but everywhere the scale has more than Russian five points. In France, the work of students is evaluated according to a 20-point system. In Italy – by 10 points when it comes to each individual subject. At the final exams, a 100-point system is introduced, and the student is also awarded points for additional activity: sports success, performance at competitions. Therefore, an excellent student who is actively involved in sports or other extracurricular activities may end up with a mark of 110 points. Germany is closest to the Russian system – there a student can get from 1 to 6 points.
Help from Izvestia
In most European countries, schoolchildren study for 13 years, while compulsory education lasts for 10 years, followed by college or targeted preparation for entering a university.
This is how the system works in Italy or France, for example: children go to primary school at an early age – at five or six years old. This is followed by secondary school, and most often the transition is accompanied by a change of class. In Italy, this is generally a prerequisite – primary schools there are in no way connected with secondary schools, and children, having studied in the lower grades, change their educational institution. It is believed that in this way they learn to better adapt to changing life circumstances.
After graduating from high school in Italy and France, those who wish can enter the lyceum, but from that moment on, education becomes paid. The choice of a lyceum – creative, humanitarian, natural science or with an emphasis on vocational education – depends on the student’s plans for the future. In Italy, teenagers will decide their future plans at the age of 14-15.
In Germany, schooling lasts the same as in France and Italy, but the division occurs here even earlier. After graduating from elementary school, children who are less inclined to study are sent to a five-year education – after which they can receive professional specialties that do not require high qualifications. More capable students take a six-year course in a real gymnasium, after which they can additionally complete the 11th and 12th grades of the gymnasium. The 13th grade is considered very difficult and is needed only for those who plan to enter the university.

Age
British children start school at age five, but this is a preparatory school where the focus is on play and socialization. In the primary school itself (primary school), the main subjects appear in the program. The emphasis at this time is on project work to help children make friends.
Schedule
The time a student spends at school may vary depending on the institution – it also depends on whether he is studying in a boarding school or in a regular school, and whether it is private (which in the UK very common) or state. Lessons start at 8:30 or 9hours, with a one-hour lunch break. And after classes, in most cases, children are waiting for extracurricular activities – for example, sports or work on joint projects.

Beginning of the school year
Usually students go to school in early autumn, but the date may vary depending on the institution – sometimes, for example, lessons start even before September 1st. The school year is divided into three semesters – in summer schoolchildren rest for six weeks, in winter and spring – for 2-3 weeks.
Subjects
Basic subjects – mathematics, science, sports, language – appear in the program even in elementary school. French is the most commonly used second language in the UK. Closer to the senior classes, students get the opportunity to choose some of the subjects depending on their plans for the future and thus create an individual schedule for themselves – as a result, the composition of the class often changes from lesson to lesson.
Grading system
UK grades are based on a 100-point scale. At the same time, there is a special classification that allows you to correlate the number of points received with the level of the student. Scores from 70 points and above are equated to the domestic five, from 60 to 69 points to the four with a plus, from 50 to 59 points to the four, from 40 to 49 to the three, from 30 to 39 points to the two with a plus, and that’s all. below 30 is an absolute failure.
Information from Izvestia
Due to the prestige of its education, England stands apart from a number of European countries, although the basic principles here are very similar to the pan-European ones. Education is divided into three stages: primary and secondary schools, as well as the most difficult, pre-university years.
Much attention, especially in primary school, where children stay until the age of 11-12, is given to the socialization of students and sports.
In the UK more than in other countries, boarding houses are common, in which students study and live throughout the week. In addition, separate education for boys and girls is popular in the country – it is assumed that in this way it is possible to achieve greater equality: children have to fulfill all the duties, and not divide them according to gender, and there are no difficulties in classes due to the fact that girls in this age are often more assiduous and receptive to knowledge than boys.

Age
Americans start studying at the age of six, but in primary school the set of subjects is limited – children learn to write, read, study arithmetic. Most often, students in classes are distributed according to the level of knowledge – based on the results of tests that they pass at the very beginning.
Class schedule
Students stay at school for seven hours – on average, lessons last from 08:30 to 15:30. The entire academic year is designed for 180 days and is divided not into quarters, but into semesters. The remaining 185 days fall on weekends and holidays – there is no single system here, they are determined separately in each state and each school.
School year starts
As in Europe, the US school year starts in late August/early September, and the exact date may vary from state to state.
Subjects
As in the UK, American students can design their own program, choosing subjects that suit their future goals, abilities or interests: in junior high school this is usually no more than five subjects, in high school you can choose already most of the subjects to study independently. The compulsory ones for all include mathematics, natural sciences, English and an analogue of domestic social science. For each subject, a certain number of “credits” is assigned – the student must himself draw up the program in such a way that at the end of the semester in total he has the required number of these points.
Grading system
Grades are given in letters, there are five of them – A, B, C, D, E. However, they are still calculated according to a 100-point system. So, A – an analogue of our five – is set for 93 points or more, and less than 63 points is already E, the lowest possible rating. At the same time, school grades in the United States are not disclosed to anyone except the student and his parents.

Izvestiya Help
American children go to school from the age of six and study until about 17: the school system includes 12 classes. Children begin to prepare for school in the older groups of the kindergarten or in the preparatory school, where they enter at the age of five.
Primary school lasts 6-7 years, depending on the institution, after which children move on to secondary school, where they stay until the ninth grade. Secondary schools may be multidisciplinary, academic or vocational. This is followed by the so-called senior secondary school – grades 10-12, but those who study in them, first of all, would like to go to university after their studies.
Formally, school education is public, but the authorities of individual states can make their own changes to the general system – therefore, the life of schoolchildren may differ from state to state.

Age
The Japanese and Chinese start school at the age of six, apart from kindergarten and preparatory groups, whose programs are much richer than in Europe.
Schedule
In China, school starts at 8-9 am, but it is assumed that by this time the student has already devoted at least an hour to self-study. Lessons end at about 4, after which the child spends a few more hours in additional classes and, if he has enough strength, devotes some time to independent study in the evening. The weekend schedule is not much different from weekdays.
In Japan, the schedule for children is about the same – classes last from 8 am to 6 pm, while, as in Europe, they have an hour break in the middle of the day. In the evening, children go to tutors or study at home on their own. And vacations are used as a chance to improve knowledge in individual subjects.
Beginning of the school year
In Japan, the school year begins in April and is associated with the beginning of a new cycle in nature. In China, it is tied to the global system – students go to school on September 1st. The study is divided into six months – the second begins on March 1, and summer holidays often last no more than 10 days.

Subjects
Most of the time in school is spent on mother tongue and math, followed by common subjects like history, science, social studies. It is mandatory to study a foreign language, most often English.
In Japan, students learn not only modern Japanese, but also ancient and medieval Japanese. As a bonus, most schools have good sports grounds and music rooms equipped with a variety of modern instruments.
Grading system
In Japan, as in the United States, marks are given in letters – five letters in total, from A to E – each letter corresponds to a certain result on a 100-point system. China also has an alphabetical grading system.
However, the highest point of stress and the most important assessment for Chinese and Japanese schoolchildren are the results in final exams and university entrance exams. The Chinese national gaokao entrance exam, for example, lasts for three days and is a real test of endurance. The final exams are no less stressful for the Japanese – their results are published on special scoreboards, in front of which applicants gather.
Help of Izvestia
In the East, and primarily in China and Japan, the school system differs from European and American in its demands on students. If in the West the emphasis is on the social adaptation of children, their individual development and sports, then in Japan, for example, children begin to learn arithmetic in kindergarten.
In the same place they learn self-government, when four-year-olds are appointed in turn to be the senior duty officers in the group.
In both China and Japan, children’s vacation time is extremely limited, and most of their free time, even on school days, they spend on independent studies, trips to tutors and special after-school study groups. The same applies to short holidays, during which they use their free time to complete more additional tasks and further improve their level of knowledge.
As in other countries, school education here is divided into three stages: primary, secondary and final, in total it consists of 12 classes, and nine are compulsory. Moreover, parents have to pay for education in grades 10-12.

Age
Primary education in Argentina is compulsory for all children between the ages of 6 and 12. A similar system operates in Cuba, where every child between the ages of 6 and 11 is required to complete a basic school course. In Brazil, primary education lasts 8 years, while in Argentina and Cuba it lasts 6 years, excluding preschool. As for secondary education, in Cuba it is divided into basic secondary, lasting 4 years, and upper secondary, which lasts 2 years. At the same time, in Brazil, secondary education can be obtained in 3 years, and in Argentina – in 5–6 years. In Mexico, children enter first grade at the age of 6. After 6 years, they move on to junior high school. After studying for another two years, students decide whether to continue their education or go to work.
Schedule
Argentinean schools have a regular five-day week. In elementary school, classes usually start at 8:30, while in middle school, the first lesson may start an hour earlier, at 7:30. Morning training lasts there, as a rule, until 13:00, and evening – from 13:00 to 17:00. With a difference of half an hour to an hour, studies begin in most other countries of Latin America. The academic year there lasts an average of 180 to 190 academic days.
Start of school year
Since winter in Latin America begins at a time when it is summer in Russia, the start of the school year falls on other months. For example, Brazilians, Argentines and Costa Ricans go to school in the first week of February. And in Chile and Uruguay, students go to school in March. The exception is Mexico. There, the academic year begins in September and lasts until June 30, with holidays in December and April.
Items
Education in Cuba consists of several levels. From the first to the fifth, children study mathematics, computer science, natural history, receive artistic education and attend physical education classes. At the sixth step, several more subjects are added: English, Cuban history, Cuban geography and labor education. It is also worth noting that earlier in Cuba, from 30 to 45 people studied in one class, but after the modernization of the education system, the number of students in one group decreased to 15 people.
In Argentina, for example, bilingual schools are popular. There, the school day consists of two shifts, while the second shift takes place in a foreign language. In ordinary schools in Argentina, the second language is taught from the fourth grade. In addition to English, children can also choose French and Italian. Particular attention is paid to musical and theatrical education. Students have the right to choose a direction in education, one of which is devoted to art. Among the most popular clubs are gymnastics, choir and dance.
In addition, the literary program of Latin American countries attracts attention. The works that are studied in Russia in higher educational institutions are included in the compulsory school curriculum in Colombia. You can’t go to university there without reading “One Hundred Years of Solitude” by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, “Playing the Classics” by Julio Cortazar, the poetry of Pablo Neruda, “Humble Hero” by Mario Vargas Llosa and other works by the masters of “magical realism”.

Grading system
Grades are given on a 10-point scale. At the end of each trimester, students receive a score, which is calculated from the results of intermediate tests. A passing mark is 7. But even if the student does not pass all the subjects, he can continue his studies. However, he will not receive a certificate of completion of high school until he closes the debt.
Some schools have a 5-point rating scale. Such institutions are found in Colombia. According to the local scoring system, 0 to 2.9- unsatisfactory result, from 3.0 to 3.4 – acceptable, from 3.5 to 3.9 – good, from 4.0 to 5.0 – excellent.
Help Izvestia
In recent decades, the level of education in Latin America has risen sharply. Against the general background, Cuba stands out in particular. Back in the mid-1950s, about 1 million children were not in school at all. Now Cuba spends on public education, according to some reports, 10% of the budget, ahead of both the United States and Great Britain in this indicator.
Nevertheless, the palm for the quality of higher education belongs to Brazil. According to the ranking of the best universities in Latin America, the first place is occupied by the University of Sao Paulo, and the second line is the State University of Campinas, which is also located in Brazil. The top three is closed by the Catholic University of Chile.
At the same time, the focus of training, depending on the countries, varies greatly. In Brazil, about 60% of universities are liberal arts. At the same time, applicants’ interest in nuclear energy is growing in Argentina, although medicine continues to be the leading field of science there.
In addition, most universities in Latin America provide free education. The only exception is Chile: there the state pays only primary education, while the cost of education in Chilean universities is second only to the United States in terms of value.

The education system in the United States includes 4 levels of education: elementary, secondary, higher and postgraduate.
US secondary education system
School education in the United States begins around the age of 5, when children enter kindergarten in elementary school. Primary school education in the United States continues until grade 5 or 6, after which high school begins, ending in grade 8 or 9, depending on the state. High school (high school) is 3 or 4 years of study – from 9 to 12 grade. Secondary education ends at 18 years of age.
US Elementary School : Academic subjects taught in arithmetic, reading and writing. Natural and social sciences are almost not given.
The middle school is called Middle School (grades 6-8) or Junior High School (grades 7-9) . They come here from the age of 11. At this time, students study a set of compulsory subjects (mathematics, English, natural sciences, social studies, physical education and art) and several subjects to choose from (foreign language, art and technology, journalism, rhetoric, theater arts and many others).
Senior High School – grades 9 to 12 (High School) or 11 to 12 (Senior High School). There are more subjects to choose from, students are already guided by their goals in entering the university. Schools in America offer a wide range of subjects, from agricultural engineering to 3D design. You need to earn a certain number of credits (a certain number of credits are given for each subject) in the exact sciences, social sciences, etc. In most states, 8-9 subjects are required.
Graduates of schools operating in the US education system receive a High School Сertificate diploma in the 8th grade. From 9through the 12th grade, students are preparing for the final exams, after which they receive a High School Graduation Diploma. Those who want to get a higher education can enter colleges or universities, where they receive a bachelor’s degree in 4 years.
Schools also have a special 13th grade – the Advanced Placement Program. It is for those who wish to study in depth those subjects in which they plan to specialize at the university. Graduates of this class can be enrolled immediately in the 2nd year of the university. The results of the preparation for the AR give benefits for admission to 90% of universities in the US and Canada are required for admission to top universities in the UK and more than 50 countries. However, it is required to pass the AR for a score of at least 3 on a five-point system. If you pass the subjects as “excellent”, you can apply for admission to Princeton, Harvard and Yale universities. AP: this is not only the final stage of complete secondary education, but also a full-fledged career guidance, the best preparation for successful study at the university.
A student’s assessment in a particular subject is formed not only on the basis of test results, but also on the attitude to learning, participation in class life, etc.
The state exams are the SAT and ACT, which are general academic tests of general ability, knowledge of mathematics and language skills, which are also entrance exams to colleges and universities.
The High Schools are aimed at entering colleges, business schools and universities in the United States and Canada. The diploma is awarded after the completion of the senior four years of high school. A prerequisite is that students must be over 18 years old by September 1 of the year in which they graduate.
To graduate, you need to complete about 100 credit hours in 7-8 subjects and earn from 20 to 24 credits (depending on the state) to gain access to higher education. In addition, you must pass the SAT or ACT. If English is not your first language, then you need to take the TOEFL or IELTS test.
The academic year in the USA is not divided into quarters or trimesters as in Europe, but into half-years – semesters.
The grading system is also different in the USA: it is not the usual 5-point system, but a 100-point system or a letter designation (where A is the highest, best score, and F is an unsatisfactory grade). In high school, most schools are switching to a system of credits (credit units). Not only the opportunity to move to the next educational level, but also the availability and size of the scholarship depends on the amount of credits earned.

American students start earning academic loans starting at 9or 10th grade (depending on the state). Training is conducted both in compulsory disciplines and in optional subjects. Compulsory disciplines: English, history, mathematics, natural sciences, physical education. In addition, each student chooses priority disciplines from the widest list. This may be the field of agriculture, industrial or academic, general or commercial (business education), art.

Recognition of American high school diplomas
US certificates are theoretically recognized as equivalents of matriculation certificates from Great Britain, Germany, France, Switzerland and other developed countries. However, with an American high school diploma, you will not be able to enter either a European university or an American university. To study at a university in the United States, you need to pass the SAT or ACT, and to enter a European university, you will have to take an AP and pass an exam in a language other than English.
Thus, without AP, American students are cut off the opportunity for free education in continental Europe.

Admission with AP with language exam
Equivalence of American and Russian certificates
The United States in relation to foreign applicants is much more loyal than Switzerland, Germany, Austria, France and Great Britain: theoretically, you can start studying at an American university immediately after the 11th grade of a Russian school. But for this you need to have a very high GPA and a high TOEFL score in English. Many universities, especially those that rank high in the rankings, also require you to take the SAT.
To increase your chances of enrolling in top US universities, it is still better to go through a special preparatory program for foreign applicants – Pathways. This is a regular first-year undergraduate course, but with additional English and academic subjects, as well as support for quickly adapting to a new country. The conditions for enrolling in such programs are much easier. But in order to get into such a program, you need to have an official certificate of a high level of English proficiency (B2) and pass the qualifying exams.
US Secondary Education Assessment
✰✰✰+
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) is conducting a comparative study of the quality of secondary education in public schools around the world, noting the dynamics of changes in indicators. Such monitoring has been organized and conducted by the OECD since 2000 and is called PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment). When evaluating the results, it is not so much the amount of theoretical knowledge learned from the school curriculum that is taken into account, but the ability to apply in practice in real life the knowledge gained at school. Today, this is the most significant and objective indicator of the quality of secondary education in different countries. The study is carried out every three years. Each time, there are more and more countries participating in this study: for example, in 2000, only 32 states took part in the study, and in 2015 – already 72.
According to the results of testing PISA in 2015, the United States took 31st place in the world in the overall ranking of countries in terms of the level of preparedness of schoolchildren, leaving behind Asian students (Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Macau, Taiwan, South Korea, China, Vietnam), Canadian, European (Estonia, Finland, Ireland, Slovenia, Germany, Holland, Switzerland, Denmark, Poland, Norway, Belgium, Great Britain, Portugal, France, Sweden, Austria, Spain, Russia and Czech Republic), as well as schoolchildren from New Zealand and Australia. The rating was compiled by Medelle specialists based on PISA testing data. The rating is built on the scores received by each country in testing (the higher the score, the higher the position in the rating). The final overall rating is calculated as the arithmetic mean between the ratings in all 3 areas of knowledge.
US students performed slightly above the OECD average in Reading and Science, ranking well below the OECD average in Mathematics:
Rank 24 out of 70 in reading (critical reflection)
Ranked 25th out of 70 in the world for science
39th out of 70 in the world in math
The US education system is also characterized by the overall performance of students, clearly shown in the PISA-2015 study:
32nd in the world in terms of the proportion of students who received the highest mark in at least one area
32nd in the world in terms of the proportion of underachievers in all three areas
US Secondary Education Ranking: ✰✰✰+
The United States ranks 31st in the world, not in the top 14 countries for the quality of secondary education in the world

Advantages and disadvantages of secondary education in the USA
– Education in the USA – both higher and secondary – is expensive. The cost of education in private schools is more expensive only in Switzerland and the UK.
– The secondary education system in the United States assumes the existence of two independent assessment systems – grades for final exams at school, which go to the certificate, and grades for SAT / ACT tests. For admission to universities in the US and Canada, test grades are important, which reduces the value of the certificate and levels the child’s performance throughout the entire period of schooling.
– To enter European and top American universities, students must complete a special one-year AP preparatory course and get good grades on its results. This extends schooling to 13 years, more than the OECD average of 12 years, and increases the cost to parents.
– In the United States, schools are taught in English, which is convenient for studying at universities in all English-speaking countries of the world. However, in these countries, higher education is paid. Thus, it is quite difficult for graduates of American schools to get the opportunity to study free of charge in European universities. Especially considering the fact that the study of a foreign language is not included in the list of compulsory subjects.
– The PISA International Student Assessment ranks the US below the OECD average (31 out of 70). This assessment was received by students from public schools. In private schools, judging by the percentage of graduates who entered universities, this estimate would be higher, but there is no study of the competencies of students in private schools.
+ Nevertheless, the system of secondary education in the United States also has the most valuable advantages: the education system is as flexible as possible, in schools it offers a very wide list of disciplines from which students choose their priorities. The flexibility of the school curriculum implies the child’s ability to focus on specialized disciplines. In fact, admission to American universities is based on the results of assessments in 3 tests – English, mathematics and one profile subject.
+ Career guidance work with schoolchildren is ideally set up in the USA, there are a huge number of summer academic schools in the country that provide an opportunity to get loans and recommendations that increase the chances of enrolling in the chosen university.
+ The United States is very loyal to foreigners: to enter an American university, they need to pass SAT / ACT tests and provide a matriculation certificate from their country of study. They do not need to retake school disciplines. However, the last advantage is more related to the accessibility of higher education.
If your goal is to get into the top universities in the US, then studying at a high school in this country is the best way to achieve your goal. It is in the United States in high school that the job of vocational guidance, assistance in choosing a future specialty, is ideally set. For 4 years, the child will fully adapt to the new conditions, learn the language and prepare for entering the university.
However, if there is a need to save money, then you can limit yourself to summer schools with preparation for the SAT or ACT. If you go to such programs several times, then the child will not only receive preparation for passing these exams and practice English among native speakers, but will also be able to receive academic credits that can prove to the selection committee his motivation and desire to learn. Namely, this is what is most valued when applying to a university in the USA!
If there are concerns that the child’s knowledge of English is not sufficient, then you can choose an intermediate option: get an IB certificate in a country where education is cheaper – for example, in Germany or Austria. An additional advantage of studying in such schools outside the US is that, being originally founded for children of different nationalities, these schools are more flexible and better adapted to foreigners.

Parent: Hands down, the best elementary school in the region. We have three children that have attended and with their varying interests and learning styles, each have thrived and have been beyond prepared for high school. Having been a parent at the school for the past 14 years, we appreciate the faculty who are caring, supportive, and fun! Academic standards are high yet tailored to meet individual student needs. The focus on character development and the amazing community make this school truly special. We are grateful for the strong academic foundation and values taught at St. Michaels.

Parent: My son is a sophomore at Archbishop Riordan and he absolutely loves school. As an all-boys school, the focus centers on guiding boys to become young men. There is a mandatory “frosh” skills class, where students learn skills such as shaking hands, balancing a checkbook, taxes, ironing a dress shirt, creating a resume, and more. The fact that Riordan is all-boys, means that the instruction targets specifically how they learn and the distractions faced at a co-ed school don’t exist. Overall, we are so happy with the school and we highly recommend!… Read 126 reviews

Parents Love After School with Right At School
My son will actually wake up early and ask to go in early and gets upset if I try to pick him up early. The staff is simply amazing and every week he is coming home with amazing art. Couldn’t ask for better!

Our daughter is new to Audubon this year and the one aspect of her transition that’s been super smooth is her time at Right at School. The team is great, polite, nice to chat with, and most importantly…they care about the kids’ safety and well-being.

Brentwood district schools reporting COVID-19 cases – The Mercury News
With in-person classes open less than a week, dozens of students and staff at two Brentwood school districts are being quarantined after being exposed to 13 peers in elementary schools and 10 in high schools who apparently have COVID-19, authorities confirmed Monday.
Brentwood Union School District Superintendent Dana Eaton said that through contact tracing, it’s been determined that none of the 13 elementary and middle school students caught the virus on campus.
Regardless, 55 students and two staff members came into contact with the 13 infected with COVID in its schools, which opened on July 28.
The Brentwood school district’s website posted a dashboard Monday that reported 12 students and one staff member from eight of its 11 schools had COVID-19 as of 12:25 p.m. Those with COVID-19 who never came to campus were not included, officials said.
Eaton said Contra Costa Health Services has warned “we should expect positive cases in our schools” reflective of the positivity rate of their communities.
“Currently there have been 205 positive cases in Brentwood over the last 14 days, so it is to be expected that the schools will have cases,” Eaton said. “Our goal is to follow the California Department of Public Health Safety Guidance to prevent the spread of positive cases at school. ”
Contra Costa health officials said there’s not enough data yet to predict what will happen in schools, since most have not yet opened. On Monday, in response to the rapid spread of the delta variant of COVID-19, Bay Area health officials announced that everyone must wear makes inside workplaces and businesses as of midnight Tuesday, regardless of whether they’ve been vaccinated.
Liberty Union High School District Superintendent Eric Volta said he will mandate indoor masks at all times and continue to follow all the other social distancing and cleaning guidelines to prevent transmission.
The district, which opened its three high schools on Thursday, does not take temperature checks of students but is asking people to self-monitor.
The three high schools in Brentwood and Oakley reported nine students and one staff member had COVID-19, but Volta said contact tracing is still being conducted to see whether anyone was exposed to them. He did not know how yet many were quarantined.
Brentwood Councilmember Jovita Mendoza, who has a daughter enrolled in a Brentwood high school, said she is concerned about the new delta variant and hopes people will abide by the health mandates to keep schools open.
“I get the numbers every single day and we’ve had like a death a week in Brentwood recently,” she said. “So it’s really sad.”
“We want them in schools,” she added. “And I think that’s fantastic. But just be respectful of the mask mandate… If everyone did that, I think we’d, you know, keep it to a minimum.”
School officials say they are glad to be back and are following all the guidelines to prevent transmission.
Brentwood Union School District board President Scott Dudek said the COVID-19 case numbers were much better in June when the board decided to fully reopen schools.
“At this point here, we have no intention of going back to hybrid or anything like that, but obviously we’ll be watching the numbers and that decision will be made,” he said, noting the state rules that temporarily allowed hybrid and distance learning for public schools expired on June 30.
Students who don’t feel comfortable attending in-person can pursue existing independent or homeschool study, officials said.
In nearby Antioch, Superintendent Stephanie Anello said nearly 100 students from Oakley, Lafayette and Walnut Creek have expressed interest in the district’s newly created Thomas Gaines Virtual Academy and she expects to have about 500 enrolled by Tuesday.
“I am truly grateful we had the foresight to form the virtual academy when we knew that many parents found it to work better for their students and families and that many parents may not be ready to send their children back to in-person learning,” she said. “To help other districts, we are trying to help their families who may want a virtual option as well.”
Both Brentwood superintendents said they’re optimistic they’ll be able to keep their schools open despite the spread of the delta variant.
“Actually, if there has been one thing proven right regarding the CDC and CDPH guidance is that schools need to be open for business and students need to be in class and with their peers,” Volta said.
“I truly hope we don’t go backward,” he added. “As a high school district with high school-aged students, all are eligible to be vaccinated. That is the best chance for students not to miss school and activities.”
Eaton agreed that his district will do all it can to keep schools open and won’t consider closing unless health officials recommend it.
“We are hopeful that our community will help us keep all schools open by following the CDPH guidance, staying home when they are sick and getting vaccinated,” Eaton said. “We are happy to be back full-time. We want to do everything we can to keep it that way… We are all in this together.“
Oakley Union Elementary School District did not reply to requests for comment by deadline.

The district says contact tracing showed none of reported cases were contracted at any one of their elementary or middle schools.
After 15 cases were reported, here’s what Brentwood Union School District is doing to prevent the spread of positive COVID-19 cases at its schools.
BRENTWOOD, Calif. (KGO) — After a year of distanced learning for Brentwood Union School District students and staff were back together in the classroom once again.
But the welcome home was disrupted just three days into the new school year as COVID-19 once again reared its head.
Fifteen positive cases amongst students and staff were reported within the district’s 11 schools.

“We’re scared, but at the same time we think it’s important for kids to go back to school,” said Wedelio Buyan, a parent.
Buyan hopes this trend doesn’t continue so his seventh grader won’t have to go back to online learning.
Molly Willbergh says it’s concerning, but she’s confident in the school district’s plan to keep her little one safe.
“I think the precautions they have in place, they’re masking indoors, they’re taking all the necessary steps, they’re cleaning regularly, so I feel really safe with my kids being there,” Willbergh said.

Thanks in part to this plan, the district says contact tracing showed none of the reported cases were contracted at any one of their elementary or middle schools.
Superintendent Dana Eaton provided ABC7 News with the protocols that go into place following a positive case:
School is notified of positive COVID case
School Notifies school site Nurse Team representative, district leadership
Contact tracing occurs in collaboration with Nurse Team
Personal contact (phone or in person) with all identified close contacts (within 6 feet for 15 minutes)
Follow up with letter to all close contacts
Close contacts are placed in appropriate quarantine procedure by school nurse following CDPH guidance and County Health input (if appropriate)
Cleaning of affected classroom if appropriate as directed by school nurse team and principal
Notification to all school staff via email
RELATED: American Academy of Pediatrics recommends universal masking in schools for everyone older than 2
Superintendent Eaton also said in a statement: “Our goal is to follow the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Safety Guidance to prevent the spread of positive cases at school. This includes indoor masking by all regardless of vaccination status, hand washing and cleaning and sanitation protocols.”
The district says the schools will remain open despite the cases.
But if they want to stay open, UCSF Infectious Disease Specialist Dr. Peter Chin-Hong says the community needs to do their part.
“At the end of the day, vaccinations, for those eligible, is still going to be the best way of combating this,” Dr. Chin-Hong said. “If you want to protect the kids under 12, you need to make the ring of vaccinated adults around them. Most of the transmissions in the past year in the United States have been from adults to kids.”

The California State Fire Department has officially declared all of Brentwood a very high fire danger zone from Mulholland to Sunset Boulevard due to the long, continuous boundary between the city and wilderness on the Brentwood hillsides, which has resulted in numerous fires over the years, devastating entire quarters and requiring numerous evacuations.

More than 300 police officers helped evacuate 3,500 residents during the 12-hour blaze, and about 2,500 firefighters fought the blaze by pumping water from nearby pools to put out the blaze. The fires smoldered for several days. Even as firefighters fought what was to be a disaster in Bel Air, another fire broke out in Santa Ynez Canyon to the west. This blaze was contained the day after almost 10,000 acres (40 km 2 ) and nine buildings and are burning within a mile of Bel Air and Brentwood. The fires were the fifth largest fire in the nation’s history at the time, burning 16,090 acres (65 km 2 ), destroying over 484 homes and 190 other structures and causing approximately $30 million in damage.

Homelessness, West Los Angeles, Virginia and Virginia, master plan redevelopment
Although the annual count of homeless people in Los Angeles County rarely counts more than 50 people in Brentwood as homeless, they invariably reside in a permanent homeless camp on San Vicente Boulevard, next to the West Los Angeles Veterans Affairs property. Most of the homeless are veterans. While VA does have affordable beds and treatment programs, many veterans find it difficult to take the first step to accept VA’s help for a number of reasons, including a deep distrust of VA, dishonorable layoffs that prevent them from receiving services, mandatory sober living environments on VA campus. In 2013, the Brentwood Community Council took the lead in creating safe parking for veterans and safe camping programs that allow veterans to take a “middle step” between being homeless and accepting full VA assistance. These programs were successful and expanded over time. The veterans believed that Virginia had violated its housing obligations and successfully sued the Virginia administration, proving that multiple leases on Virginia property had been used for fraud. Several people went to jail, including a former Virginia executive. in veterans’ civil lawsuit against VA, a $1 billion West Los Angeles area redevelopment master plan, including over 2,000 housing units, was approved by Congress in 2019year and come into force at the end of 2020.

Education in California: education system, schools, universities, cost
California is one of the largest and richest American states. Tens of thousands of foreigners and Russian students come here every year for work or study. There are more than three hundred educational institutions in California, including private schools, training centers, colleges, institutes, universities for secondary or higher education. Students of any age can start their studies in California – there are enough educational programs for schoolchildren, students and adult students.
California Education System – Secondary and Higher Education Abroad
Every state in America has its own educational policy, and California is no exception. As in many foreign countries, there are educational institutions for different categories of students – for children, schoolchildren or students, for Russian students or foreigners.
Schooling is compulsory for local residents and visiting students and starts at the age of 6 (there are also pre-school groups for preparation). For admission, you do not need to take exams, only foreign students need to pass an English proficiency test – California English Language Development Test. The best private schools in California are located in Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Jose, San Diego, Pato Alto and beyond. The average cost of education among private educational institutions will be about 13-18 thousand dollars for one academic year, and the price of education in elite boarding schools can reach up to 20-30 thousand dollars. Private educational institutions occupy a special place in the educational system of the state. Institutions of this type actively implement the idea of a variety of educational programs and the creation of conditions for the comprehensive development of students. Private and public higher schools are required to be accredited by agencies with certain powers in the territory of the selected state.
The local system of higher education is based on the California Master Plan for Higher Education, which was adopted back in the 60s of the last century. Over time, the California structure became one of the best throughout the country, so other American states soon adopted a similar scheme.
The structure of higher education in California consists of several levels. The first is community colleges. More than 100 institutions of this format operate here, where more than one and a half million students study annually. Doing well at a community college gives the student the opportunity to secure a place at a public university. The system of transition without additional exams from one educational institution to another is called transfer – it is popular not only in the United States, but also in many countries abroad, including European countries. The main advantage of the transfer is that foreign students can use it! The opportunity to make this transition allows you to significantly save on tuition fees abroad.
After completing a community college, the next stage is higher education: it can be a bachelor’s degree or a graduate specialization. After completing a bachelor’s degree, a young person is considered a full-fledged holder of higher education and can already begin a career path in the chosen specialty.
The next stage of higher education is a master’s degree or PhD: these two paths are chosen by students interested in development related to scientific activities. Also, the presence of a master’s degree, for example, makes it possible to occupy a managerial position when entering a job.
The scale of higher education in California is truly impressive – only in the two largest public universities in the states more than 700 thousand students study annually, and in total there are more than 100 different universities in the state.
Prestigious public schools:
California State University. This is the largest university with government support, not only in the state, but throughout the country. The infrastructure of the higher school includes 23 educational campuses and 8 educational research centers. The annual flow of students is more than 460 thousand. Despite its high status, the university does not offer many research and scientific programs, so California State University has only some campuses in the list of world higher schools.
University of California. An educational institution with a similar name includes only 10 campuses with a total student flow of about 250 thousand. This is one of the flagships of higher education in the United States, where all types of educational programs are offered from undergraduate to graduate studies. Here, research work is at a higher level, so the campuses of this higher school regularly occupy high positions in world rankings.
Leading private universities in California:
Stanford University. This is an elite world-famous university, the third richest higher education institution on the planet and the second in the international QS World University Rankings. The famous university offers students a wide range of subjects, as well as study programs. The priority areas of the university are entrepreneurship and computer science. The university has a strong scientific base, research potential, strives to provide a theoretical basis with the prospect of application in practice. Another advantage of the university is its location in Silicon Valley, which makes it possible to work closely with the world’s leading corporations.
Caltech (also known as CalTech to students). The university occupies the fifth place in the international ranking QS 2016-17. Among the graduates of the university there are more than 30 Nobel Prize winners and even more holders of other prestigious awards from various fields. The priority direction of the university includes traditional technical disciplines, as well as many programs of an interdisciplinary nature. The university implements the work of a business incubator, through which various scientific developments of a fundamental nature are introduced into life.
University of Southern California. One of the oldest and most respected research universities in California. Today, this high school actively uses international cooperation, develops interdisciplinary research, has an impressive scientific library and one of the largest donation funds in the United States.
University of California Los Angeles – UCLA. Another private state university specializes in preparing specialists in directing, music and theatrical direction. The university has one of the most extensively funded research bases and offers a large number of specialties, which gives it the right to be on the 46th line in the ranking of world universities. The main advantage of UCLA is the guaranteed employment of its graduates: the university is widely known throughout the country, so local residents or foreign students will not have problems finding a job after graduation. UCLA teachers expect students to be ready to think independently, so the volume of the theoretical base is much inferior to the amount of practical.
Institutions of higher education in California can vary in size and degree programs, be affiliated with out-of-state institutions, have a specific subspecialty, and more—there are many options. At the same time, each educational institution provides educational services of the highest level, works with a wide range of subjects and creates conditions for scientific and research activities.
Education at California universities: programs, specializations, cost, reviews
The economy of the US state of California is shaped by several key industries for which universities train specialists: agriculture, oil production and processing, information technology, show business and more.
According to statistics, the most attractive and popular professions for foreigners and Russian students in California are those related to the following areas:
Cinematography, TV, theater. It is in this American state that the dream of actors and directors around the world is located – this is Hollywood. Three leading universities of the industry are also located here: the School of Cinematography of the University of Southern California, the School of Theater, Film and Television of the same university in Los Angeles, the Department of Film and Media University of California at Berkeley. The cost of education here will be from 25 to 67 thousand dollars for one academic year.
IT, engineering and technical specialties. California is home to many technology-leading companies. The vast majority of the headquarters of leading corporations is located in Silicon Valley. Tuition fees at the top engineering and technology schools in California range from $28,000 to $49,000 per academic year.
Economics, law, entrepreneurship/medicine. One of the most sought-after universities with suitable qualifications is Davis University. It is here that you can get a quality education in these areas. The university is a division of the University of California, therefore, among the listed professions, it offers education in medicine or veterinary medicine. The annual cost of studying at a university for foreign students will be about 60 thousand dollars.
Despite the hefty cost of pursuing a college degree at California State Universities, degrees from local universities have an excellent reputation and help the holder recoup their tuition within 1-3 years of graduation.

School education in the USA – system and features
The system of secondary education in the USA is not at all like the Russian one. Not only the duration of training differs (12 versus our 11 years), but also pedagogical methods, curricula and much more. Understand what is school education in the United States.
Methods and programs
There is no single state education standard in the USA. The formation of the curriculum in the most general form (the list of basic disciplines, the dates of the beginning and end of the academic year) is carried out by the Council of Education under the state administration. At the same time, school employees determine all the specifics, such as teaching aids, the volume and nature of the material taught, on their own.
This means that each educational institution is free to manage the time of its students as it sees fit. A variety of programs and teaching methods in American schools, on the one hand, makes it possible to choose an educational institution that meets the individual needs of the student. On the other hand, the breadth of choice greatly complicates the life of parents and, at times, only makes it difficult to find a place to study.
Form of ownership
School education in America is represented by 2 types of educational institutions: public and private schools. Most of the country’s population studies in municipal institutions, since education is free for local residents. The government of the country is in charge of financing such institutions. Private schools, which cost a lot of money, are self-supporting.
Due to objective reasons, free public schools, as a rule, cannot boast of either a particularly high academic level or an advanced material and technical base. In this sense, the private sector has more opportunities, and the quality of education in them is usually better.
International students can attend both public and private schools in the US. In both cases, you will have to pay for education – there is no free education for non-citizens of the country in the States. Of course, the cost of education in a public school in the United States is much lower than in a private one. However, it should be borne in mind that American universities are more willing to take graduates of private boarding schools. A’s from a public school won’t make much of an impression on admissions committees, unlike, say, A’s from a prestigious private school.
Structure
Secondary education in the US has a 3-level structure. At the age of 5-6 years, the child enters elementary school, where he studies until the 6th grade. The elementary school program usually includes several academic disciplines (arithmetic, reading, writing, basic sciences), as well as music, physical education and drawing.
Middle school starts at 11-12 years old. Students are required to study mathematics, English, history, natural sciences. In addition, each student is offered 2-3 electives (foreign languages, art, etc.)
Even more freedom in terms of choice of subjects is provided by high school. From 9th to 12th grades (14-18 years old), students independently form their own curriculum, there are even more additional subjects. As a rule, by this time, children already more or less imagine what they want to do in the future, and choose those disciplines, knowledge of which is necessary for entering a university.
For the last 2 years of high school, teens prepare for the final SAT test, based on the results of which they are admitted to college, and, if desired, attend advanced courses in some of the subjects – Advanced Placement (AP). The AP program usually corresponds to the program of the first year of study at the university, so after admission, the university may count this course as already completed.
It is worth noting that the division into elementary, middle and high school is not conditional in the States. Unlike Russian schools, where both first-graders and graduates are under the same roof, in the USA each age group is entitled to a separate educational institution – with its own building, teaching staff and administration.
Extra-curricular activities
The purpose of the secondary education system in the United States is to bring up a versatile person with an active life position. Therefore, in American schools, much attention is paid to extracurricular activities of the student.
Children spend a lot of time in school – and it’s not just about the number of lessons.
Children are actively involved in sports: physical education lessons, similar to those that take place in a Russian school, end with American students in middle school. High school students do not have “phys-ry”. Each high school student chooses the most interesting sport for him and goes in for it quite professionally. Fortunately, the technical equipment of educational institutions (gymnastics halls, courts, football and basketball fields) allows for training at the highest level.
In addition to sports, there are usually many clubs based on interests at the American school: someone plays in the theater, another visits a debate club, and a third studies the basics of painting.
But homework in the States is given a little. At the same time, often, its implementation also requires the child to be present at school – the guys prepare reports and work on creative projects, sitting in the school library.
Performance monitoring
In America, the letter system of grading is used: A, B, C, D, F, where A is the equivalent of the Russian “five” and F is the “two”. By the way, each of the ratings, except for F, can be accompanied by a + or – sign. Based on school grades, an average GPA score (grade point average) is formed. This indicator is usually required when entering a university.
Another important form of performance monitoring in the US school system is the test. American children get acquainted with the annual testing procedure towards the end of elementary school. Test results affect how prestigious the next educational institution will be in a child’s life. The better the student studied in middle school, the higher the class will be high school. The higher the scores in high school, the higher the GPA, which means more chances to get into a good college.
In addition, tests (which, by the way, are developed by the city or state board of education) are not only a way to assess the performance of students, but also a test of the effectiveness of the school staff.
The system of secondary education in the United States is mainly aimed at preparing the child as effectively as possible for studying at the university. That is why studying at an American school is a great start for children from abroad who would like to get a higher education in the States.

This center is awesome! We have only been at this center a little over a week it is like night and day from the previous center we were enrolled in. The Center Director Kristen always takes my child from me in the morning and he always smiles. My son started crawling within the first week of starting at KinderCare. Ms. Renee, Ms. Vanessa, Ms. Melissa and Ms. Kristen are amazing. It is evident that the staff cares for the children and wants them to learn and grow while in their care. I could not ask for better care for my son.

When my sons were babies, they want to KC in Buena Park and they loved it. Now they’re parents and my grandson needed to be in daycare when he was 11 months old…so I naturally thought of KC. He was there until he was 2-1/2, and then I transferred him to the Lab School since I work at Fuller College. When he turned five I took him back to KC and it was like he never left. He was welcomed back with opened arms…Kristen Funk, the Director, was there when Shawn first started, as well as Ms. Sherry and Ms. Rene. They have always been there for me, and it’s been a place they Shawn always feels happy to go back to.These next two weeks will be his last ones there before kindergarten. Thank you KC for playing such an important role in the lives of my sons and grandson!

Overall
Not the place for your child
This school keeps on changing their teachers. My first child has been through 3 teachers in less than a year alone! My 2nd child has been with 2 teachers in a span of 5 months!! School does not inform parents that their child’s teacher is leaving. Teacher qualifications are poor. Most of them are still students taking their degree in education. Class sizes are always at max or even more because they keep on sending some 3 year olds to 2 year old classroom or 4 yr olds to 3yr old classrooms. Teachers instilling fear among the kids when they misbehave. Curriculum is okay. Not challenging enough. There’s no writing or reading programs for 4 yr olds. When I drop my kids in the morning, the classrooms are usually filled with crying, cranky, unhappy children. I eventually took my kids out of this school. Beware of this particular Kindercare branch. This is definitely not the place you want your kids to be.

Julia Fullerton-Batten: The Art of the Curve – Photar.
ru
Photo: Julia Fullerton-Batten
Photo artist Julia Fullerton-Batten and Hasselblad brand ambassador create photographs that are infused with cinematic and hyper-realism. Many of her projects are shown in unexpected and surreal settings.
In her projects Julia often uses the so-called dramatic lighting in order to convey the tension and mystery of what is happening at the same time. This gives her works a mystery that pushes the viewer to constantly rethink the picture, because every time something new comes to the fore.

Her fine art photographs are world renowned. Many works are exhibited internationally. Julia Fullerton-Batten has won countless awards internationally. Her photographs are often published in photo magazines, she has also published two books and is a frequent speaker at international seminars and is a member of the jury of international competitions.
Images by Julia Fullerton-Batten were featured on the cover of The Guide to Collecting Contemporary Photography. In addition, many of the photographer’s works are in the permanent collection of the National Portrait Gallery, the Élysée Museum, Lausanne and the Parliamentary Art Collection, Houses of Parliament.

Overwhelmed by the sheer strength and flexibility of a young troupe of acrobat girls, Hasselblad Ambassador Julia Fullerton-Batten decided to shoot a stunning photo project featuring these girls flexing in all sorts of unimaginable poses.
Using her signature cinematic style and recognizable lighting against the backdrop of impressive venues she found throughout England, Julia’s photographs provide us with a fresh look at one of the oldest forms of physical art dating back to ancient civilizations.

Julia, tell us how did you find this acrobat troupe? And tell us a little about these girls.
Girls range in age from 12 to 16 years old. Most of them I found through their trainer, Pixie Le Not, who starred in Game of Thrones and my short film Frost Fair 1814. Some of them started doing gymnastics and then found out they were super flexible and now take acrobatics very seriously. I have been following them on social networks for a long time and I am always aware of all the events in which they participate. This is a wonderful, tightly knit, fun group of girls.
Photo: Julia Fullerton-Batten
How did you manage to create such a good environment for all these young girls to feel at ease during the shooting of the project?
Most girls are used to performing on stage. As with all athletes, it is very important for acrobats to properly warm up before shooting by exercising and practicing stretching. I make sure they have as much time on set as they want to pose. I also alternate them, when one gets tired, she rests, and another comes in her place.
It takes a lot of physical strength to assume a posture, especially a deep backbend, as all other muscles are used to protect the spine. Interestingly, on the day of the performance, the girls eat very little. It makes sense!
Photo: Julia Fullerton-Batten
Julia, tell us about how you found all these great locations for this project.
One of my favorite places, the former Carmel College in Oxfordshire was the only known Jewish boarding school in Europe. From 19From 48 to 1998, it provided a first-class education almost exclusively for Jewish students, initially only for boys, girls were accepted later, from about 1986.
This school has often topped the list of the most expensive boarding schools in the UK, and since 1970 it has been nicknamed the “Jewish Eton” for its academic excellence and special cultural affinity. In 1997 the school was closed for financial reasons and most of the buildings fell into disrepair. I was attracted by the uniqueness of the rooms, but due to COVID-19I had to wait several months to be able to shoot there!
Photo: Julia Fullerton-Batten
The second of my “members only” locations is a spectacular four-story Georgian townhouse in east London that offers private parties – striptease, etc. A door hidden in a bookcase opens up to exotic, decadent rooms. You might get the impression that you’ve stepped into a Baz Luhrmann movie set that oozes quirkiness and sophistication. This place has been closed for months due to COVID-19, but I got special permission to shoot and took advantage of this opportunity.
Photo: Julia Fullerton-Batten
The final filming location is an award-winning architect’s home inspired by a 1970s sci-fi movie. The house was designed by architect Adam Richards. Nestled in a secluded valley, the traditional brick building, in the style of a historic Roman villa ruin, contains grandiose concrete-lined rooms modeled after those seen in Andrey Tarkovsky’s sci-fi film Stalker.79 years old.
Modernist house built in the countryside in place of an old farmhouse is as far removed from British rural architecture as one can imagine. I was allowed to bring in most of the family’s belongings and art, turning it into a harsh, brutal gallery.
Photo: Julia Fullerton-Batten
What did you focus on to bring this idea to life?
For most of my fine art creations, the architectural setting is important to me. I try to remove as many things from the rooms as possible and then fill them with appropriate props to create the story I’m telling.
Only small adjustments are needed to create the setting – corn flakes spilling out of the package on the floor, boxing gloves hanging in the gym locker room, a fan standing on the floor, a girl holding a bottle of perfume. I come up with scripts for specific stories and then spend hours searching prop houses for the best props. I do not allow myself any compromise solutions.
Photo: Julia Fullerton-Batten
Julia, how did you choose clothes for these acrobats?
The girls’ wardrobe was complex, as they had to be able to easily and comfortably bend in certain poses, but at the same time wear clothes that would not hide the shape of their body – otherwise the twisted figure would be hidden from view. We spent a day of trying on clothes and trying out moves in my garden in West London in the summer of 2020. It was a lot of fun and the girls were very excited!
Photo: Julia Fullerton-Batten
How did the camera help you Hasselblad H6D-100C in this shoot?
Combined with the lenses and accessories I use, the H6D-100c represents my ideal for optimal simplicity and unsurpassed image quality. The latter is very important to me as I exhibit very large prints (mostly over 1 meter wide). I love shooting with the H6D-100c.

Kings Education at California State University Fullerton | Education in the USA
Kings Education is an international educational group with more than half a century of history. The first language school was opened in 1957 in Bournemouth in the UK. In 2010, the network began operating in the United States. Today Kings has 3 schools in America, 4 in Britain, as well as centers for preparing students for admission to universities in the US and the UK. The choice of programs is extensive: language courses for youth and adults, preparation programs for entering foreign universities, vacation programs for schoolchildren. The level of teaching and organization of the educational process is confirmed by many awards, including the ESL award in 2017 and the UK Entrepreneurship Queen’s Award in 2016.
One of the Kings Education locations is Fullerton , California. Here, on the basis of California State University Fullerton (CSUF), programs are conducted for foreign students planning to enter one of the US universities.
CSUF is California’s premier public institution. It has over 40,000 students. California State University Fullerton has 8 colleges offering more than 100 undergraduate, graduate and doctoral programs. Credits received while studying under the Kings Education program at CSUF can be credited for admission to any of the California universities, including California State University Fullerton itself or another American university.
Kings Education programs are hosted by California State University Fullerton. The urban campus is located in the northeast of Fullerton, in the center of Orange County. Founded in 1957, the university began to actively rebuild in the late 1960s. Under the direction of architect Howard van Hoeklin, futuristic buildings were erected, including the Pollack Library (South), Titan Shops, the Humanities Campus, and McCarthy Hall. In the 90s, the College Park Building, Steven G. Mihaylo Hall, University Hall, the student union center, art centers, etc. appeared. The university also includes a unique field station – the Desert Study Center.
The sports infrastructure of California State University Fullerton is represented by a modern sports center where students can practice swimming, rock climbing, as well as sports such as badminton, basketball, football, frisbee, volleyball, etc. CSUF is a member of the NCAA Division I. University sports teams have won 13 national championships in 8 different sports.
The university pays great attention to the all-round development of its students. There are more than 350 student clubs and organizations, including the Entrepreneur Club, Video Game Design Club, Civil Engineers Society, Absurd Chamber Club, Student TV, and more.
Kings Education offers the following study programs to international students at California State University Fullerton:
GO:50,

They are designed for students with a strong command of English and academic subjects.

After completing 2 courses, it is possible to transfer to another, more rated university. Thanks to this approach, students receive a bachelor’s degree in 4 years, like ordinary American students.

My experience of attending schools in Sarasota County for 13 years was a roller coaster! As the years went by, school was getting harder each time. There’re days where I was stressed of having a spelling test to having a 100-question exam. I had loops going in my head with all this craziness happening, but all the help came from the best teachers in Sarasota County. Thanks to them for giving me the right education I needed.

I have spent my student life in the Sarasota County District. I have enjoyed every minute of it. My first years were at Toledo Blade Elementary a very old but, lovable school, my other 3 schools were almost new with excellent facilities, with great teachers and good administrations. They make you feel important and planted on me the seed of education. The most important thing for me to change is the high tolerance to bullies and to students that disrespect authorities(teachers and staff), vandalize, and don’t pay the consequences. The district should be more strict to actually prepare us for the real world. Another thing I would like to improve is the variety of sports offered at the middle school level. Basketball, Volleyball, track and tenis are the only choices.
My name is Jayla King. I went to Booker High all four of my high school years and I’ve had quite a journey. I am now a senior graduating in 2019. Booker High School offers; VPA, many clubs, and a successful life. The teachers are outstanding and go out of their way to make sure the students are college and career ready. Booker High School also has high security which makes students feel safe. Sarasota County Schools are great!

Top Rated Schools in Sarasota
When thinking about relocating your family to a different city or state, quality education is always a top-of-mind criterion.
If you’re considering investing in Sarasota real estate, you’re in luck. Sarasota County is home to a number of outstanding schools, including the number one high school in all of Florida. Below are a few of the best Sarasota schools, both elementary and secondary, to help make your decisions a little easier.
Pine View School for the Gifted
Location: 1 Python Path, Osprey, FL
Pine View is a public elementary and secondary school for grades 2 to 12. Not only is it among the best Sarasota schools, it’s also considered the number one high school in Florida.
The school has about 2,000 students, with an 18:1 student-to-teacher ratio. State test scores indicate a 99 percent proficiency in both English and math.
It focuses heavily on college preparation – 98 percent of students graduate. In order to graduate, students must maintain a certain GPA, and pass an advanced class in a foreign language.
Pine View is committed to producing well-rounded students, so extra-curricular – rowing, Model UN, field trips, and volunteer opportunities – are a priority.
The school is less than a 10-minute drive from The Oaks, one of the more luxurious Sarasota neighborhoods. Here, you’ll find beautifully landscaped yards and architecture with Spanish, Mediterranean, and Southern influences.

Bay Haven School of Basics Plus
Location: 290 W. Tamiami Cir., Sarasota, FL
This North Sarasota public school provides students with a high-quality education for nearly 600 students from K to 5th grade.
With math and English proficiency well above the state average, this school is considered a magnet for students outside the geographic boundaries. The teacher-student ratio here is about 15:1, allowing for innovative classroom initiatives like Manatee Moolah, earned for being respectful and responsible, the Student Leadership Team, and visits from Boomer the dog.
This school is in close proximity to many sought-after neighborhoods, giving you plenty of options when considering buying Sarasota real estate. It is located less than 10 minutes by car from properties in West of Trail, as well as beautiful Bird Key, St. Armand’s Circle and Lido Key.
This elite private school provides quality education for K to 12th grade, as well as pre-kindergarten – a unique opportunity for kids to build a strong academic community during their formative years.

NOTE this all needs to be changed. This is not correct. Out-of-Door is the only K to 12 school on Siesta Key, a charming barrier island of white sand beaches and clear, blue waters. Its beaches are frequently ranked among the best in the world. The school is located a stone’s throw from many beachfront and pool properties in some of the most laid-back Sarasota neighborhoods.

SARASOTA, FL — Pine View School in Osprey is the top school in Sarasota County, according to a new national ranking by U.S. News and World Report.

The 2022 ranking of best high schools is intended to show how well the nation’s public schools serve all students, regardless of achievement level, by teaching them basic skills and preparing them for college-level work, according to a news release from U. S. News.

While thousands of schools were evaluated, these Sarasota County schools were ranked among the top in Florida, according to U.S. News:
Pine View School, Osprey. Ranked No. 2 in Florida
Suncoast Polytechnical High School, Sarasota. Ranked No. 59 in Florida
Riverview High School, Sarasota. Ranked No. 80 in Florida
Venice Senior High School, Venice. Ranked No. 150 in Florida
Imagine School at North Port, North Port. Ranked No. 206 in Florida

Sarasota Military Academy, Sarasota. Ranked No. 347 in Florida
Booker High School, Sarasota. Ranked No. 408 in Florida
Pine View is also ranked No. 24 in the U.S.
This year, the top 15 schools nationally are in 14 different states.
Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Alexandria, Virginia, was ranked No. 1 in the nation, as well as among magnet schools.
Here are the top 10 schools in this year’s national Best High Schools ranking:
Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology – Alexandria, Virginia
Academic Magnet High School – North Charleston, South Carolina
Signature School – Evansville, Indiana
School for Advanced Studies – Miami, Florida
Payton College Preparatory High School – Chicago, Illinois
The Davidson Academy of Nevada – Reno, Nevada
Central Magnet School – Murfreesboro, Tennessee
The School for the Talented and Gifted – Dallas, Texas
Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science and Technology – Lawrenceville, Georgia
Julia R. Masterman Secondary School – Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
This year’s schools were ranked on six measures: college readiness, college curriculum breadth, state assessment performance, state assessment proficiency, reading and math proficiency, reading and math performance, underserved student performance and graduation rates.
The data used in this year’s ranking is from the 2019-20 academic school year. U.S. News adjusted its calculation of these measures to account for the impact COVID-19 had on schools in the 2019-20 school year.
Since most states closed schools for in-person instruction starting in March 2020 — typically just before most states conduct assessments — the U.S. Department of Education granted waivers allowing all states to forgo state testing for the 2019-20 school year.
To account for this, U.S. News relied on past assessment data from the
three prior ranking years. Researchers also incorporated state science assessment data from the 2018-19 school year.
Read more about the Best High Schools methodology.
In addition to the national rankings, U.S. News also published rankings at the state, metro area and school district levels. Only metro areas and school districts with three or more high schools were included in these subrankings.
Signature School in Indiana is at the top of the list for charter schools, and Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Virginia is the No. 1 magnet school. The Davidson Academy of Nevada is the top STEM school.

America’s Best State for Retirees
The American news publication US News & World Report has published a ranking of the best US cities for retirees in 2020-2021. The study involved 150 metropolitan areas, which were evaluated according to several criteria: the happiness of local residents, housing affordability, tax rates and the quality of the healthcare system. The first places in the ranking were occupied by the cities of the state of Florida – we are reviewing the top five of them.

Sarasota is a seaside resort in southwest Florida on the Gulf Coast. In addition to the mild climate and award-winning beaches, cultural life is flourishing here, shopping and the restaurant industry are developing.
Nature lovers will love the city, with several green spaces, including the massive Myakka River State Park, and plenty of golf courses. The most popular beaches are Siesta with white sand and Lido with a wide strip of coastline. If they are crowded, Longbow Beach, Venice Beach, Bradenton Beach, or the beaches of Anna Maria Island are all within a short drive of the city.
All this is attracting more and more new residents and tourists to Sarasota, thanks to which the city is growing, building up the scale. At the same time, the economy is also strengthening – the labor market is expanding, in particular for workers in the healthcare and tourism sectors. Small business owners are also feeling more confident.
A large number of people aged 65+ live in the city. It is not surprising, because it is the pensioners who have the most active life here than anyone else. There are many institutions in Sarasota whose activities are aimed at social support and the development of activities among the elderly. A particularly busy season is from October to April.
However, Sarasota is also suitable for younger people and families. You should not expect such a variety of nightlife as, for example, in Miami, but there is access to good schools, parks and attractions. Bars, restaurants and craft breweries are also popular in Sarasota.

How much does it cost to live in Sarasota?
It’s cheaper to live here than in larger areas of Florida like Miami. However, young families note that it has become more difficult to buy a house. The rise in prices was influenced by the influx of wealthy people who are looking for a comfortable life.
According to the Numbeo website, the monthly expenses for a family of four are $3,762 without rent, and $1,040 per person. You can rent a one-bedroom apartment in the city center for an average of $1560, outside the center – for $1256. At the same time, the purchase price is $3,779 per square meter in the center of Sarasota, away from it – $1,628.

Fort Myers is located on the banks of the Calusahatchee River in the southwest of the state. Despite the fact that the city is growing and developing, it retains the legacy of the once small provincial town. A cozy center with compact shops and restaurants, many of which, by the way, are dog friendly. Museums, festivals, theaters, parks, historical sites and art galleries – all this decorates the city and has a rich social and cultural life.
In general, this city is one of the busiest on the coast of the bay. And the local Barbara B. Mann Hall of the Arts, the Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre, and the Arcade Theater often have out-of-town guests.
Not only cultural life is developed here. In the immediate vicinity of the city there is a beach of the same name, and across the bridge – the island of Sanibel. Both locations are very popular with boaters, kayakers and sailors. There are also rowing and fishing tournaments on the water.
Over a quarter of the local population is over 65 years of age. But there is also a younger population that flocks to Fort Myers for work. A large number of young families also live in the city – there are slightly more couples here than single people.

Port St. Lucie is located on the southeast side of the state, halfway between Miami and Orlando. This town is distinguished from large neighbors by a calm atmosphere, quiet clean streets, numerous canals and other water areas.
The St. Lucie River is an important part of city life, a valuable resource used both for fishing and recreational activities such as boating. In general, walking along the river embankment and the nearest beaches is one of the most popular entertainments in the region.
People also “walk professionally” on trails at the Oxbow Ecocenter, Savannas Preserve State Park, and Botanical Gardens. In the latter, by the way, family entertainment programs and jazz evenings for adults are regularly held.
However, in Port St. Lucie, the emphasis is not only on natural virtues, but also on the comfort and convenience of recreation. So, the all-inclusive resort Club Med Sandpiper Bay also operates in the city. Here you can relax in spas, visit restaurants, go kayaking, swim in pools and much more.
The MidFlorida Credit Union Events Center offers a cultural program. Everyone comes here – both pensioners and preschoolers. The former play racquetball, the latter are busy with children’s entertainment.
There are cultural events and festivals in the city, most of which take place from November to February. The most famous are the Oktoberfest, the Festival of Lights, the Taste of Little Italy and the Food Truck Invasion.
There are 25.6% of pensioners (65+) in the city, slightly more people aged 45 to 64 years old – 27.2%. People, including the elderly, are attracted by the warm climate, low cost of living, access to water and an abundance of good medical facilities. Families, in particular those with small children, rely on the low crime rate and the high quality of local schools.

How much does it cost to live in Port Saint Lucie?
So far, housing in this area (except for the very center of the city) is more affordable than in other parts of South Florida. By 2019a year, the average price of real estate rose to $221,000. However, as the popularity of the city grows, the situation may change. This is evidenced by the fact that the cost of the grocery basket and bills in restaurants have already increased. True, the overall cost of living is still lower than in other counties of a similar size.
According to the Numbeo website, renting a one-bedroom apartment in the city center costs $1,100 on average, and $987 outside the city center. At the same time, the purchase price is $5,209 per square meter in the center of Port St. Lucie, and $2,418 away from it.

Naples is located in the district of Collier. Traditionally, it also includes the area of Immokali and the island of Marco.
Naples and Marco is a favorite place for wealthy pensioners who love warmth, gorgeous beaches, huge golf courses and expensive restaurants. This luxury is combined with the simplicity of the countryside, where cattle are grazed and tomatoes are harvested from the fields.
This area is characterized by the so-called seasonal tides, which relate to the inflow and outflow of people. During the winter months, Americans from colder states come here en masse to enjoy the warmth and sun. But with the onset of the hot summer months, they again leave Naples and Marco Island.
The local beaches are the most attractive, including for professional yachtsmen and fishermen.
But natural attractions are concentrated not only on the coast. So, the local reserve Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary is popular. It has almost 4 km of trails through the prairies, swamps to the largest and oldest cypress forest in North America.
Another “green gem” is the Big Cypress National Wildlife Refuge. Its almost 300 km hectare can be explored by bikes, canoes, kayaks and – for the most active – on foot. There are also small parks – Clam Pass Park, Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park and Barefoot Beach Reserve, which are concentrated closer to the densely populated western part of the county.
Lovers of social entertainment should pay attention to the Seminole casino in Immokali, restaurants and shops on the south Fifth Avenue in Naples or jazz concerts in Cambier Park. And you can explore the history and heritage of the region at the Baker Museum.
The gastronomic sector is represented not only by restaurants, but also by annual festivals. The first is dedicated to seafood and is held in Everglades City, a small fishing town 45 km east of Marco Island. The second is the Winter Wine Festival in Naples.
Collier County as a whole has long been a desirable destination for upscale retirement. Nothing has changed – to this day it continues to attract wealthy older people with its warm weather, high standard of living, good beaches and well-groomed areas.
But young people are not uncommon here either. The thing is that the “neighbors” of the city are Florida Gulf Coast University in neighboring Lee County and SouthWestern State College with a campus near Naples. Also, young people are attracted here by breweries, dive bars, clubs and other coastal establishments.

How much does it cost to live in Naples?
To live closer to the coast and / or the center, you will have to pay more, especially in Naples and Marco Island. Proximity to the beach, plenty of sun and no income tax have their drawbacks: the growth and development of the region goes hand in hand with a lack of affordable housing. In 2019year, the average cost of housing in the region was $95,000 higher than in the country!
But there’s a little bonus: Collier County residents can get a voucher that lets them pay no beach parking fees. Such a document is issued on the basis of confirmation of the place of residence, a valid driver’s license and registration of the vehicle.
According to the Numbeo website, renting a one-bedroom apartment in the city center costs $1,800 on average, and $1,394 outside the city center. At the same time, the purchase price is $9831 per square meter in the center of Naples, away from it – $3094.

Ocala is known as the horse capital of the world! And while the area is thriving and growing into a more diverse community, equestrianism is still valued here.
The city is surrounded by large green pastures and horse farms, and in its historic center – houses of the Victorian era, organically included in an active social life.
Gastronomy, nightlife, creative events, concerts of symphony orchestras, ballet performances, breweries, meetings of artists, filmmakers and sculptors – all this offers Ocala to its residents and guests.
Still, the main attractions of the city are natural beauties. The most famous of them are Silver Springs State Park, Marjorie Harris Carr Cross Florida Greenway Ecotrails.
The city and its surrounding areas used to be inhabited mainly by pensioners. Half of the population is now under 50 years of age. However, senior citizens over the age of 65 still reside in Ocala. They are also an active part of the community.

To St.
Petersburg via American highways – Fan zone
…Oh, how good is evergreen Florida in spring, when the sun warms gently and gently, and the cool blue expanse of the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico is not yet threatened by hurricanes. We’re driving from Sarasota to… St. Petersburg, about 90 miles.
Mikhail Rostarchuk
Before getting behind the wheel of a Honda CR-V, I went through an educational program taught by compatriots who settled in Sarasota relatively long ago. So, the maximum speed, depending on the class of the road, varies here in the range from 50 to 85 mph (from 80.5 to 136.85 km/h). violations of traffic rules (speed limit, traffic lights, ignoring road signs or road markings), including always half-empty roads between cottage settlements and local driveways within these fenced areas. In addition, one should keep in mind and be wary of powerful police cars without “war paint” with hidden flashing lights, for example, Dodge Charger, reckless defilers incognito in the stream and standing in the tail, followed by radar fixing the fact of exceeding the allowed speed. And the fines here are ruinous and the corresponding “letters of happiness” come rigorously.
Paying fines in America is inevitable with rapidly accruing late fees. Non-payment is followed by a significant punishment in the dollar (up to 1500) and even imprisonment.
Speeding “costs” $50 to $500 in the US; blocking the intersection – 450; driving on the side of the road – 485; unfastened seat belt – 50; careless, careless driving, dangerous maneuvering – from 220 to 1000; disobeying a traffic policeman or trying to escape from him – up to a year in prison.
“KNOCKING” IS RECOMMENDED
At the same time, in America, snitching on the roads is widely practiced and welcomed, for which pointers stick out along the highways with phone numbers that should be reported to those who do not respect traffic rules, The fact that this type of civic activity relentless, like a service at McDonald’s, I experienced it myself: after my departure for Moscow, friends reported a couple of “letters of happiness” sent at the request of vigilant random fellow travelers to the owner of the CR-V.
The first letter from a resident of the cottage community said that I was driving too fast on an internal driveway – 30 mph instead of the allowed 25 – they issued a fine of $100. The second letter stated that the driver of the car following me noticed how I exceeded – slightly, by three miles – the speed in the area of the “School” sign. And despite the fact that it was in the evening, when there were no schoolchildren nearby, the fine was $200!
It’s a shame. But if, by and large, the “squealing” American-German experience of public fixing of traffic violations (including using a mobile phone or an on-board video recorder) impresses me. Such a struggle with reckless drivers, tough drivers and impudent ones significantly reduces the intensity of passions and outrages on the roads.
WHERE IS MY BLACK GUN?
It is also true that, as the Americans told me, on the roads of the southern states, drivers treat each other with respect for another reason. People have a lot of weapons in their hands. And if someone dissatisfied with your driving style jumps out of the car and heads towards you with a bat, or climbs to sort things out by force against a hesitant pedestrian, then such a “cool” driver has a lot of chances to get a bullet in the stomach right there. The shooter is likely to be acquitted. It’s time for us to adopt the best practices of correct driving …
So, the first thing that pleasantly surprises a driver from the Russian Federation is disciplined behavior, the driving culture of all road users, including pedestrians and motorcyclists, the respectful attitude of drivers to each other and intolerance towards those who violate traffic rules. As soon as I slowed down on the left turn due to reflections embracing a novice in an alien traffic situation, and move into the yellow light of a traffic light with the arrow turned off, indignant carriers immediately hummed from neighboring lanes: what, they say, are you breaking!
THESE GUYS ARE NOT FUCKED WITH THESE GUYS
But for the federal highway police, the toughest in the USA, everyone and special respect. With these fellows, always neatly and immaculately dressed, driving around, or standing on the side of the road in a car with a special color-graphic coloring, no one dares to mess with. At their direction, they pull over to the side of the road, open the driver’s window and put their hands on the steering wheel. And they wait until a roadside serviceman comes up, explains the reason for the “braking” and only at his direction they politely stretch out the driver’s “crusts” prepared in advance. Everyone knows that it is more expensive to argue with these slaves, and their hoods are always unbuttoned. But they will quickly and effectively help if you find yourself in a difficult situation on the highway, and at the same time they will check on the computer how many traffic violations you have accumulated over the year, and therefore penalty points. If more than what is indicated in the law of this state, then you can lose your “rights” for a while and be subject to various penalties, including tangible sanctions from insurance agencies.
NIGHT – TIME OF ROAD BREAKERS
I note that in broad daylight, a massive American driver rarely violates traffic rules and, in particular, the speed limit. The maximum that he will allow himself is to exceed the speed by 5-10 miles. And even then, if he does not see a police limousine in front or behind.
Large informational road signs on highways – scientifically selected green with white letters – the eye perceives this combination better and earlier. On almost all signs, the pictogram is duplicated by a word, a short text, speed limit signs are most often white with black text.
But everything changes when night falls. As a rule, highways are not illuminated, only over large interchanges or especially important intersections, a glow burns in the half of the sky. And the people “unleash”, drown on black, famously maneuver, drive the unhurried distant ones. Even huge trucks sometimes become fireballs. And since the traffic lane in the USA is 80 cm narrower than ours, when I once had to drive along a night federal highway with two lanes in one direction and a concrete curb on the left side of the road, it was very uncomfortable in the neighborhood not only with such crazy trucks, but and large SUVs.
FROM SARASOTA… cottages from large cities of the North-West for winter and spring), surrounded by many islands with white sandy beaches (among the best in the world ranking) for every taste – from crowded with entertainment to pristine deserted. There is a lake with warm healing mineral water, a wonderful botanical garden.
Sarasota includes Bradenton, home to the world-famous international tennis school.
But Sarasota, which is only 95 years old, is special because, thanks to the generosity of the philanthropists of the 20s and their followers, it has also become a city of theaters, jazz festivals, fine arts and antique shops, collection stores clothes.
Thus, in the Ringling Art Museum there is the largest collection of works by Rubens and other Western European artists of the old schools, the possession of which even our Hermitage can envy. On the stage of the opera house, concert hall, drama theater and ballet theater with their own corpses and a symphony orchestra, world-class performers and groups (including from Russia) perform on tour – such a rich cultural life is rare for provincial America, but that is why Sarasota is especially visited tourists and vacationers from all over the country, many of whom come in their cars.
Downtown Sarasota, with typical high-rise urban development and rush-hour traffic, is small – its inhabitants live mostly in numerous elite cottage communities, some of which are located on the water’s edge of the bays and on the islands of the Gulf of Mexico. Streets and avenues densely link the city and towns with state highways and highways stretching into Florida from the north and west. And we follow them to St. Petersburg…
… TO PETER
So, on a beautiful sunny day, I’m leaving Sarasota for St. Petersburg. American. In the state of Florida. And there are also his “namesakes” in the states of Missouri and Pennsylvania. Although the “Floridian” is the most famous due to the fact that the seaside resort center (360 sunny days) with a mild tropical climate is located here.
CONCRETE AUTTORAY
Ideal American concrete – two lanes in one direction, two – in the opposite direction, between them mostly a forest belt or a wide concrete curb. 11 am, weekday, there are few cars on the tracks. The navigator in a pleasant female voice announces ahead of time the exits from the highway to go from the 70th to the 75th and 275th interstate highways. For the sake of curiosity, I check the voice information with road signs – everything is clear. The most frustrating thing is to keep the speed, not deviating much from the authorized 75 or 70 mph – the cruise control does not work!
The roads are generously studded with main and duplicate road signs of all kinds, they are clearly visible and logical to elementary clarity. As a rule (at least in Florida), the right turn is allocated to a special exit and is allowed at a red traffic light, but with a mandatory stop before entering a perpendicular road. Above each intersection, in fact, over each lane, there is a traffic light. Left turns usually have their own dedicated lane.
The track rolls down to the Gulf of Mexico. Here is the first bridge over the wide Menati River, then the big interchange, along which I move to Highway 275, and finally, the turquoise expanse of Tampa Bay opens under the blue dome of the sky, which is crossed out by the Sunshine Skyway Bridge automobile bridge in a huge arc.
SOLAR FLIGHT BRIDGE
The name of this engineering flight translates as “solar trestle bridge”). It is indeed a rare handsome man: it begins with two flyovers raised above the waves for ten meters, stretching from both sides of the bay. By the middle of the transition, they are very steeply rearing up, uphill, where the cable-stayed pylons of the main span have risen above the very middle of the bay: a flight of engineering thought made of steel and concrete! The length of this graceful structure is 6.6 km, the width is 29m (two lanes in both directions), the height of the entire structure is 131 m, the height of the arch of the bridge, under which ships pass – 53 m! It was built for five years, put into operation in 1987, cost the treasury $ 244 million. Steel cables-cables are enclosed in 84 pipes-cables with a diameter of 9 inches (22.86 cm), they support the main “hanging” span. “Traval Chanal” listed this “sunny” bridge in the list of the ten best in the world at number three.

163353
When I began to rise sharply up this, as it seemed, narrow bridge to the sky, and above the bay, I felt some inner thrill: what is it like to climb up in a storm or hurricane? What if the engine stalls? It’s scary… But what a view into the distant sea and the distant ones, which turned out to be somewhere below the shores of the bay, along which a white ship slowly cut through the waves. It is a pity that stopping on the bridge is prohibited.
After descending from the bridge, in ten minutes you enter the Pinellas Peninsula, surrounded by the waters of two bays – the small Tampa and the huge Mexican one. Where the city of St. Petersburg is located, we will be twinned with our Northern capital.
THE RUSSIANS HAVE COME
Our compatriot, a nobleman, captain of the Jaeger Guards Regiment, guarding the Tsar’s residences, Pyotr Alekseevich Dementiev, decisively participated in its foundation in 1892 and in obtaining such a sonorous name. Having suddenly retired for family reasons, he left to manage the vast parental estate in the Tver province. However, he got bored, sold the estate, and with his wife and four children went to seek his fortune across the ocean. At first he was in poverty, then he turned around, became a large lumber merchant, began building railroads, and reached Florida.
He liked it here so much that he decided to build a “city of sun and flowers” on the shore of the bay. Managed. He also took part in its planning, remembering the favorite lines of Vasilyevsky Island. He built the Detroit Hotel, which has survived in its original form to this day – it is considered the largest and most fashionable in this city with many parks, snow-white sandy parks, marinas, impudent pelicans, museums, art galleries, universities, theaters.
However, as is usual in America, this energetic and talented Russian man soon went bankrupt and died in obscurity under the adopted name of Mr. Peter Demens.
The first thing you’ll notice about researching human resources (HR) jobs is that there are a lot of them. Titles like specialist, generalist and assistant pair with seemingly every focus area from timekeeping to labor relations. If you’re new to the world of HR, you’ll likely have a hard time sorting out which HR positions net the highest salaries, which are specializations and which are entry-level jobs.
Money isn’t everything, of course, but human resource salaries and earning potentials are still an important piece of the puzzle for anyone considering a career in this field. We’ve compiled this list of common HR job titles to help you better handle on the earning potential, level of education needed and the type of work these roles are typically responsible for.
9 Common HR job titles and salaries
Ready to get a better feel for different types of HR roles and the potentially life-trajectory-changing salaries that come with them? Read on to get started!
1.
HR assistant
Often the starting point for many in this field, the role of an HR assistant typically centers on supporting the human resources department by completing clerical tasks. They’re responsible for recording and compiling employee data, such as absences, disciplinary actions, supervisor reports and termination information, according to the Department of Labor (DOL).1 They keep records updated and organized and retrieve information for managers when it’s needed.
2019 Median annual salary: $41,4301
Job outlook: The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects a one-percent growth rate for HR assistant positions from 2019 through 2029. This is a slower rate of growth than the average occupation. These jobs are certainly out there but may not have as many opportunities and availabilities as others in HR.
Education needed: HR assistants typically need some college training or an Associate’s degree, according to the DOL. 1 For some employers, related job experience might be acceptable in place of education.
2. Payroll and timekeeping clerk
Payroll and timekeeping clerks handle data related to employee time and payment, according to the DOL.1 Tasks may vary depending on the company they work for, but these professionals are generally the ones who review timesheets, enter commissions and wages, prepare paychecks and enter new employee information as needed.
2019 Median annual salary: $46,1801
Job outlook: Employment of payroll and timekeeping clerks is projected to slightly decline from 2019–2029, according to the DOL. While that employment growth rate is slower than the national average for all jobs, HR is still projected to be adding around 15,800 new payroll and timekeeping clerk jobs between 2018–2028.1
Education needed: A high school diploma or equivalent can be enough for some payroll and timekeeping clerks. The DOL reports 39 percent of respondents for this occupation as holding a high school diploma, with the rest having some college training or an Associate’s degree.1
3. HR specialist
The HR specialist job title encompasses many of the primary HR positions, such as recruiter and HR generalist, according to the BLS.2 Typically, these professionals recruit, screen, interview and place employees, while also handling tasks related to employee relations and orientation.
Human resources specialists might also administer benefits, process payroll and field problems. HR specialists also tend to have a strategic focus for their companies, planning and hiring to fit current and future needs. In short, these specialists are the skilled HR professionals who handle a large portion of the execution of day-to-day initiatives.
2019 Median annual salary: $61,9202
Job outlook: From 2019 to 2029, employment of HR specialists is projected to grow at a rate of seven percent, according to the BLS. 2 One notable change in the job market for these roles is that many HR specialist positions are now being outsourced to specialized agency-style providers, like talent recruitment firms or benefits administration providers.
Education needed: HR specialists typically need a Bachelor’s degree in Business or Human Resources, according to the BLS.
4. Training and development specialist
Have you ever watched a training video in your first week of a new job? If so, you have an idea of at least some of what training and development specialists do. They’re the folks responsible for the design, planning and administration of training programs intended to develop employee skills and competencies.
This includes deciding what information employees need to know to train in, creating training documents, presenting information to employees, updating existing training materials and evaluating the need for new options. This is an important role for organizations to fully integrate and develop their employees to their maximum potentials.
2019 Median annual salary: $61,2102
Job outlook: Employment of training and development specialists is projected to grow nine percent from 2019 to 2029, according to the BLS. Many industries require continuous education and training of employees to keep up with changing regulations, trends and best practices. This helps spur demand for training and development HR specialists.
The growing use of media and technology in many companies is also creating more demand for training and development specialists who can train their employees in the new systems.
Education needed: Training and development specialists typically need a Bachelor’s degree, according to the BLS.2 Many positions may also require work experience in areas such as training and development or similar occupations, such as human resources specialists or teachers.
While not typically required, candidates looking for an extra edge could also pursue certification in training and development from organizations like the Association for Talent Development or International Society for Performance Improvement. Additionally, broader HR certification from the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM®) can be an asset.
5. Compensation/benefits specialist
This HR specialty centers around what brings employees back day after day: their paychecks and the benefits that come with them! Companies need compensation, benefits and job analysis specialists to build and manage compensation and benefits programs. These professionals use data and cost analysis to evaluate benefits plan options, determine salary ranges for different roles and keep the company in compliance with state and federal regulations.
Depending on the organization, this role may break down into subspecialties. Compensation specialists assess and work with the organization’s pay structure. Benefits specialists administer the organization’s benefits programs (e.g., retirement plans, leave policies, wellness programs and insurance policies). Job analysis specialists, also known as position classifiers, evaluate positions by writing or assigning job descriptions and deciding salary scales.
2019 Median annual salary: $64,5602
Job outlook: The job outlook for these professionals looks bright. According to the BLS, their employment is projected to grow eight percent from 2019 to 2029.2
Companies need these professionals to determine the right compensation and benefits offerings for their employees and to ensure their compensation packages abide by regulations. They also depend on compensation and benefits specialists to offer competitive compensation packages to attract and retain qualified employees—a factor that is especially important in sectors where talent is in high demand.
Education needed: A Bachelor’s degree is the most common threshold for this job, according to the BLS. Some work experience in compensation analysis and general HR is also often required.
6. Labor relations specialist
Labor relations specialists advise an organization’s management on contracts, worker grievances and disciplinary procedures, according to the BLS. 2 This may involve orchestrating meetings between management and labor unions, meeting with union representatives directly, investigating grievances and training management in labor relations. Additionally, these specialists may also draft formal language as part of the collective bargaining process and use their deep knowledge of collective bargaining agreements to ensure both labor and management comply with contractual agreements.
2019 Median annual salary: $69,0202
Job outlook: Employment of labor relations specialists is projected to decline seven percent from 2019 to 2029, according to the BLS.2 Part of this decline in employment demand is because union membership has been declining.2
In industries where unions still have a large presence, there should be more opportunities. Candidates with a Bachelor’s degree, related work experience and professional certificates are likely to have have the best job prospects.
Education needed: Labor relations specialists typically need a Bachelor’s degree with some coursework in labor or employment relations, according to the BLS.2 Previous experience in HR may also be a requirement.
7. HR manager
Human resources managers oversee, plan and direct the administrative functions of an organization, according to the BLS. This can involve guiding the recruitment and onboarding of new staff, strategic planning with executives and sometimes overseeing HR teams and programs, such as compensation, employee retention and employee relations.
Overall, human resources managers are responsible for maximizing the value of the organization’s employees. Larger companies might hire specific managers for each department in HR as well, such as payroll managers or recruiting managers.
2019 Median annual salary: $116,7202
Job outlook: Employment of human resources managers is projected to grow six percent from 2019 to 2029, according to the BLS. 2 This is a slightly faster rate of growth than the average for all occupations.2 As new companies form and organizations expand, they will need more human resources managers to oversee their programs.
Education needed: HR managers need at least Bachelor’s degree and several years of related work experience. These jobs are certainly competitive, and candidates with a Master’s degree will likely have the best prospects.
8. Training and development manager
Training and development managers oversee the company’s efforts to create and coordinate programs that enhance employee knowledge and skills, according to the BLS.2 This might include assessing training needs, strategizing on larger company goals, managing training budgets and monitoring endeavors for effectiveness.
This position involves some teaching since managers teach training methods to specialists who then instruct the organization’s employees. In smaller companies, training and development managers may also instruct employees directly.
2019 Median annual salary: $113,3502
Job outlook: Employment for training and development managers is projected to grow seven percent from 2019 to 2029, according to the BLS.2 The BLS states that this growth rate is faster than the national average for all occupations—4 percent.2 In part, this is because technology is enabling new learning possibilities for employees.
The rising importance of social media, digital tools and technological solutions in companies across all industries also creates plenty of demand for training.
Education needed: Training and development managers need a Bachelor’s degree for many positions, but some jobs may require a Master’s degree, according to the BLS.2 Related work experience is also crucial for training and development managers. Some employers may prefer this experience to be in their specific industry.
9. Compensation and benefits manager
Compensation and benefits managers set their organization’s pay and benefits, determine competitive wage rates and choose and manage outside partners, such as insurance brokers and investment managers, according to the BLS. 2
Depending on the size of the company, these professionals might manage teams of HR specialists who work on different compensation and benefits programs. They also keep tabs on federal and state regulations to ensure their company complies. Compensation and benefits managers also meet with senior staff to present analyses and make recommendations on compensation and benefits policies, programs and plans.
2019 Median annual salary: $122,2702
Job outlook: From 2019 to 2029, employment of compensation and benefits managers is projected to grow by three percent, according to the BLS.2 Trying to reduce costs is a continual goal for companies, and hiring a compensation and benefits manager is key to keeping the company ideally positioned in the market.
Education needed: As you might expect, most compensation and benefits managers need a Bachelor’s degree. Managers also need related work experience and often specialize in either compensation or benefits, depending on the types of experience they have.
Getting a start as a compensation, benefits and job analysis specialist is a great way to gain the needed experience for management.
Find the HR career that fits your future
Now that you have a better idea of what human resources salaries are out there, you are better equipped to chart an ambitious HR career path. It’s no surprise that the higher-paying management positions require some time and experience in HR, but if you have a plan for the positions you want to work toward, you can make informed choices from the beginning. This could mean pursuing education that has your primary interests built in. For example, an HR program that emphasizes organizational leadership right from the start.
Human resources from top to bottom is all about people. If you understand how central people are to a company’s success, HR might be the ideal career for you.

About May 2021 National, State, Metropolitan, and Nonmetropolitan Area Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates
These estimates are calculated with data collected from employers in all industry sectors, all metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas, and all states and the District of Columbia.
The top employment and wage figures are provided above. The complete list is available in the downloadable XLS files.
The percentile wage estimate is the value of a wage below which a certain percent of workers fall.
The median wage is the 50th percentile wage estimate—50 percent of workers earn less than the median and 50 percent of workers earn more than the median.
More about percentile wages.
(1) Estimates for detailed occupations do not sum to the totals because the totals include occupations not shown separately. Estimates do not include self-employed workers.
(2) Annual wages have been calculated by multiplying the hourly mean wage by a “year-round, full-time” hours figure of 2,080 hours;
for those occupations where there is not an hourly wage published, the annual wage has been directly calculated from the reported survey data.
(3) The relative standard error (RSE) is a measure of the reliability of a survey statistic. The smaller the relative standard error, the more precise the estimate.
(5) This wage is equal to or greater than $100.00 per hour or $208,000 per year.
(9) The location quotient is the ratio of the area concentration of occupational employment to the national average concentration.
A location quotient greater than one indicates the occupation has a higher share of employment than average, and a location quotient less than one indicates the occupation is less prevalent in the area than average.

The Complete Guide to Human Resources Salary
Disclosure: This content is reader-supported, which means if you click on some of our links that we may earn a commission.
How much money can you make in human resources? What’s the average salary in HR? This in-depth guide will answer these common questions and teach you real ways to increase your HR salary.
Why Your Human Resources Salary Is So Important
Technically speaking, any salary is important. But in HR, understanding what salaries are available is important because human resources is a fairly broad term. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of different job titles in the HR department.
For those of you interested in pursuing a career in HR, this is definitely good news. There’s no shortage of HR jobs, and there’s plenty of money to be made in this department.
The key to a successful HR career is understanding the different paths you can take. Some HR positions have limited growth potential, while others can lead to executive-level roles in a company.
There’s obviously a big difference between a $15 per hour job and a six-figure HR career—most people want to achieve the latter.
The fact that human resources covers so many different areas means that you’ll have tons of opportunities for high-paying jobs throughout your career. You just need to know where to look.
For some of you, you’ll be able to stick with the same organization and increase your salary internally. Others might need to switch companies or industries once or twice to get the highest-paying jobs.
Let’s say you’re still in school or just considering a career change. You might start out as an intern or working an entry-level HR job. But you could quickly advance to a mid-level position if you follow the right path. From there, a six-figure salary and high-level HR role aren’t that far out of reach.
Quick Tips to Increase Your Human Resources Salary Today
Getting a pay raise or salary increase in your current HR role doesn’t have to be a long and grueling task. There are actually some things you can do right now to increase your HR salary.
Tip #1 — Set Realistic Expectations
The first thing you need to do is quickly educate yourself on different HR salaries. This will give you a baseline to gauge your pay and see how much room for growth exists within your existing position.
According to Glassdoor, the average salary for human resources in the United States is $64,349 per year. This will obviously vary based on things like job title, location, company size, and years of experience.
For example, the average base salary for an entry-level HR position with less than one year of experience is $47,581 per year.
The average human resources salary in the US jumps to $79,175 per year with at least ten years of experience and $90,222 with 15+ years of experience. Some of the top-paying HR salaries with 10-15 years of experience get up to $133,000 to $159,000 and higher.
Let’s take a closer look at some of the average HR salaries by role. All of this data is based on the latest research from Indeed.com.
HR Representative — $36,796 per year
HR Assistant — $38,955 per year
Staffing Specialist — $45,356 per year
Staffing Coordinator — $47,367 per year
Benefits Administrator — $47,993 per year
Recruiter — $48,661 per year
HR Specialist — $49,766 per year
HR Administrator — $53,029 per year
HR Associate — $57,330 per year
HR Generalist — $57,599 per year
HR Supervisor — $64,599 per year
HR Manager — $68,533 per year
HRIS Analyst — $74,093 per year
HR Director — $91,039 per year
Chief Human Resources Officer — $94,362 per year
Vice President of Human Resources — $129,313 per year
Some of these positions come with additional compensation like cash bonuses and profit sharing. For example, HR directors get an average annual cash bonus of $10,000 on top of their base salary. VPs of HR get around $25,000 per year in profit sharing as well, on average.
Educating yourself is the best way to maintain realistic expectations as you’re seeking higher-paying jobs in human resources. Otherwise, you’ll have no idea if you’re being underpaid or overpaid.
Tip #2 — Ask For More Money and More Responsibilities
One of the fastest and easiest ways to increase your human resources salary is by simply asking for more money. This trick works during the hiring process as you’re negotiating your initial salary, and it also works once you’re already employed.
According to a recent study, a whopping 77% of people who asked for more money received a raise. 39% of those people received the amount that they asked for.
In short, the odds are on your side if you ask for more money. But there’s definitely a time, place, and a way to go about this that will increase your chances of success.
One of the best ways to increase your salary is by asking for more responsibilities as well. It shows initiative and tells your superiors that you’re willing to work.
This short-term trick will pay off even more long term, as these added responsibilities add to your value as an employee. Even if you don’t stick with the same company forever, you can use those new skills to increase your salary in an HR position elsewhere.
Here are some other quick tips and best practices to consider as you’re asking for a raise:
Explain why you deserve the raise (not why you need the money)
Talk about your future and growth within the company
Demonstrate how you’ve already added value to the HR department
Summarize your best accomplishments
Share your goals
Ask for honest feedback
Don’t ask for a raise too frequently (or too soon after getting hired)
Be prepared for objections
Don’t get emotional
Following this advance can increase your HR salary today, without changing positions or getting a promotion. So give it a try.
Tip #3 — Master HR Software
Things like manual data entry, hard-copy file organization, and other paper-pushing tasks are slowly becoming obsolete in the world of HR. Organizations have gone digital, and the role of HR professionals is changing.
For example, many HR teams are spending less time on the phone and responding to emails from employees about tax forms or pay stubs. The vast majority of this information can be accessed using online employee self-service portals.
There are even HR tools out there using artificial intelligence to recruit new employees.
To stay relevant, you must learn to play nice with technology. HR employees who can learn how to use the best HR software will be assets to businesses for the long haul.
Look at a tool like BambooHR. This is an excellent example that shows how technology is changing the way HR teams operate.
The software has solutions for applicant tracking, hiring, onboarding, time tracking, payroll, PTO, performance management, and so much more. It even works as a digital employee database for safe recordkeeping, reporting, and analytics.
HR software hasn’t quite replaced HR employees, and it probably never will. Real humans still need to interact with the software to get the most out of it.
If you can learn how to use different HR tools, especially beyond basic functions, you’ll have a much easier time landing high-paying HR jobs and getting a raise.
You can start today by signing up for demos, watching training videos, and reading knowledge base tutorials to help you master different HR tools.
Tip #4 — Consider Your Employee Benefits
Lots of HR professionals make the mistake of just looking at their base pay. But taking a step back and looking at your employee benefits can really help you compare different HR salaries.
For example, let’s say you’re looking at two job offers in human resources from two different companies.
One job pays $75,000 per year, and the other pays $85,000 per year. At a quick glance, it seems like the second option is the obvious choice. But the lower base salary position might actually be better when you consider your benefits.
Examples of potential benefits to evaluate include:
Cash bonuses
Profit-sharing
401(k) matching
Health, vision, and dental insurance
Remote work opportunities and flexible working hours
Paid skills development
Subsidized food
Vacation time and PTO
Gym memberships and other employee club discounts
Education reimbursement
Paid training and certification cost coverage
Using the example offers mentioned earlier, these types of employee benefits can easily add up to more than $10,000 per year. So a higher base salary isn’t always better.
Tip #5 — Check What Other Companies Are Paying
Another fast and easy way to increase your HR salary is by looking at other jobs. This requires minimal effort on your part, and you can see dozens of different job offers within an hour or so.
Just browse through different job boards or run a quick Google search for the HR position you’re seeking.
It costs lots of money to train employees. Replacing them is even more expensive. So if you’ve been somewhere for a while, your employer probably won’t want to lose you.
If you see that similar jobs are paying more elsewhere, you can use that as leverage to negotiate your current salary. Alternatively, you can just apply to those other jobs—assuming you’re comfortable leaving your current company.
Long-Term Strategies For Higher Human Resources Salaries
Beyond the quick tips mentioned above, there are a few long-term approaches to making more money in human resources. These take a bit more time and effort to see the payoff.
Strategy #1 — Get an HR Certification
HR certifications show current and prospective employers that you’re serious about a career in human resources. They’re great for those of you who want to pursue a specialized job within the general field of HR.
To obtain a certification, you’ll typically need to take preparation courses and pass an exam. There are application fees and exam fees to consider as well.
Most HR certifications have prerequisites, such as a minimum level of education or minimum years of experience in an HR role.
Some of the best HR certifications and credentials from HRCI (HR Certification Institute) include:
Associate Professional in Human Resources (aPHR)
Associate Professional in Human Resources—International (aPHRi)
Professional in Human Resources (PHR)
Professional in Human Resources—California (PHRca)
Professional in Human Resources—International (PHRi)
Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR)
Senior Professional in Human Resources—International (SPHRi)
Global Professional in Human Resources (GPHR)
HRCI has been providing HR credentialing for 45+ years. Obtaining a certification here can really help advance your HR career and increase your salary.
Strategy #2 — Get Your Master’s Degree
Additional schooling is another way to get paid more in human resources. While this isn’t a requirement, it’s definitely suggested if you want to make yourself stand out compared to other candidates—especially for high-level HR positions.
Consider getting a Master’s Degree in one of the following areas:
Business Administration
Human Resources
Finance
Economics
Marketing
For those of you seeking a mid-level HR position, this probably won’t be necessary. But if you want to become an HR Director, Vice President of Human Resources, or a Chief Human Resources Officer, this degree will really help separate you from the crowd.
Getting your Master’s online is a great option. This way, you don’t have to quit your current HR job to make this happen.
Strategy #3 — Consider Switching Your Industry or Location
As previously mentioned, there are lots of factors to consider when it comes to human resources salaries. If you’re comfortable changing industries and locations, it can really open the doors to new and higher-paying opportunities in HR.
Online tools like Glassdoor make it easy to browse for HR jobs by industry and location.
For example, the average HR salary in the banking and financial services industry is $105,971 in San Diego, California. The average salary for this same industry in St. Louis, Missouri drops to $80,137.
Let’s look at another example using the exact same cities but different industries.
In San Diego, the average HR salary for HR jobs in education is $61,379. The salary is nearly identical for the education industry in St. Louis, at $62,134. When you compare HR jobs in these two cities within the manufacturing industry, the average salary is within $300, at just under $64,000 per year for both.
As you can see, the salary can change drastically or remain the same based on industry or location. But if you do some digging, you can sometimes find a significant pay increase for the same job.
Obviously, moving across the country or changing industries isn’t for everyone. So lots of thought must go into making a decision like this.
Next Steps
Take some time to evaluate your earning potential. This will be based on things like your experience, education, credentials, industry, location, and more.
Next, consider the demand for your career path. If your existing role involves fielding phone calls from employees about their paychecks, chances are the demand will decrease as companies adopt HR software.
Consider looking for ways to improve the existing HR operations of your current organization. Pitching a suggestion like this can really help your cause when it comes time for a raise.
For example, you might suggest applicant tracking software to help your company find top-level talent and streamline the onboarding process. Or maybe pitch something like training software to help lower the costs of employee training, reduce workplace incidents, and help with employee retention.

More Factors that Influence Salary
There are other factors that can influence the salary of an HR manager. Here are some to consider when you think about how much you’d like to earn in this role.
Education
While you can land a job with an associate degree in human resource management, an HR manager typically has a bachelor’s degree in human resources, business administration, or a related field. The knowledge, skills, and critical thinking experience you gain from your education are essential for a managerial role, which involves planning, managing, and decision making.
Rue Dooley, SHRM-SCP, the HR knowledge advisor for the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), says a growing number of HR professionals have master’s degrees, so you may want to consider earning a graduate degree after you’re grounded in your career and know which direction you want to take it. “The more formal education a student can get, the better,” says Dooley.
Experience
An HR manager typically needs two to three years of experience before they’re qualified to manage others. Entry-level positions such as HR specialist are likely to offer lower salaries because you don’t have practical experience yet. But with some experience, you can increase your opportunities and earning potential.
Entry-level positions such as HR specialist are likely to offer lower salaries because you don’t have on-the-job experience yet. But you can increase your opportunities and earning potential with experience from your first roles.
Certification
Professional certifications can also increase your earning power. A certification demonstrates to others that you’ve mastered specific knowledge and skills beyond what you learned in your degree program.
The SHRM Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP), granted by the Society for Human Resource Management, is one such credential for HR Managers.
Workplace
Human resources managers work in all types of industries, large and small organizations, and public and private enterprises.
According to the BLS, these are the median annual salaries for some of the top workplaces for HR managers.
Industry
Salary
Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services
$138,030
Management of Companies and Enterprises
$133,860
Manufacturing
$119,880
Government
$105,830
Healthcare and Social Assistance
$101,990
Specialty
While many HR managers are generalists who manage a department, you may have the opportunity to manage one or more specialties, such as recruiting and hiring, in a larger organization if you have the right experience.
Specializing in a particular industry can also make you more valuable to prospective employers. For example, working as an HR manager in healthcare can allow you to develop expertise specific to that field and the challenges of working with employees in that industry.
Job Outlook
Jobs for HR managers are expected to grow by 9% through 2030, according to the BLS. That’s about as fast as the projected growth for all occupations.
The BLS reports that professional, scientific, and technical services employ the most HR managers.
If you’re wondering about the opportunities in your geographic area, consider the size of your state population. As you might expect, states with higher populations have the most jobs for HR managers, while states with lower populations employ fewer managers.

Qualified personnel as an enterprise resource
Skill management is a function of an organization designed to increase the productivity of employees in order to achieve the employer’s strategic goals. Human resource management is primarily concerned with the management of people in organizations, focusing on policies and systems of relationships. Departments and divisions in organizations responsible for human resources typically conduct a range of activities, including employee payroll, recruitment, training and development, performance appraisals and awards.
Human resource management also includes industrial relations, that is, the balancing act between organizational practices and demands arising from collective bargaining and from government laws.
Human resource management is a product of the human relations movement in the early 20th century. This phenomenon is due to the fact that researchers have begun to document ways to assess the value of a business through strategic workforce management. The function of the initial dominance of work transactions, such as payroll and administration benefits, but due to globalization, company consolidation, technological advances and further research, human resource management in 2015 focuses on strategic initiatives such as mergers and acquisitions, talent management, planning succession, industrial and labor relations, and diversity.
In new companies, trained professionals can perform human resource management functions. In large companies, there is a functional group dedicated to the discipline of working with employees. This group specializes in various tasks related to human resource management. Human resource management specialists and functional management take part in setting strategic business goals. To prepare practitioners for the profession: companies create institutions of higher education, professional associations, and job training programs. Academia and practice organizations are also looking to move further into the field of human resource management, as evidenced by several specific scientific publications. In the field of human resource management, there is also a lot of research that is popular in the field of industrial / organizational psychology management, a large number of scientific articles are published, appearing in a number of popular scientific journals.
In the current global work environment, most companies are focused on reducing employee turnover and retaining the talent and knowledge that their workforce possesses. The process of hiring new workers not only entails high costs, but also increases the risk of new workers lacking sufficient competencies and failing to fully replace their predecessors. The Human Resources Department strives to offer benefits that will benefit the employee, thereby reducing the risk of loss of corporate knowledge.
Story.
Previous theoretical developments.
Human resource management became a specific area in the early 20th century, under the influence of Frederick Taylor (1856–1915). Taylor explored what he called “scientific management”, his theory later became known as “Taylorism”, seeking to improve the economic efficiency of manufacturing jobs.
The birth and evolution of the discipline.
By that time, it was enough to make a business case for theoretical developments for strategic personnel management, changes in the business landscape (a la Andrew Carnegie, John Rockefeller) and public policy (a la Sidney and Beatrice Webb, Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal) transformed the employer-employee relationship, and the discipline was framed as “industrial and labor relations.” In 1913, one of the oldest and most famous professional staffing associations was the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development. It was founded in England by the “Social Workers” Association, then changed its name a decade later to the “Industrial Workers’ Welfare Institute”, and for the next ten years to the “Institute of Labor Administration” before settling on its current name. Also, in the United States, the world’s first institution of higher education, human resource management: “Research School of Industrial and Labor Relations”, was formed at Cornell University in 1945 year. In 1948, the university became the largest human resource management professional association and was founded as the American Society for Personnel Administration.
In the Soviet Union, meanwhile, the selection of personnel is carried out through the “personnel department” equivalent in the Bolshevik Party – the Orgburo, these structures have demonstrated the effectiveness and influence of the policy and practice of using human resources, and Stalin himself recognized the importance of the human resource.
In the second half of the 20th century, union membership declined significantly, while personnel management continued to expand its influence within the organization. The phrase “industrial and labor relations” has come into use to refer to special issues regarding collective representation, and many companies have begun to implement human resource management practices in earnest. Many modern human resource management practices can be traced to the needs of companies in 1950s existing to develop and retain enterprise talents.
At the end of the 20th century, advances in transportation and communications greatly facilitate labor mobility and collaboration. Corporations began to view employees as assets rather than as cogs in a machine. “Human Resource Management” hence became the dominant term for the American Society for Personnel Administration, the society even changing its name to “The Society for Human Resource Management” at 1998 year. “Human Capital Management” is sometimes used as a synonym for “Human Resource Management”, although human capital generally refers to a narrower human resource perspective; i. e., the knowledge and ability of an individual to contribute to the organization. Similarly, other terms are sometimes used to describe the field: “organizational management”, “workforce management”, “talent management”, “personnel management”, or simply “people management”.
Functions for business.
Dave Ulrich has listed the functions of human resource management as:. alignment of human resources and business strategy, organization reengineering processes, listening and answering questions from employees, managing transformation and change.
At the macro level, human resource management is responsible for control, organizational leadership and culture. Human resource management also enforces geographically diverse employment and labor laws and often oversees health and safety. In circumstances where employees are willing and legally empowered to pursue a collective bargaining agreement, typically, human resource management will also serve as the company’s primary liaison with employee representatives (usually a labor union). Consequently, human resources management, usually through representatives, engages in clashes with government agencies (for example, in the United States, the US Department of Labor and the National Labor Relations Council) in order to further determine their priorities.
Human resource management needs to be considered more specifically, they have four main functions: personnel, training and development, motivation and maintenance. Human Resources is the recruitment and selection of potential employees through interviews, applications, networks, etc., training and development is the next step in the continuous process of learning and developing competent and adapted employees. Motivation is the key to keeping employees highly productive. This feature may include employee benefits, performance evaluations, and rewards. The last maintenance function involves maintaining employee commitment and loyalty to the organization.
The discipline may also be involved in mobility management. Human resource management is generally seen as a support for business functions, helping to minimize costs and mitigate risks.
Career in personnel management.
There are half a million HR practices in the United States and millions more around the world. The chief human resource officer or director of human resources is the highest-ranking director of the executive branch in most companies and generally reports directly to the chief executive officer and works directly with the board of directors.
Within a company, human resource positions typically fall into one of two categories: generalist and specialist. HR generalists support employees directly with their questions, complaints, and work on a number of projects within the organization. They can handle all aspects of the work of human resources, and thus, such personnel require a wide range of knowledge. The responsibilities of a HR generalist are universal and can vary widely, depending on the needs of the employer. Specialists, on the contrary, work in a specific function of human resource management. Some practitioners build their entire career right away as either a generalist or specialist, while others will gain work experience and choose their path later. The Human Resources position ranks as one of the top positions in the organization, number 4 on CNN Money in 2006 and number 20 in the same ranking in 2009year, because of pay, personal satisfaction, job security, future growth, and social benefits.
Human resource consulting is a great career where people can work as consultants for companies and perform outsourcing tasks for companies. In 2007, there were 950 human resource management consulting agencies, a market worth US$18.4 billion. The top five in terms of profitability included Mercer, Ernst & Young, Deloitte, Watson Wyatt (now part of Towers Watson), AON (now merged with Hewitt), and PwC consulting consulting. In 2010, Human Resources Consulting was ranked #43 of the best Jobs in America by CNN Money.
Some people have received doctorates in human resources and related fields such as work and management psychology, becoming professors who teach the principles of personnel management in colleges and universities. They are most commonly found in colleges of business in the human resources or management departments.

term paper
To begin with, I would like to consider the definition of “resource”. Resource (from French ressource – auxiliary means) – money, values, stocks, opportunities, sources of funds, income. Resources are everything that can be used by a company to achieve its goals, to meet its own needs and the needs of the subjects of the external environment.
There are many different types of resources: natural, economic, which are divided into organizational, labor, financial and material, as well as information resources and many others.
The difference between human resources and other types of enterprise resources is as follows:
1) a person brings vital meaning to the production process and cannot serve only as a means to achieve the goals of the organization. It has its price and makes certain demands on its environment;
2) a person is only partially realized in production. His existence is not limited to production activities, he finds self-expression in a variety of social contacts;
3) a person has the ability, initiative, will, therefore, is not only a passive object of control, but also a conductor of an independent line of behavior;
4) a person is not only a member of the formal structure of an organization, he can simultaneously be a member of small groups within which people have a significant influence on each other’s behavior;
5) a person cannot be wholly owned by an enterprise. At the disposal of the organization is provided for a fee exclusively its labor force. The employee independently builds his personal policy and decides – to work for him on this
So, the difference between human resources and other types of enterprise resources is that each employee can refuse the conditions offered to him and demand a change in unacceptable, from his point of view, work , retraining in other professions and specialties, may finally quit the enterprise of his own free will. Consequently, human resource management is much more difficult than managing other enterprise resources due to the unpredictability of human behavior and the diversity of his skills.
However, people are the only element that has the ability to create added value. All other types of resources in the enterprise, by their nature, cannot do this until a person, be it a worker of the lowest qualification, a skilled professional or a top manager, does not use his skills and abilities and does not create a product that has value.
Human resources are not only the leading side of the economic and social development of the country as a whole. But also the main wealth of any organization.
So, human resources (humanresources) – this is the able-bodied population, which is the material basis of human potential, which characterizes the degree of development of the physical and spiritual abilities of a person. For men, the working age is 44 years (from 16 to 59 years inclusive), and for women – 39 years (from 16 to 54 years inclusive). Human resource management: a textbook for bachelors / ed. I.A. Maksimtseva. – M.: Yurayt Publishing House, 2012. – 525 p. – Series: Bachelor. Advanced course.
In foreign practice, this concept is interpreted more broadly: “People and their associations constitute the human resources necessary for the rational use of existing natural resources, as well as for the development of new ways to improve or, on the contrary, destroy life support systems.”
The change in the number of human resources directly depends on the birth rate, death rate, emigration and immigration of the population. In recent years, there have been negative trends in the formation of labor resources. The natural population growth is declining due to a decrease in the birth rate and an increase in mortality, unfavorable dynamics in the age and sex structure of the population, irrational migration flows of the population and their placement on the territory of the Russian Federation, and a low standard of living of the population are also visible.
However, there is a trend towards continuous improvement in the quality of human resources. The educational potential has grown, the share of high levels of education in the educational structure. Efficiency in the use of labor, like efficiency in any activity, is ultimately measured by the time it takes to produce a unit of product or unit of service and work in the appropriate quality. From this point, the efficiency of labor application is the minimization of labor costs with a high quality of the end result. Adamchuk V.V. Economics and sociology of labor: Textbook for universities / V. V. Adamchuk, O.V. Romashov, M.E. Sorokin. – M.: UNITI, 2001. – 407 p.
It is known that the main factors of production at the enterprise are: means of labor, objects of labor and personnel.
The main role belongs to the personnel potential at the enterprise. It is the personnel that play the first violin in the production process, it depends on them how efficiently the means of production are used at the enterprise and how successfully the enterprise as a whole operates.
People taking part in the production process are one of the most important types of resources both in an individual enterprise and on a national scale as a whole. They are a source of knowledge, skills and abilities of employees that the enterprise possesses. The results of the enterprise and its competitiveness largely depend on the quality and efficiency of the use of these resources. Endovitsky D.A., Belenova N.N. Comprehensive analysis of the activities of managerial personnel: scientific publication. – M.: KnoRus, 2010. – 280 p.
In the domestic literature, various categories are given that characterize the participation of a person in the process of production and labor. Consider the concepts: “personnel”, “personnel”, “labor force”, “labor resources”, “labor potential”, “human resources” and “human capital”. To do this, let’s turn to table 1.
Table 1 – The main categories characterizing the participation of a person in the production and labor process
Definition
Content of definition
Personnel
The totality of employees of various professional and qualification groups employed at the enterprise in accordance with the staffing table, as well as working owners of the organization who receive wages at the enterprise.
Staff
All personnel of people working at the enterprise, namely: employees on the payroll; persons employed part-time from other enterprises; persons performing work under civil law contracts.
Labor Force
The totality of a person’s physical and mental abilities, which he uses in the process of labor activity for the production of material goods and services.
Human resources
A part of the country’s population that has a combination of physical, mental and spiritual abilities that are used in work and outside the labor process to create material goods and services are not realized.
Labor potential
The maximum value of the possible participation of workers in production, taking into account their psycho-physiological characteristics, the level of professional knowledge and accumulated experience.
Human resources
The accumulated stock of various knowledge, skills, and abilities of a human worker, necessary for solving long-term and fundamentally new tasks.
Human Capital
The realized accumulated abilities of the personnel, with certain possibilities, ensuring the effective functioning of the organization and allowing, ceteris paribus, to ensure its competitiveness.
As we can see, the terms in the table are arranged in order of increasing coverage of the definitions, as well as their importance. We will focus on the analysis of the category “human resources”.
Human resources set in motion the material elements of production, create a product, value and surplus product in the form of profit.
In modern conditions, the analysis of the state of human resources of the organization is an integral part of the analysis and management system in the organization. Unfortunately, the importance of measures to improve human resource management in our country is not taken seriously enough by personnel services. Until now, many state-owned enterprises and commercial organizations do not even have basic programs for managing these resources, or these systems are applied inefficiently. This explains the high turnover and constant shortage of qualified personnel.
Thus, sufficient provision of enterprises with the necessary human resources, their rational use, and a high level of labor productivity are of great importance for increasing production volumes and improving the efficiency of the production process. This determines the relevance of assessing the state and efficiency of the use of human resources in the enterprise.

The three USA as factors influencing human resources
Human Resources ( including Human Resources , Human Resources Management, English Human Resources Management , abbreviation HRM , or Human Resources Management , which has to do with business area ) production work and employees, apart from sets. Human resources is an existing function in all organizations, the main tasks of which are the provision and targeted placement of personnel. In personnel practice, many companies include not only management processes, but also the interaction and emotions of the staff.
Modern HR management aims for sustainable success, taking into account aspects of social and environmental compatibility. For this, knowledge, methods and tools of quality management (TQM, EFQM) and corporate governance are applied. Today, human resource management is expected to contribute to maintaining and adding value in the long term. To do this, the needs of all stakeholders must be taken into account. In order to achieve corporate goals, targeted measures and resource planning in the field of personnel, as well as an appropriate corporate culture, are necessary.
The specific design of individual areas in a particular company is also called personnel policy. Corporate policy defines the behavior and course of action to achieve operational goals. In some cases, such provisions are set out in the corporate mission statement or specified in the work instructions.
While the English term personnel management is a rather limited and instrumental view of human resources , i.e. considers the employee as a tool for the implementation of corporate goals, the term human resource management implies a broader perspective, which also includes aspects of personnel development, i.e. as resources or important company assets.

Eine hohe Mitarbeiterzufriedenheit bewirkt eine höhere Arbeitsproduktivität, kreativere Forschung und Entwicklung, geringere Personal- und Betriebskosten, eine längere Betriebszugehörigkeit, langfristige Bindung hochqualifizierter Mitarbeiter (“Talente”) und vermehrtes Interesse hochwertiger Bewerber, weniger Krankenstand und Fehlzeiten, höhere Leistungen, schnellere Reaktion auf Veränderungen on the market.

Separate problems of personnel control are the reduction of personnel costs, fluctuations and absenteeism, as well as an increase in labor productivity or labor productivity. The control of personnel management is an important part of the personnel management process and follows from the stages of planning, hiring and deploying personnel, but also has a by-product effect.
Personnel control
For personnel controlling both performance-related coordination functions that connect the process of planning, monitoring and control of information submission. As an effective personnel controlling, it is parallel or superimposed on the process of personnel management. As a controlling area, it supports the HR manager in carrying out their tasks. Management Controlling is aimed at managers.
Personnel organization
Personnel organization as the structuring of static, exponential and dynamic relationships in human resource management. It consists of:
An organizational chart that regulates the tasks of the structure, areas of responsibility and responsibility, and includes organizational charts in the personnel department and job descriptions as supporting aspects.
Organization of processes with HR processes, e.g. B. Human resources planning, recruitment, placement and personnel control processes (HR processes)
A project organization with particular challenges in human resource management (human resource management in projects).
Personnel management uses organizational theoretical approaches from organizational sociology and psychology.
Management Commission
Staff remuneration as a function of handling all the company’s monetary services to employees who are directly related to their services. The forms of remuneration used are time wages, piecework wages, wage supplements and participation wages. The level of wages has repeatedly become the subject of disputes between employers and employees. Topics related to remuneration include, for example, B. wages, payroll costs, payroll, wages, sickness benefit, social security,
social security contributions and payroll taxes.
Personnel care
Personnel management as an integrated service function with all facilities, activities and services that also send personnel to the agreed consideration. Examples are social law, social affairs and social measures. Additional employee costs for employers associated with employee social security contributions, Christmas allowances or vacations can sometimes be significant.
Personnel policy
Personnel policy covers both the main decisions concerning the alignment of human resource management and personnel work, and on the other hand, the political process of legal and non-legitimate actors to fulfill their interests.
Labor law
In a system standardized in terms of labor law, for example in Germany, the human resources department has to deal, in particular, with labor law as the totality of all legal norms relating to dependent, dependent work. It is necessary to distinguish:
Individual Labor Law governing individual relations between workers and employers, e.g. B. Employment Contract Law (in particular BGB, HGB), Occupational Safety and Health Law (protection of mothers, protection of minors, regulation of working hours , Disabled Persons Act).
Collective Labor Law which governs agreements between employer and works council, and between trade unions and employers’ associations as parties to collective bargaining. b. Collective bargaining (collective wage agreement, framework agreement, collective agreement), right to participate (Betriebsverfassungsgesetz).
Research area
Economist Christian Scholz (2014) identified three influential generations of research in human resource management in German-speaking countries with different historical backgrounds and approaches/orientations. In the meantime, a fourth generation emerged, which cannot yet be fully schematically represented, which initially focused on theoretical discussions in economics. From late 19In the 1990s, she returned to business administration.
Erich Kosiol / Eberhard Witte (empirical), Franz Hussens (pragmatic), Herbert Hacks (politically oriented), Guido Fischer / Wilhelm Hasenach (normative-ethical), August Marx (economic). Further origins were theoretical and behavioral.
Hans Jürgen Dramm, Jan S. Krulis-Randa, Wolfgang H. Stahl, Gerhard Reber, Eduard Gogler. During this time, the content was developed, theoretical approaches were presented and empirical research was carried out.
Karl-Friedrich Ackermann / Christian Scholz / Jurgen Bertel (management), Erich Potthoff / Rolf Wunderer (management and controlling), Dudo von Eckardstein / Wolfgang Weber (development), Joachim Henze / Michel Domsch (information), Rainer Marr / Walter A.

Effective personnel management in a crisis situation: tasks and solutions
Human capital is one from key management resources. All activities of an enterprise directly depend on the qualifications of its employees, how this qualification corresponds to the tasks of the company, whether these tasks are supported by an appropriate motivation system, how certain managerial decisions affect the effectiveness of the work of personnel.
In the context of the economic downturn, most companies focused their efforts on improving financial performance, such as reducing costs, increasing turnover, and increasing profitability. The tasks related to the efficient use of human resources are largely concentrated exclusively in the field of headcount optimization. At the same time, it is important not to forget that improving the efficiency of personnel management in the harsh conditions of a crisis requires attention to all aspects of management. The stability of the company and its ability to compete in the future depend on how the enterprise manages to maintain full-fledged work with the staff and at the same time get the maximum return from the human resource.
It would seem that the use of information systems in the current situation is an excess luxury. But the ability to obtain the information necessary for management quickly, in full and with minimal effort directly depends on whether this information is collected manually or obtained using specialized information solutions.
What tasks in the field of HR management are relevant in the current conditions, and what capabilities of the information system allow solving these tasks quickly and efficiently?
Evaluation of the performance of employees
The use of various financial incentive schemes in the company should primarily be aimed at improving the performance of employees, depending on the tasks they perform and the results that are required of them. It’s good if your company is small and you can personally track the results of each employee. What if the company has an extensive network of branches or subsidiaries. And if it is a large holding company with diverse activities and various pay schemes. How to assess that the increase in bonuses or the training provided has increased the employee’s return? And what exactly have increased? To what extent do these indicators correspond to the company’s goals? Who among employees is more exposed to a decrease in sales efficiency due to a seasonal downturn, and whose results are hardly affected by this downturn?
Almost every company uses various bonus schemes for fulfilling sales targets (revenue, income per unit of products sold – if an employee manages discounts, etc.). Such incentive schemes encourage salespeople to improve sales performance. However, their application involves maintaining a rather laborious accounting of wages. In addition, constant monitoring of the effectiveness of the work of salespeople requires a significant diversion of temporary resources of line managers. In this situation, the use of the capabilities of information systems allows the manager to quickly receive reports on indicators that are significant to him and compare the costs of paying the bonus part with the income received from each employee or unit.
Application and calculation of various motivational schemes
Changes in the market situation require the company to adjust not only goals and plans, but also change the entire system that supports the implementation of these plans. Some companies are forced to change incentive schemes every year in order to secure a competitive advantage in a rapidly changing market. How will changing the motivational scheme affect the results of employees? How will personnel costs, primarily payroll, change in this case? If all indicators for the company are in a single information base and it is possible to compare them not only by employees, but also by periods, the development of a new motivational scheme and modeling of various scenarios becomes much easier. Accordingly, in order to obtain reliable information when calculating a new motivation system, a manager needs to use accounting data, a trading system, as well as personnel service data that accumulate information on the parameters for accruing all payments for each employee.
For medium-sized enterprises, the typical way to conduct these experiments was to use Excel spreadsheets. The volume of data and the size of the resulting tables discourages the manager from any desire to spend time on such work. What should a company do if, under the current conditions, a change in the wage system is a forced necessity? And is it possible to reduce costs or increase the stability of the company while maintaining the ability of employees to receive adequate income?
Again, the use of information systems can greatly facilitate the solution of this problem.
Evaluation of employees and the formation of a “gold reserve”
The human resources potential of the company has always been its competitive advantage. Even in the conditions of optimizing the number of staff, the task of the HR service is to identify and retain those employees who form the basis of human capital. Companies that regularly conduct personnel assessments or certifications always have an employee base in their assets and have the opportunity to choose those who have the most important competencies for the company according to current parameters. Since, due to changes in external conditions, the significance of certain competencies for the company may change, it is important for the manager to be able to create and change the profile of competencies for each position.
How can an information system be useful to a personnel department? Firstly, it is more convenient to maintain a database of all employees of the company with the results of the assessment, to compare these results for the period for one employee, or to compare data for several employees, it is more convenient if this process is automated. Secondly, by creating a competency model in the information system, you can link each competency to the way it is assessed, including according to formal criteria, such as “sales volume”, “number of completed orders” – for sales department employees, “number of completed documents” – for employees of accounting services. And this data can also be obtained from the information system automatically.
Analysis of the dynamics of the movement of personnel
Reports on the staffing of the company’s personnel have always been the main tool for analyzing the company by HR departments. What information can be useful to managers in the changed economic situation? Let’s say a company, working in the usual way, fired several people for inconsistency with job responsibilities. How will this affect other employees in a crisis? Will this not cause an outflow of the most qualified personnel on its own initiative? By regularly analyzing reports on the structure of the personnel and its changes, the head of the HR service will be the first to identify adverse trends and warn the head of the necessary measures.
Using the capabilities of the information system for the tasks of the HR service on the example of “1C: Payroll and HR 8”
How can the tasks listed above be solved in a particular information system “1C: Payroll and HR 8”?
Automated payroll makes it possible to generate analytical reports on the monthly output of each employee separately, as well as the entire unit as a whole.
From the Payroll document, you can not only calculate accruals, but also make an initial assessment of labor costs for the current month, as well as compare data for each employee. So, for example, according to these data, it can be determined that, according to the results of the calculation for January, the salary of seller A is significantly lower than the salary of seller B, and these results were affected by the difference in such an indicator as “revenue”.
For an in-depth analysis of the performance of employees, use the report “Analysis of indicators”. It is a tool for generating various reports on indicators that take into account the specific requirements of the user for analytical information. In addition, the report contains default settings for report options that are frequently used by users. In order to monitor deviations in performance indicators, a line manager can use a self-created report that presents data in a form convenient for him, or change an existing one and then save it.
With this report, it is possible to obtain exact amounts of sales revenue. However, it is more convenient to trace the dynamics of the performance of indicators, to determine the trend of their changes by generating a report not in the form of tables, but in the form of a graph (see figure
According to the graph, we can conclude that in general, for the division, the first five months of the year, the amount of sales revenue on average coincided with the planned figure. Since May, there has been a decline in sales activity associated with the start of summer holidays. However, in September the figures are lower than at the beginning of the year. Based on this data, you can make the necessary decisions, for example, compare sales data with performance appraisal results and understand what caused the decline for a particular employee.
The “Attestation” tool allows, based on the glossary of competencies, to develop a personnel assessment system, select an assessment scale and specify assessment criteria for each competency. The program also supports the ability to work on the assessment system previously created in the organization. For this, additional introduction of new competencies, scales and evaluation criteria is provided.
In the current economic situation, a company cannot make the most of its hidden reserves if there is no timely and objective information on them. In the field of human resource management, such data are personnel performance indicators; analytical reports on the dynamics of changes in payroll and calculated taxes; data on indirect costs, such as recruitment and training of staff; monitoring data of actual deviations in the output of each employee from the planned ones.

Customer Reviews
Customer reviews are pieces of feedback given to a business based on a customer’s experience with the organization. These reviews can be public or private and are collected by either the company or third-party review sites. By obtaining and analyzing customer reviews, businesses can measure customer satisfaction and improve their customer relations.
Benefits of Customer Reviews
There are two major reasons why customer reviews are important.
1. Customer reviews are a learning opportunity for your business.
Negative or neutral reviews provide your company with an opportunity to learn and develop. You can see exactly where your business is failing to meet customer needs and remove common roadblocks in the customer journey.
For particularly poor reviews, reps can follow up with these customers and prevent potential churn. They can highlight specific pain points and craft personalized responses geared to specific problems. This makes your customer service team appear more invested in your customers’ goals, which results in fewer negative reviews and increased customer retention.
2. Customer reviews are marketing and sales tools for your business.
The other major reason for obtaining reviews is the opportunity to share them with potential customers. Positive reviews can be used as customer testimonials during lead acquisition and can help you add more contacts to your CRM. In fact, 91% of consumers read at least one review before purchasing a product. So, don’t just pat yourself on the back the next time you get a five-star review; Make sure everyone knows how good a job your company is doing.

With that in mind, it’s not safe to assume we all know where to track down those positive customer reviews. I mean, we might all be able to rattle off one or two sites (“Yelp! And I think you can get them to show up in Google Maps, too?”), but we don’t exactly have a laundry list of options at our disposal
Check out our list of the best product review websites for B2B and B2C companies. Keep in mind that every industry has niche sites, too. For instance, those in the restaurant industry may want to be on UrbanSpoon or OpenTable. This blog post won’t get into sites that are specific to one industry, but it will provide review sites that apply to businesses in almost any industry.

1.
Amazon Customer Reviews
Amazon was one of the first online stores to allow consumers to post reviews of products in 1995, and it remains one of the most important resources for consumers looking to make informed purchase decisions. Even if people can and do buy a product elsewhere, if it’s sold on Amazon.com — unless it’s gasoline or drug paraphernalia, that is — then many people will look up its Amazon review before they decide to buy.
What’s going to separate your product from one that looks just like it? Those shiny gold stars and good customer reviews. Products are rated on a five-star rating scale, which is broken down by the percentage of reviews per star, followed by most helpful customer reviews and most recent customer reviews.
Benefits of Amazon Customer Reviews:
Amazon has over 300 million users who can see your review.
Amazon’s rating system is straightforward and easy to understand.
Amazon offers a product ranking feature that rates your product’s popularity.
Amazon users are loyal — 22% won’t look at competitors if they discovered the product on Amazon.
2. Angie’s List
Geared toward U.S.-based service businesses, Angie’s List is a “higher-end” review site, because users actually have to pay for membership. But you get what you pay for. The reviews, given on an A–F scale, are typically very well-thought-out — not a lot of that ranting and raving that’s more common on free review sites. The reviews can’t be anonymous, which helps cut down on fake or misrepresentative reviews, and companies are allowed to respond to the reviews posted about them, too.
It’s free to set up a page for your company. Once you have yours, encourage your customers who are on Angie’s List to leave reviews there — members are the only ones allowed to do it!
Benefits of Angie’s List:
Reviews on Angie’s List are typically of high-quality since users need to pay to use the site and can’t post anonymously.
Even though this is a paid subscription service, it’s free to list your company on Angie’s List.
If a customer has a bad experience with a recommended provider, Angie’s List will work with both the customer and the company to resolve the issue.
3. Choice
Have customers working in academia? Better yet, are they located in Australia? Choice is a member-funded review website based in Australia. It independently evaluates academic resources — like libraries — and provides detailed reviews to its members.
The bulk of its work involves reading academic writing, creating comparisons for each resource, and writing buying guides for customers. In addition, it allow members to rate and discuss specific resources and libraries with other Choice members. If you have customers in Australia, we recommend encouraging those who are on CHOICE to leave reviews there.
Benefits of Choice:
Choice posts over 200,000 reviews each year and serves about 2,400 institutions worldwide.
Since Choice evaluates academic resources independently, its reviews are unbiased.
Choice offers a “Review of the Day” feature that reviews one academic resource per day. You can read it even if you are not a Choice member.
Choice has a “Choice Picks” page where you can see the best products that it recommends.
4. Trustpilot
Trustpilot is a fast-growing, community-driven consumer review platform based in Denmark, although it has expanded out of Europe into 65 countries, including the U.S. The platform for businesses helps companies from all over the world proactively collect customer reviews. It’s the customers who write both product and seller reviews, keeping it third-party verified.
While there is a basic version for free (this lets you create a profile page and collect customer reviews), the paid versions let you create customizable review invitations, share ratings and reviews on social media, and link review data to your internal business systems.
Benefits of Trustpilot:
Over 500,000 websites are rated on Trustpilot.
Trustpilot uses its own review system to rate its website. Based on about 136,000 reviews, Trustpilot is rated four stars out of five.
Trustpilot has advanced SEO features that help your website rank higher on SERPs when customers leave reviews for your company.
Trustpilot can be integrated with Shopify, Magento, and MailChimp.
5. TestFreaks
Similar to TrustPilot, the Swedish-based TestFreaks helps companies proactively collect customer reviews and write seller reviews to complement them.
Another cool addition? Its question and answer feature, which lets prospective customers post questions and receive answers directly from your customer service team.
Benefits of TestFreaks:
TestFreaks has 100 million crawled reviews from over 15,000 sources.
TestFreaks provides a content moderation team that analyzes content in over 20 languages.
TestFreaks has an import feature where you can upload external customer reviews into its website.
6. Which?
Which? is an independent consumer review organization that tests and reviews products and then writes about them. Unlike Angie’s List, it’s the folks at Which? who write the reviews — not the customers. They don’t accept submissions for product testing or survey inclusion, but they do encourage people to let them know about their products and services by emailing [email protected].
While this leaves less room for you to influence whether your products end up on their site, it’s still worth knowing about and checking in on this popular site, especially if you have customers in the U.K. The website has product reviews for everything from dishwashers and tablets to cars and credit cards. It tests and reviews all these products, and then writes about both its methodologies and results. It also surveys customers for things like the best and worst firms for customer service.
A lot of its content is free, but customers can become members for £10. 75 per month to get access to a “Best Buys” and “Don’t Buy” list, the latest reviews of products from its test labs, and access to its consumer legal advice service.
Benefits of Which?:
Which? offers more than 8,000 free reviews.
Which? tests and reviews more than 3,600 new products every year.
To prove that it’s impartial, Which? provides a video that shows users how it tests and reviews each product.
Which? is 100% independent. It doesn’t accept freebies from product manufactures or retailers so its reviews remain unbiased.
Which? offers a “Safety Alert” feature that notifies users when a product is deemed unsafe. There’s also a “Brand Alert” feature that lets you know if a brand has a history of creating unsafe products.
7. Consumer Reports
A nonprofit organization, Consumer Reports is an independent product-testing organization that runs unbiased tests to rate and recommend products. It has reviewed over 7.7 million products, accept no advertising, and pay for all products that it tests. (Fun fact: The company buys and tests 80 cars each year!) This is about as legitimate as it gets. As such, there’s not much you can do here “except” if you sell a product, make sure it’s really, really good.
Image Source
If nothing else, you could take this website as a lesson in excellent content creation. For each product it reviews, it provides the review criteria, product overviews, a buying guide, and social sharing buttons. It’s all quite comprehensive and, well, helpful. Pretty much the key to great content, am I right?
Benefits of Consumer Reports:
Consumer Reports has over 63 testing facilities — including its 327-acre auto test center.
Consumer Reports has spent over $30 million on testing and rating products.
The company plans to test more than 8,500 new products in 2021.

Consumer Reports provides an overall score for each product, so you know exactly how it compares to other products in its category.
8. Consumer Affairs
Consumer Affairs is a for-profit organization that reviews companies using an “overall satisfaction rating.” This average is scored on a one to five-star scale that’s updated every time a new review is submitted. Each company’s page provides a list of all its reviews, which includes the consumer’s star rating as well as a short explanation for its score.
Consumer Affairs also allows users to submit review recordings, which are two-minute videos where people talk about their experience with a brand. This makes the review much more compelling because you can actually see the person talk and express their genuine feelings about the company.
Benefits of Consumer Affairs:
Consumer Affairs offers a “trending” section where you can view its lastest and most popular reviews.
Consumer Affairs provides a demo for brands looking to buy a subscription to its service.
The “Review Feed” feature allows you to research all of your customer reviews in one, scrolling feed.
Consumer Affairs has a “Video Review” option where customers can record themselves giving a review.
9. TripAdvisor
If you’re in the travel, hotel, airline, entertainment, or restaurant industries, you’ll want to check out the reviews on the popular website, TripAdvisor. As the largest travel site in the world, it has over 225 million reviews, opinions, and photos taken by travelers. It also has some awesome content on low airfares, travel guides, rental listings, and advice forums for pretty much every location in the world you could possibly imagine. A lot of people look there before booking a trip.
The key to a successful profile on TripAdvisor is making it as close to the top of the popularity index as possible, so that people searching for information in a specific place see your listing. According to TripAdvisor, the popularity ranking algorithm is based on three key components: quantity, quality, and recency of reviews. Here’s an excerpt of the advice they give businesses looking to improve their ranking:
“Quantity: Ask your guests to write reviews, and use our management center tools to remind them after they check out. Offering incentives for reviews is against the rules, though — take a look at our policy to make sure you understand what is and isn’t okay.
Quality: Guests who enjoyed first class hospitality and a memorable experience are more likely to write positive reviews. Monitor what previous reviewers have written to see what worked and did not work best for your property so you can maintain and improve your service.
Recency: Recent reviews factor more strongly on your popularity rankings and older reviews have less impact on a hotel’s ranking over time. Once again, encourage guests to write reviews to keep fresh content rolling in. “
Benefits of TripAdvisor:
TripAdvisor has collected over 887 million reviews for eight million companies.
TripAdvisor Plus gives you access to discount hotel pricing for over 100,000 locations.
The average TripAdvisor Plus member saves about $350 the first time they use their membership.
TripAdvisor Business Advantage showcases your company’s best reviews so customers see them first when reviewing your profile.
10. Yelp
Yelp is a free review site that lets consumers rate businesses on a five-star scale. Any business can set up a profile on Yelp for free, and users can set up their own free profiles to review a business. You’re free to respond to reviewers, too, but we recommend taking a balanced and polite approach to any negative reviews you receive, as Yelpers are in a pretty tight-knit community.
Yelp has also come under fire over the past few years for some slightly shady practices, like incentivizing businesses to advertise with them in exchange for gaming the search results for their business (“Pay us money and we’ll push bad reviews down!”). Savvier consumers have learned to look at Yelp reviews as a whole and with the reviewer’s clout in mind, instead of getting turned off by a business because of one bad listing.
That being said, it’s still to your benefit to get a constant stream of positive online reviews coming to your business’ Yelp account so happy customers are always at the top of your review feed — especially if you’re a location-based business. Yelp profile information contains things like store hours and location information, so your profile will often turn up when people Google your business.
Benefits of Yelp:
Yelp has roughly 184 million monthly users worldwide.
Anyone can sign up for Yelp and it’s fairly easy for customers to leave a review — making it a good source of customer feedback.
Yelp users are a tight-knit community. Active users will provide a lot of detailed feedback for your business.
Research shows an increase of one star in your Yelp rating can increase revenue by 5-9%.
11. Citysearch
Citysearch has all of the functionality as the other review sites in this category, but what makes it unique is its “best of” winners that you can search for in each city. For example, if you’re a french fry lover like myself, you can search for “the best french fries in Boston,” and Citysearch will give you a list of restaurants with excellent fries.
Image Source
Benefits of Citysearch:
Citysearch uses a bi-modal, thumbs up/thumbs down rating system. This is calculated based on the percentage of users/scouts that have recommended the business.
Cityseach has over 20 categories to browse through. Each one shows results filtered to the location that you specify.
Users can write only one review per business. This prevents fake or unfair reviews and keeps ratings accurate.
12. Google My Business
You know those reviews that show up when you search Google for a business? Yeah, those things are on this list in a big way.
Google’s Pigeon algorithm update uses distance and location ranking parameters to deliver improved local search results. So, in order for your business’ website to be properly optimized for search, you’ll want to set up verified accounts with local directories — especially Google’s, called “Google My Business.” Getting reviews, comments, pictures, and so on, especially on Google, can give you a boost in search. Only verified local Google+ pages can respond to reviews.
An added bonus? Google Maps pulls that information and those reviews into the app, so having a lot of content in there will make your business look more reputable.
Benefits of Google My Business:
Google is the world’s largest search engine and controls over 90% of the search engine marketshare.
Google can localize your review search, meaning it will only show results for businesses located in the area that you searched.
It’s free to create and customize your Google Business Profile. Setting up only takes a few minutes.
Nearly 10% of Google’s search algorithm is influenced by Google Reviews. The more positive reviews that you have, the higher your business will rank on SERPs.
13. Yahoo! Localworks
Similar to Google My Business reviews, Yahoo! Local reviews let users post reviews of businesses with a five-star rating system. Here’s what the results might look like:
According to Statista, Yahoo! still receives about 3% of search engine share. So while you might not want to invest time figuring out the intricacies of Yahoo!’s algorithm, obtaining some favorable reviews on the Yahoo! Localworks sure couldn’t hurt for that 3%.
Benefits of Yahoo! Local Listings:
Yahoo! Localworks integrates other popular review sites into your business profile. That way, you can see all of your customer reviews in one place rather than having to log into separate accounts.
When you update your business information in Localworks, it updates your company profile on all of the customer review sites that you have linked to your account.
Yahoo! Localworks triggers a notification every time a customer leaves a review, making it easier to respond quicker to negative reviews.
14. Influenster
If you sell consumer products, Influenster is a review site you’ll want to make sure you’ve covered.
Influenster features customer reviews and news about consumer products — primarily skincare, beauty, makeup, hair, and other health and body products. Visitors can search the site by brand name or by a specific product they’re looking for, and Influenster links to websites where visitors can buy the products.

Customer Review Sites for Both B2B & B2C Companies
22.
Better Business Bureau
A nonprofit site, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) evaluates all types of businesses against a set of best practices for how businesses should treat the public. It doesn’t directly recommend or endorse any businesses, products, or services; it simply provides the public with information about businesses, and whether they have met the BBB’s accreditation standards. It will also review both accredited and non-accredited businesses.
A business’ profile listing on the BBB contains general overview information, like a short company bio and the company’s accreditation status, a history of any complaints made about the business and whether they were resolved, customer reviews, and the BBB’s A – F rating of the business.
Benefits of the Better Business Bureau:

23. Glassdoor

Employees can share what it’s like to interview and work at their companies, and the site shows visitors which companies are rated highest by their employees. Many employers use it to build their employment brand so they can target and recruit candidates, but you can also use the reviews to share ideas internally for improvement among your management team.

Rather than displaying the top customer reviews right away, Manta organizes search results based on the relevance of your keyword. Then it displays the list of companies with their contact information, so users can quickly connect with a business.
Manta is different than most review sites because it focuses more on connecting people than it does on reviewing products and services. To find customer reviews, you need to select a business, go to their individual listing page, and scroll past their features and products before seeing a review. That way, customers use the reviews as one of the final selling points for purchasing a product or service.
On Manta, the goal is to rank your business as high as possible for each relevant keyword that users can search. So long as your company is in the top search results, you’ll have a higher chance of connecting with leads using this site.

Other Places for Consumer Reviews
Online reviews also exist on sites that aren’t necessarily built just to publish online reviews. Some businesses use their social presence and website to encourage online reviews … and some brands just get them unsolicited, for better or for worse.
Here are some sites that, if you choose to (please, choose to) can serve as additional hubs for online reviews. And they’re awesome, because they have enormous reach, and you have some — if not entire — control over these properties.
27. Facebook Ratings & Reviews
Did you know there’s a place on Facebook for fans to leave ratings and reviews of your business? There sure is … it’s named, aptly, Facebook Ratings & Reviews. It appears on the left-hand side of your Facebook Page, and you can’t move or remove it like you can other parts of your Page.
Image Source
Anyone logged into Facebook can post a rating or review of a business. All they have to do is go to the Reviews section of your Page, click the grey stars to choose a rating, and then write an optional review. They can make that review public, visible to friends, or visible only to them.
Benefits of Facebook Ratings & Reviews:
There are more than 2.7 billion users who are active on Facebook each month.
To collect reviews on Facebook, all you need to do is set up a Facebook Business Profile.
2/3 of Facebook users visit a local business’s Facebook Profile at least once a week.
Facebook is a platform designed for communication. This increases the chance of having productive conversations with those who leave a review for your business.
28. Twitter
The ridiculously fast-paced nature of Twitter makes it seem like a weird place to try to accumulate reviews. But while users might not always search for reviews directly on Twitter (unless you started some kind of review hashtag, perhaps), tweets are still indexed in search results. That means a user’s tweet, whether complimentary or less-than, could pop up in the SERPs when someone’s searching for reviews on your business.
Not only that — there are things you can actively do with the positive tweets coming at you. For instance, we tested the element of social proof on conversions here at HubSpot, attaching three tweets that gave positive reviews on an ebook we were promoting at the time. Guess what happened? The CTA with the three tweets converted better than the CTA with no tweets. If you start to “Favorite” tweets that could serve as positive reviews in the future, it’ll be easier to find them when you want to use them in your marketing.
Benefits of Twitter:
There are over 186 million daily active users on Twitter.
Twitter lets you communicate both publicly and privately with users. This means you can respond to customers on your feed, but also move the conversation to direct messaging if needed.
Feedback on Twitter is very immediate. When customers want to voice an opinion about your business, they can do it almost instantly on Twitter.
Twitter reviews are qualitative. You don’t have to worry about an overall rating or satisfaction score when customers leave reviews.
29. Foursquare
Yes, people still use Foursquare. In fact, a ton of people are still using it: In January, Foursquare was racking up 55 million monthly active users (MAUs).
Not only can you check-in to different locations and businesses using the app, you can also leave reviews on Foursquare — making it another interesting platform where your brand or business could be discovered by potential customers looking for suggestions — and five-star reviews.
If your business depends on walk-in foot traffic — restaurants, coffee shops, shopping boutiques, etc. — make sure your Foursquare business profile is filled out and updated so people can find you when they go to check-in — and then ask your visitors to review you there.
Benefits of Foursquare:
There are over 55 million monthly active users on Foursquare.
Over two million businesses are using Foursquare to connect with customers.
Foursquare provides marketing tools for your business. You can give special promotions and discounts to existing customers as well as provide tips for new users who are visiting your business for the first time.
30. Superpages
Superpages lets you search for businesses based on their distance from you, overall rating, industry subcategory, online videos, and even promotional coupons.
Once you find a company that you like, this site shows you where the business is on the map as well as a review summary outlining all of the reviews left for the organization. Visitors can quickly assess what other users are saying about the business and use the coupon links to get the same deals as other customers.
Image Source
Benefits of Superpages:
Customers primarily use the map/location features to search for businesses. This is ideal for small- to medium-sized businesses that many only be located in a few areas.
Each company profile has a “view services” tab that explains exactly what the organization has to offer.
Superpages provides a service that evaluates your brand’s online reputation for free.
Superpages is centered around local participation. So, you can trust that reviews left for your business are coming from customers in your area.
31. Top Ten Reviews
It’s hard to resist a good top 10 list. Top Ten Reviews satisfies this craving by giving visitors a list of 10, detailed reviews for every post on the site. These posts have a wide topic range as well, touching on everything from mattresses to landscaping to laptops.
Image Source
There’s also a “trending” bar that shows you categories that are currently popular on the site. As a business owner, this can give you an idea of what consumers are buying more of at that particular moment.
Benefits of Top Ten Reviews:
Top Ten Reviews has reviews for products ranging everywhere from gas-powered lawnmowers to eyeglasses.
Each review has an “our verdict” section that summarizes the pros and cons of each product as well as whether or not the website would recommend it.
For each product, Top Ten Reviews provides the latest deals available and links users to where they can find them.
Top Ten Reviews are very detailed. They have sections outlining the product’s features, its specs, overall performance, user testimonials, and more.
32. Your Own Website
Finally, the one place where you have total and utter control: your website. It’s an excellent place to publicize reviews you receive (perhaps embed some of those tweets you favorited?).
You could carve out a section of your website dedicated just to reviews and testimonials, and even include a form so happy customers can submit their unsolicited reviews.
But if you’re actively campaigning for positive online reviews and you encounter happy customers who want to leave you a positive review but don’t have accounts on sites like Yelp, Angie’s List, or Google, it’s handy to have a place on your website to publish their kind words. Consider adding testimonials to landing pages and product pages, too.
Benefits of your own website:
You have complete control over the format and rating system for your reviews.
You can dictate which reviews you want to publish on your website.
Having reviews on your website is timely. People browsing your site can read your positive reviews as they’re shopping for your products.
Which customer review site is best?
The easy answer is all of them. The right answer is a little more subjective.
The best customer review site for your business will be whichever one(s) your customers are using most. The more reviews you obtain, the more you’ll learn about your business and how customers feel about you.
Choose a handful from the list above and get started collecting reviews that can help improve and grow your business.

The Best Yelp Alternatives for Business Reviews
Business review websites collect customer reviews about the companies they do business with, sharing honest feedback.
Yelp is considered the top review site, particularly for local business marketing, but it isn’t the only game in town.
Google Business Profile, Facebook Page reviews, Angi, the Better Business Bureau, ConsumerAffairs and Foursquare are some Yelp alternatives.
This article is for small business owners exploring review sites to receive honest feedback and improve their companies.
The modern consumer thrives on information. Before making a buying decision, customers have long sought out the opinions and experiences of others to find out whether or not a company is credible.
Today, this process is quick, easy, and accessible to anyone with a computer or smartphone and an internet connection. There are few better sources of information for consumers than business review websites.
Yelp is considered the top review site for marketing local businesses. However, it is far from the only reputable business review site. Others may even prove more beneficial for niche products or services.
These 14 review websites are worth looking into if you need honest feedback or ways to improve your business.
What are business review websites?
Business review websites collect customer reviews about the companies they do business with. These aren’t professional reviews, and they aren’t paid – they are from actual customers sharing their honest feedback.
For instance, say you recently hired a local company to install a fence in your backyard. After the service is completed, you can review that company on a business review website.
When you leave a review, you’ll often choose a letter or number rating. You’ll usually have the option to summarize your thoughts about the service you received.
By sharing your positive or negative experience, you help other potential customers decide whether or not to use that company in the future.
Tip: Another way for businesses to solicit honest consumer feedback is by conducting business surveys.
How can business review websites benefit your company?
Many businesses feel nervous at the thought of customers leaving them a review, but customer reviews can be a powerful tool for your company. Here are some of the ways business review websites can benefit you:
They create social proof.

Top 10 Tips
Disclaimer
Federal and state laws leave it largely up to employers and employees to work out what the pay or compensation agreement will be. Employers must take care to stick to what the employees have been promised in the way of pay methods and pay rates. A wage agreement can be established by both verbal and written evidence, so all oral and written communications to employees regarding pay should be carefully expressed. Since state payday laws are enforced according to the terms of the wage agreement, employers need to ensure that they say what they mean and mean what they say. Wage agreements that are ambiguous, i.e., can be understood in two or more different ways by reasonable people, will usually be resolved against the employer, since the employer was presumably in charge of how the agreement was reached and is responsible for expressing its intent clearly.
Do not worry about a written wage agreement interfering with an at-will employment relationship. Courts seem to be unanimous that unless an agreement shows a clear intent to create a definite term or duration of employment, the presumption will remain that the employment is intended to be of indefinite duration, i.e., terminable at will by either party. For added security, though, it is a good idea to include a standard employment at will disclaimer in a compensation agreement (note: this is only an example. You should consult your own employment law attorney about this type of disclaimer before implementing it in any form of agreement):
Employment at Will Disclaimer
I understand that this agreement concerning my compensation and benefits does not modify the at will employment relationship between myself and ABC Company; does not constitute a commitment by ABC Company to employ me for any particular length of time; does not commit me to remain with ABC Company for any particular length of time; and does not restrict either ABC Company or myself from ending the employment relationship at any time for any reason, with or without notice.
Under the general common law, an employer must pay an employee according to the wage agreement that was in effect when the work was performed. This general rule finds expression to one degree or another in the Fair Labor Standards Act and in almost every state wage payment statute. If there is no written agreement, agencies and courts will use some variation of the “best evidence” rule to determine what the employer and employee “agreed” to when the employment relationship was formed. Whoever has the best evidence of the rate of pay and the method of pay will usually prevail on those points. In Texas, the common-law rule is known as quantum meruit. If a worker performs services for an individual or company, but there is no clear agreement on the rate of pay, method of pay, and so on, the law presumes that the employer agreed to pay a reasonable rate of pay for the type of work performed, and “reasonable” would be up to a judge or jury to decide (see the Texas Supreme Court’s decision in Colbert v. Dallas Joint Stock Land Bank, 136 Tex. 268, 150 S.W.2d 771, 773 (Tex. 1941)).
Reductions in the pay rate are legal, but should never be retroactive (see below). Remember that pay cuts of 20% or more may give an employee good cause connected with the work to quit and qualify for unemployment benefits. Notice of any changes in the pay rate should always be in writing, for the company’s own protection, in order to minimize disputes over the rate of pay.
Some companies have employees sign policies providing for a complete forfeiture of pay for the final pay period if the employee violates an employment agreement or a particular policy. That would not be legal – an employee is not allowed to waive his or her right to minimum wage or overtime pay. It is generally permissible to have the employee agree that in the event of a violation of an agreement or policy, his or her pay rate for the final pay period will be a lower rate (it can be no lower than minimum wage). However, agreements like this are largely untested before the agency and in the courts. While the author has not seen an employer lose with a suitably-worded agreement, some attorneys at TWC have commented that such agreements are suspect from the standpoint that an employee does not know when such a provision might affect his pay because he does not know when to expect a discharge. However, an employer can take a lot of the ambiguity out of such an agreement by making the lower pay rate apply only to work occurring after the violation by the employee. That way, the company can argue that the employee knows when to expect lower pay because the timing of the violation was arguably within his power to control. For suggestions on wage agreement language to address specific problems, see the topics “Frequency of Pay” and “Final Pay” in this book.
Company signatures on pay agreements are not absolutely required, but are generally a good idea. Such agreements are valid without signatures by a company representative, but without the signatures, it can be easier for a former employee to disavow their own signature and claim that their signature was forged. Also, courts often indicate that counter-signed documents show that the company intended for the document to be mutually binding, which is something that generally works in favor of enforceability of whatever agreements are at issue. Accordingly, try to have any such agreement counter-signed by a company representative who is likely to be available to serve as a witness in case the authenticity of the employee’s signature ever becomes an issue.

By Nick Kraakman
Value investors like Warren Buffett have only two goals: 1) find excellent businesses and 2) determine what they are worth. But in order to determine what a company is worth, you will have to predict how fast the business will be able to grow its earnings in the future. 10) while company B will only be earning $16.3 million.
So while both companies started out from the exact same position, I’m pretty sure you would rather own company A than company B. This goes to show how much impact the growth rate has on the value of a company. And it is exactly because the growth rate is so important that we have to be extra careful when inputting one into our calculations. So how can you determine a realistic growth rate for the company you are analyzing?
Analyst Estimates
By far the easiest way to come up with a growth rate is to see what analysts are saying. Analysts are employees of financial institutions who sniff through every available piece of information that is known about a company and then make a prediction about how well they expect the company to perform in the next few years. For example, on Yahoo Finance you can find out that, on average, analysts expect that Apple (AAPL) will grow its earnings at a rate of 12.24% per year for the coming 5 years.
Seems like a great plan to listen to what these analysts are saying, because they are the experts, rights? They studied for years and then had to pass a host of brutal tests and interviews to finally become a recognized financial analyst. Still, research by McKinsey & Co.concluded that Wall Street analysts are as good as always too optimistic.
But what is too optimistic? Well, the authors state that “on average, analysts’ forecasts have been almost 100 percent too high.” 100%!! So if analysts say they expect a company to grow its earnings at 10% a year, the actual growth will most likely be closer to 5% a year. This is an embarrassingly big difference which will render your valuations wholly inaccurate. So while you could use analysts estimates, take them with a grain of salt. Although a bag of salt might be more appropriate.
The sheer lack of sell ratings and the consistently too-high target prices in the above chart further highlight the general over-optimism of Wall Street analysts. 1/10).
So over the last 10 years Google has, on average, grown its EPS with 38.8% a year. Now ask yourself, is it realistic to expect that Google will keep growing at that rate for the coming 10 years? Keep in mind that this means Google will have to earn 26 times more in ten years time than the $13.2 billion they are earning today! This seems highly unlikely. Even our over-optimistic analyst friends agree and expect a 16.7% growth rate, which is still really good, but not nearly as high as the historical growth rate of 38.8%!
“In the business world, the rearview mirror is always clearer than the windshield.”
Warren Buffett
You just can’t extrapolate historical earnings growth into the future, because as a company becomes bigger and bigger, it becomes harder and harder to keep up a high growth rate. This phenomenon is called the Law of Large Numbers. So expect growth rates to shrink over time and don’t blindly apply historical growth rates to the future.
Imagine Toothpick Inc., a company selling, as you might have guessed, toothpicks. They collect $20 million from investors to manufacture their initial batch of toothpicks. This money shows up on their balance sheet as Shareholders’ Equity. With this $20 million they are able to generate $5 million in net income, which results in a Return on Equity (ROE) of 25% ($5 million / $20 million).
Toothpick Inc. now has $20 million in equity and $5 million in earnings. In theory, they could reinvest all of these earnings into the company (such earnings are called Retained Earnings) which would increase their Shareholders’ Equity to $25 million. In this case, they grow their Shareholders’ Equity by 25% ($25 million – $20 million / $20 million), which is equal to their ROE. The next year they earn a 25% ROE over their now bigger pile of equity, which is why the ROE can be seen as a growth rate.
However, using the ROE as a growth rate would be a severe oversimplification of how things work in the real world. For example, some of the earnings might not be reinvested but paid out as a dividend instead, and some of the earnings might be needed for maintenance and replacement of equipment and will therefore not directly contribute to the growth of the business. Let’s look at how we can tweak this ROE ratio to provide us with a more realistic growth rate.
There exists something called the Sustainable Growth Rate. The name suggests that this is exactly what we need, so let’s take a closer look.
The Sustainable Growth Rate is the maximum rate at which a company can grow without taking on additional debt. This is good, because we want to invest in companies which are able to fund their growth with their own earnings. The Sustainable Growth Rate is calculated as follows:
ROE x (1 – dividend payout ratio)
It takes the ROE ratio and adjusts it for any dividends that are paid out, because only Retained Earnings (Net Income – Dividends) can be used to grow the business. If Toothpick Inc. would pay out 40% of its Net Income as dividends, their Sustainable Growth Rate would be 15% (25% x 60%). This indicates that Toothpick Inc. should be able to grow at a maximum rate of 15% per year without having to take on additional debt.
A Realistic Growth Rate
However, what we are looking for is a realistic rate at which we can expect a company to grow over the coming years, not a maximum rate. This makes the Sustainable Growth Rate far from perfect. If, for example, the company decides to take on $10 million in Long-Term Debt to generate more earnings, the amount of Shareholders’ Equity would remain the same, but the ROE figure would nevertheless rise because of the higher earnings. So ROE is flawed because it does not take debt into account and because ROE is a key input for the Sustainable Growth Rate, it too is flawed. In addition, some of the Retained Earnings will have to be used for the maintenance and replacement of machines, and will therefore not directly result in growth.
So how do we fix this? Well, we could add Long-Term Debt to Shareholders’ Equity before calculating the return, which essentially means we are no longer using the Return on Equity but the Return on Capital. This way we take debt into account. Also, we could use Depreciation & Amortization expenses as a proxy of maintenance and replacement costs of machines, and therefore subtract this from retained earnings to get a more accurate view of the amount of money that can be used to grow the business. Let’s call this the Sustainable Growth Rate+, which is also what I have implemented in the Intrinsic Value models of the brand-new PREMIUM Value Spreadsheet.
So is this then the perfect formula for growth? Not quite. We are still basing this formula on a lot of assumptions. That is why I suggest you compare this rate to the analyst expectations and historical EPS growth rate to make sure you are not being overly optimistic. Also, look at how consistent the earnings of the company have been over the past ten years. If earnings have been steadily increasing year after year, you can have a certain amount of confidence in your growth rate. If, however, earnings fluctuate wildly, an accurate prediction is as good as impossible to make and you should use a considerable Margin of Safety in your calculations. Finally, compute the Sustainable Growth Rate+ for the last couple of years to see if it is relatively stable or highly volatile.
Conclusion
In this article I have tried to highlight the importance of growth rates in calculating the value of a company, as well as showing you that it is not an easy task. The key lesson is that there isn’t one perfect way to determine a growth rate, but by combining several sources and by being conservative, you should be able to make a realistic estimate of future growth as long as the company has shown consistent, stable earnings. Good luck guys!

Company Growth Rate – Baremetrics
According to Paul Graham, VC and co-founder of Y-combinator, if there is one metric every founder should know, it is the company growth rate. The growth rate is the measure of a company’s increase in revenue and potential to expand over a set period.
Because it is one of the main metrics for assessing the potential of startup companies and is a measure of the percentage increase in revenue for a company. In other words, a company’s growth rate is an indicator of company profitability and sustainability. This percentage is an indicator of how rapidly a company grows and its projected growth over time.
The growth rate can be given as a weekly, monthly, or annual rate depending upon the company’s industry and stage of growth. It can be calculated at any stage of growth given the correct data by the company or by investors wanting to understand the future of a startup.
There are various ways to calculate the growth rate depending upon which industry the company is involved in, the current capabilities of the company, the current funding phase, and the age of the company, among other factors.
While there are a number of options, this simple formula can be used to calculate revenue growth rate on a monthly basis:
There different approaches and several other considerations that can be taken into account when calculating growth rates of a company. For example, experts suggest starting the math with a company’s expenses and checking “key ratios” such as the operating profit margin and the “headcount per client” (i.e., the number of employees per client).
Other rules of thumb include doubling cost estimations for advertising and tripling estimations for legal and insurance costs, as these categories often incur hidden expenses or vary from provider to provider. In addition, you can monitor customer service time to give a starting point for estimating future labor costs as the business grows. It is also suggested that you calculate a conservative growth rate and an aggressive growth rate to provide to investors.
Other considerations that should be taken into account when determining a growth rate include the retention rate, marketing techniques and their efficacy, product seasonality, and the stage of company expansion. Any one of these, or a combination thereof, could affect the growth rate.
It is also important to keep in mind that…
Businesses built from the ground up will tend to have greater growth rates, as zero to any amount of revenue is a large increase.
Growth rates will vary for different industries.
Factors like setup times, adoption speed, sales cycles and market opportunities will also vary based on the stage of growth.
A company can use its growth rate for the following purposes:
To secure funding from investors or lenders, who use the metric to evaluate the startup’s current and potential growth.
To develop operational and staffing plans that will best benefit the future of the company. Since the growth rate can be calculated on a weekly, monthly, or longer basis, it is easy to see how small alterations in pricing, staffing, or other day-to-day minutiae can have a very dramatic impact on outcomes.
To determine how best to allocate resources. If the business grows too quickly and initial resources are used up without a plan or it grows too slowly and resources are wasted, costing money, then a company can be negatively affected or shut down.
Investors also use the growth rate metric to forecast growth and get an idea of the potential return on investment. So, for startups, it is imperative to show investors both short-term and long-term growth rates.
Why? Because, a new business may not generate revenues that considerably affect its financials in the first year. However, the business may project to see growth during that time and begin to show a return on investment within two or more years.
Growth rates vary from industry to industry. For example, in industries that are currently billed as the “hottest” for startup companies and expansion, some examples of average growth rates include:
2.4% annually for fitness companies
30.4% annually for drone companies
24.6% annually for fraud detection companies
However, as a general benchmark companies should have on average between 15% and 45% of year-over-year growth. According to a SaaS survey, companies with less than $2 million annually tend to have higher growth rates.
Growth rates are the measure of a company’s increase in revenue and potential to expand over a set period. Therefore, your growth rate should be a key focus in your business. After all, you will need it to help plan resource use for the future and to possibly draw in investors looking for startups with potential.
While growth rates vary by industry, there are several growth strategies that can grow your revenues significantly. Tools like the revenue forecaster and revenue dashboard can also help you keep an eye on this vital metric.
How to value a business using three approaches?
How to value a business using three approaches?
Business valuation – calculation of the value of a company or a share in it, in which an expert analyzes the company’s performance in three approaches. In the article, we will analyze approaches to assessing a share in a business using the example of the tea bag manufacturer Chaika.
Why the company is valued
With a valuation report, it is not scary to sell the company cheap or invest in an unsuccessful project. Company rating needed for:
buying or selling a business and an interest in it;
mergers with other firms;
decisions to issue or sell securities;
preparing or updating a business plan;
optimization or restructuring of an enterprise;
comparison of the investment attractiveness of the project with other options for investing money.
Business valuation uses: income, comparative and cost approaches. Each of the approaches has assessment methods that differ in the way information is collected and analyzed. The choice of method depends on the goals of business valuation and the state of the company.
The company “Chaika” produces tea bags. One of the co-founders wanted to develop another project and decided to sell a stake in the business to partners. The partner’s share is 30%, you need to estimate its cost. In yellow cells, the forecast of income and expenses for the next 5 years, in green – data for 2019. The information was provided by the company’s managers, but the appraiser can calculate the forecast on his own.
Income approach
The income approach is based on the sum of expected returns plus their time value. For the calculation, the methods of discounting the estimated cash flows and direct capitalization are used.
Discounting – evaluation of the receipt of money in the company at the discount rate. The method is based on the fact that the money and assets that the company has at the time of the assessment are worth more than the same money and assets in the future. Discounting is used in cases where the appraiser is not sure about the stability of the company’s profit, which means that profit over a period of time may differ from profit at the time of valuation.
Under the direct capitalization method, the valuation depends on the annual income of the organization, adjusted for the planned growth rate of the business. This method is suitable for stable growing companies.
Cash flows are determined based on the forecast of income and expenses, and the time value depends on the required rate of return of the object of assessment. To determine the required return, we studied the alternatives to buying out a stake in a project and the risks associated with it. For example, investors could put money in Sberbank at 6% per annum – the risk is low, the return is low. Or launch two new projects: one with a 30% return at above average risk, the other with a 22% return and below average risk. So we came to the value of 25%.
Comparative approach
In the comparative approach, the company being valued is compared with similar organizations. The accuracy of the estimate depends on the reliability of data on competitors. To evaluate a business using a comparative approach, methods of transactions, capital market and industry coefficients are used.
With the transaction method, the basis for calculation is the purchase price of a similar business in its entirety or the price of a block of shares. In the capital market method, the price of one share is calculated depending on the price of a share in a similar company. The method of industry coefficients is the ratio between the value of a business and its financial performance. To evaluate a business, you need to calculate the industry indicators of different enterprises. For example, for oil and gas companies, the coefficients are based on the ratio of the value of the company and the volume of reserves, for telecom operators – on the ratio of price and user base.
It is difficult to find exactly the same organizations on the market, so we evaluated competitors according to suitable parameters: revenue, net profit, company value. Price to Sales – the ratio of the company’s value to revenue, Price to Earning – the ratio of the company’s value to net profit. Based on the given coefficients, we calculated the cost of “The Seagull”. Then they took the average value – 26 million and calculated the share of the partner.
Cost approach
In the cost approach, the price of a business is equal to the price of the company’s assets. It is necessary to provide the expert with accurate information about the costs of acquiring and maintaining property and valuables. For calculations, the net asset method and the salvage value method are used.
In the net asset method, the market value of each property is determined, and then debt obligations are deducted from the total assets. If the company decides to close, it is valued using the liquidation value method. Then the value of the business depends on the amount of the sale of each asset separately.
We evaluated tangible assets and inventories, and also took into account intangible assets – the company’s brand. The cost of the company’s debt was subtracted from the total assets and the resulting value was multiplied by the partner’s share in the business.
How to evaluate the value of your business
To obtain the final value of the object of assessment, you need to use the results of each approach and calculate the average value. The appraisal report will be useful if the appraiser has chosen suitable methods for calculations.
If the cost of one of the methods is very different from the other two, you need to figure it out and find the reason. Often the lowest value is obtained from the cost approach due to the difficulty in estimating the market value of assets. For example, equipment has been at the factory for a long time, depreciated, which means it costs quite low. But using old equipment, it is still possible to produce products that will bring good profits. The situation is similar with the company’s brand – by itself, it can formally cost nothing, but generate income.
When evaluating a company, you need to:
take into account the industry in which the company operates;
know the market situation;
be able to collect and analyze data.

How to assess the value of a company – a ready-made algorithm
For many Belarusian owners, the issue of business valuation causes difficulties. Viktor Denisevich, a financial analyst at Zubr Capital, talks about the most practical valuation method and gives a formula for calculating the value of a company.
Photo from topdialog.ru
– Company valuation is like playing chess. A chess player who plays white and one who plays black can evaluate the position on the board differently. Likewise, the owner and investor are likely to have different views of the same company.
Obviously, this is because the owner and the investor have different goals. From the owner – to sell the company or part of it for the highest possible cost, from the investor – to buy a share or the entire company for the lowest possible amount.
When it comes to estimating the value of a company, there are an almost infinite number of ways to form it. But the most practical and adequate in this matter is comparative method .
Its essence is that you form an estimate, not only based on the internal resources of the company, but, first of all, based on information about the value of peer companies.
Let’s say we have a fictitious company “A”, which is engaged in the production of shoes in Poland. Let’s look at her example, how the valuation of the company is formed.
If you want to know the value of your company, the first thing to do is to start with a benchmark. That is, choose companies-analogues and analyze their value. Of course, the availability of this information depends, first of all, on the development of the stock market and the openness of the M&A market in the region.
The first difficulty that you will encounter is the almost complete lack of information about peer companies, on the basis of which you can build an assessment in our country. How to solve this problem?
There are two verified sources of information:
data from public companies around the world
information about M&A transactions not only in Belarus, but also abroad
As a result, you will receive an array of data on different companies, regions, etc. d. Now the task is to choose the correct peer companies on the basis of which you will make your assessment. To do this, you need:
1. Define a wide sample of companies according to the general criteria that characterize your company (industry, region, revenue, product or service).
Let’s look at our company “A”. Using data on public businesses, we will compile a list of companies involved in the production of shoes in Europe. Here are 11 companies that, in their main characteristics, are similar to ours.
2. The next step is to narrow down this list using niche criteria. This includes market share, level of competition, management team, growth potential, financial performance, etc.
In our example, we will adjust the sample based on financial indicators. We are interested in companies with revenues from $30 million to $ 150 million So, we have 5 companies (highlighted in dark). Revenue figures are in $ million.
The next step is to choose a multiplier based on which we will evaluate our company.
Historically there are 3 types of multipliers:
interval (determines the value of the company based on its performance and is the most common, for example, EV/EBITDA)
moment (the value is determined based on the performance of the company at the reporting date, for example, from the statement of financial position) a sample of 5 peer companies was obtained, and each of them has its own multiplier value. The next goal is to determine the value of the multiplier for your company based on the data obtained. For this you need:
1. Cut off extreme and/or unrepresentative values of the multipliers of peer companies .
After reviewing more detailed data, we found that the multiple for Fenghua SoleTech AG is not representative.
2. Weigh the interim results
After analyzing the remaining companies, we came to the conclusion that based on the region, strategy, market share, financial indicators, we should use the following weights to calculate the multiplier.
At the output, we got that the multiplier for our company “A” is 6.296.
3. Make final adjustments (for example, regional discounts).
We need to understand what fundamental relationships affect the formation of the multiplier.
This dependence is expressed by a formula that at first glance seems terribly complex.
EV/EBITDA = f(G,Ke,MARG,T) = f(G,BETA,DUM,MARG,T)
In essence, this formula answers the fundamental question: “What determines the value of your company ?
It depends on:
your business margin, i.e. net profit margin (abbreviation “MARG”)
the country in which your company operates (abbreviated “DUM”)
the industry in which you work (in our formula it is “BETA”)
from the tax rate that falls on your company (“T” – in our formula)
the company’s growth potential in the coming years (we use it as a variable “G”)
the company’s equity value (usually denoted by the symbol “Ke”)
country risks.
Each country causes certain risks for the investor.
According to the authoritative American researcher Aswat Damodaron, the table of country risks looks like this:
Similarly, industry risk is determined, which also affects the valuation of the company.
Let’s calculate the adjustments for our company “A”. Initially, our multiplier was set at 6.296. Let’s look at the risks: we can exclude some of the risks and variables, for example, the country risk, because practically all companies from Poland got into the field of our comparison.
If we assume that the profitability of our company is somewhat lower than the industry average in Poland, then we need to take into account the discount on profitability. In addition, Company A does not have audited financial statements in accordance with international standards. In this connection, it is necessary to make a discount to our calculated multiplier.
As a result, our company will be worth 5. 91 EBITDA.
Thus, in the example of the conditional company “A”, we see that the value depends on many variables and contexts that are important to consider.
You can see how different valuations can differ for the same company using the Deal simulator.
All in all, valuing a company is as exciting as playing chess.
Company valuations – Habr Career
The company rating service was launched on Habr Career in July 2018. With the help of the service, everyone can find out what their current and former employees think about the company as an employer. The task of the service is to make the labor market in IT more transparent and make it easier for employers and job seekers to find each other.
Habr Career guarantees complete anonymity of grades: they are shown only in anonymized form or aggregated with other grades.
How to rate yourself
To rate the company where you work or have worked, you need to go to its main page and click on the “Give your rating” button in the rating block.
How the score works
Each company is evaluated according to 12 criteria, for each it receives a score from 1 to 5. Based on these scores, the average score of the company as a whole is calculated .
Each company is also evaluated by how likely it is to be recommended as an employer to their friends, receiving a score from 0 to 100%. This is how 9 is calculated0103 average recommendation of companies and loyalty index of employees.
You can also talk in free form about pluses of and minuses of companies.
All assessments collected by the company are aggregated into charts, and also displayed separately in an anonymized form: the date of assessment is shown, whether this is an employee or a past employee, as well as the employee’s specialization, if he wishes to indicate it himself.
Aggregate estimates
Separate rating
Rules for collecting and displaying ratings
Any user registered on the service who has experience in the relevant company can leave a rating.
The rating becomes public and is shown to all users and guests of the service when the company reaches the required rating limit from its employees. Up to this point, the score is not visible to anyone. Valuation limits are set based on the size of companies:
huge (from 5000 employees) — 75 ratings;
large (1000-5000 employees) – 50 ratings;
medium (100-1000 employees) – 25 ratings;
small (up to 100 employees) — 10 ratings.
Company curators cannot delete ratings, but they can leave official responses to them. They can also disable the collection of new ratings and the visibility of the rating box in the company profile.
Users of Habr Career can complain about any assessment by clicking on the appropriate button and sending a complaint to the service administration indicating the reason.
Questionnaire with a rating
To rate a company, you need to complete the following survey.
Average recommendation and loyalty index
The first question measures the employee’s loyalty to the company as an employer: “How likely is it that you will recommend the company to your friends and acquaintances as an employer”?
You can give an answer from 0 – definitely do not recommend, up to 10 – definitely recommend, the question is mandatory. Based on the totality of all answers, the average recommendation of the company as an employer (as a weighted average) and the employee loyalty index eNPS (employee Net Promotion Score) are then calculated.
Scores on 12 criteria and the average score of the company
Followed by questions that evaluate the company on 12 criteria. Each can be answered from 1 – completely disagree, to 5 – completely agree, all questions are mandatory. For all answers, the average score for each of the criteria (as a weighted average) and the average score of the company (as the arithmetic mean of the scores for all criteria) are calculated.
Interesting tasks. The company solves interesting problems
Modern technologies. The company uses modern technologies
Adequate salary. Salaries in the company correspond to the professional level of employees and the complexity of the tasks they perform
Social package. The company provides a good social package and non-financial bonuses
Comfortable working conditions. The company provides comfortable working conditions (office, work schedule, workplace, places for recreation)
Professional growth. The company has the opportunity to learn and grow professionally at work
Career growth. The company has the opportunity to grow career or move between different projects
Relations with colleagues. Comfortable working atmosphere in the company in teams
Recognition of work results. In the company, the work done is always recognized by the management
Management literacy. The company has competent project and product management
Communication with top management The company has established communication between top management and employees
The company makes the world a better place. The company’s products and services really help people and make the world a better place
Three optional open-ended questions
Three optional open-ended questions end the survey:
Benefits. What are the main advantages of working for the company?
Disadvantages. What are the main disadvantages of working in a company?
General feedback. What else would you like to tell about working for the company that would be important for others to know?
Configuring the collection and display of ratings
Curators of the company can disable and enable the collection and display of ratings from their company: then no one, including them, sees the company’s ratings. The page with this rating setting is located in the company’s account.
Curators can also speed up the collection of their company grades. To do this, they just need to distribute among the employees a link that leads to the evaluation form. You can get such a link on the same page of the company ratings settings.

Article published in Harvard Business Review Russia

, Peter Fader
In June 2019, the online clothing store Revolve Group went public. In anticipation of this event, investors unsuccessfully tried to objectively assess the value of the company. Several recent IPOs, such as taxi services Uber and Lyft, fell short of expectations. Revolve delayed going public for months due to a downturn in the stock market. Despite all the obstacles, its shares were valued at $ 1.2 billion – and on the first day of trading soared by 89%, showing perhaps the best result among all IPOs in 2019. After this jump, the company’s estimated value was about 4.5 times its revenue in the previous 12 months, five times more than other fashion retailers and close to the performance of IT companies. What happened and why didn’t investors immediately see how strong Revolve’s position was?
Such a high estimated value of the company is not accidental. It is explained by powerful hidden factors that underwriters underestimated when calculating the IPO price. The strength of the company was not so much in the rapid growth of revenue, but in the ability to work with customers. In other words, Revolve not only effectively attracted customers, but also retained them over the years: thus, its long-term profit potential was higher than its revenue dynamics would suggest.
Revolve’s IPO success signaled a change in the way we invest, with consumers becoming more and more of a focus. In our study, we explain the procedure for assessing the value of companies by customers (CBCV) – that is, based on consumer metrics. This methodology involves a significant departure from the familiar but dangerous concept of “growth at any cost” towards sustainable revenue and unit economics, and also allows you to bring more accuracy, responsibility and validity to the new loyalty economy.
In this article, we will explain how CEOs and investors can apply the principles of CBCV to more accurately value a company. This method works whether the organization generates predictable, recurring revenue from subscriptions (like Netflix or Verizon) or active customers who make occasional individual orders (like Uber or Walmart). In addition, we’ll show you how a company can benefit from providing investors with more relevant customer data, and how investors can’t be fooled by pretty numbers that capture customer behavior well but don’t mean as much as they seem.
REFINED INCOME FORECASTING METHOD
The CBCV method is based on a simple principle. Most traditional financial valuation methodologies require quarterly financial projections, primarily for revenue. CBCV takes into account the fact that every dollar of revenue comes from a customer who makes a purchase, and based on the principles of accounting, the revenue forecast is made not “from above”, but “from below”. It may seem that our approach is contrary to traditional schemes, but this is not so: CBCV simply places more emphasis on the impact of individual client behavior on the final result.
What is needed to implement the CBCV method? In addition to the usual financial reporting data, two things are needed: a customer behavior model (we call it a customer base model) and the customer data that we load into it. The model consists of four interconnected sub-models that define the future behavior of each customer.
1. A customer acquisition model that predicts the influx of new customers.
2. A customer retention model that predicts how long the customer will be active.
3. A buying model that predicts the frequency of a customer’s transactions with a firm.
4. Cart size model that predicts how much a customer spends on each purchase.
Taken together, these models allow us to understand the key aspects of the interaction of each client with the company: who and when will be able to attract, how much these clients will spend in the future, etc. The sum of all the estimated expenses of clients will give us a forecast of quarterly revenue. By comparing models, you can much more accurately estimate future revenue streams—and hence the true value of the company.
This basic model is universal and applicable to companies from all industries. But its details will depend on the company’s business model – in particular, whether it is a subscription. In companies with a subscription model (such as fitness centers, telecommunications firms), executives generally know how much money customers will spend in the next month, and can directly observe the churn of customers when they cancel subscriptions and terminate contracts. This makes it easier to build hold and buy models.
Most companies, however, do not use a subscription and, due to the infrequent purchases, cannot see the churn process so clearly. Let’s say if you have an account on Amazon, but you suddenly decide to never use the services of this company again, then no one in Amazon or outside of it will immediately notice this. Marketers call this phenomenon latent churn. To account for it, a more complex model is required, but experts have already learned how to make very accurate forecasts.

Methodology for company valuation and calculation of results
Each company participating in the Russian Employer Rating receives a place in accordance with the final
score.
Participation is free for companies, registration is open to all organizations with a headcount
from 100 people. Such a restriction is necessary because the company must have enough employees to
minimum sample in the study eNPS (Employee Net Promoter Score).
Stage 1
HR survey
HR-specialists undergo a professional survey. Its results will allow us to evaluate the effectiveness
activities of the company’s HR team, its level of development and comparison with competitors
in branch. The data obtained form the basis of the first criterion for assessing the company –
ranking members. The value is between 0 and 100.
The assessment of HR specialists is 20% in the final score of the company participating in the Rating.
Download Sample HR Questionnaire
Stage 2
eNPS Employee Survey
Companies participating in the Rating organize an online survey of their employees.
It allows you to collect an objective opinion of the team about the current employer,
determine the level of loyalty to him and readiness to recommend him as a future
place of work for your loved ones.
Each question requires an answer-score on a scale from 0 to 10. Based on the results
research system classifies each survey participant – according to the most
popular types of ratings: promoters, neutrals or critics.
Employee eNPS survey accounts for 40% of the company’s final score —
ranking members.
Download an example of the eNPS questionnaire
Stage 3
Applicant assessment hh.ru
The assessment of the employer brand of the company participating in the Rating also involves external
respondents are applicants from hh. ru.
Each of them can take the poll and vote for only 3 companies in each
industries that are considered attractive employers. Option available for one user
hh.ru only once to ensure the purity of the results.
Applicants’ score is 40% in the final score of the company participating in the Rating.
Job seeker example
Index calculation
For each company, a normalized value is calculated (X i norms ) for each
indicator. Calculation formula:
X i normal = 1/σ x × (x i –
x cf ) ,
where:
x i is the value of company indicator i,
σ x – standard deviation for the indicator values of all companies,
x avg is the arithmetic mean of the indicator values of all companies.
where:
X 1 i norms is the normalized value of the company indicator
i based on an HR questionnaire,
X 2 i normal is the normalized value of the company’s eNPS index
i,
X 3 i norms is the normalized value of the company indicator
i based on a survey of applicants.
Distribution of places in the Rating
The company’s position in the Rating is determined by the final score, which is made up of 3 independent
ratings:
Its value is the only criterion for ranking companies and determining the place
in the overall Rating and sub-ratings.
Overall ranking by number of companies
The rating is compiled based on the ranking of companies in accordance with the final
score for the organization.
Largest companies
from 5,001 people
Large companies
from 1,001 to 5,000 people
Medium-sized companies
from 251 to 1,000 people
Small companies
from 100 to 250 people
Sub-ratings according to the evaluation criteria
The final position of the company in three independent
assessments: HR questionnaire + eNPS internal assessment + external assessment of candidates.

How to evaluate a company | Blog Irvicon
Company valuation is one of the most complex and science-intensive types of consulting services. The process of determining the value of a business requires economic, legal, technical knowledge, understanding of the specifics of enterprise management, analysis of business processes, etc.
There are standard methods for valuing a company’s assets, but the methodology used in determining the value of a particular business is in most cases individual.
Before moving on to the evaluation methodology, it is necessary to understand the basic principles of evaluation, which are fundamental and guide the entire evaluation process.
Valuation principles
Among the principles on which the assessment of the enterprise is based, the following groups are traditionally distinguished:
Principles based on user perceptions
Utility. An enterprise will have value only if it is able to meet the needs of a potential owner, i.e. useful to its owner.
Substitution. It is assumed that all market participants act in good faith and reasonably, moreover, for a reasonable purchaser, the maximum value of an asset cannot be more than the lowest price among similar objects with the same utility. Also, the cost of creating a similar company from scratch is always calculated.
Expectation. The price of the enterprise will be directly dependent on the income that a potential investor expects to receive from the acquisition.
Principles related to the characteristics of the object of assessment
Residual productivity of the land plot. The main factors of production need to be paid, and it is obvious that capital, labor and managerial forces are paid first. The land is paid according to the residual principle, that is, it has residual productivity. The most significant feature is the location, in fact, it is it that has the greatest influence on residual productivity.
Contribution. Improving or supplementing an object (inclusion of an additional asset in the system) is advisable only if, as a result of this factor, the increase in the total cost will be more than the cost of its acquisition.
Limiting productivity (recoil). As resources are added, the increase in net returns (value increase) first increases faster than the increase in costs, but then the increase in value slows down (in relation to the costs of these resources), until the point where the increase in value is less than the cost of adding resources.
Principles related to the external environment
Conformity. The company must meet the standards that are accepted in the country and the region, the prevailing expectations and requirements of the market, and the traditions of building such facilities in the region.
Addiction. Any company is dependent on a whole range of external factors: from the quality of the nearby road surface to the national composition of the region, political and economic stability in the region where it operates.
Supply and demand. The price of an object is directly determined by the level of supply and demand for similar objects.
Variability. It should be taken into account that all economic processes in the market, as well as in technological development, are mobile. Accordingly, the value of the object of assessment changes over time.
The principle of best and most efficient use.
Based on the results of the analysis of the characteristics of the enterprise, the state of the external environment, various economic factors, the most efficient use of the facility is determined, which will be economically feasible, technically feasible and not legally limited.
Classical Approaches to Valuation
Traditionally, there are three approaches to assessment:
Profitable. The most important when evaluating a company, which is explained by the fact that a potential acquirer of property is primarily focused on the amount of income that they can receive through their investments.
Costly. Evaluation occurs from the position of the volume of costs. The expert calculates the value of absolutely all the assets of the organization separately, after which the total value of the assets is determined, from which the amount of the company’s debt obligations is then subtracted.
Comparative. The appraiser searches the market for an already completed transaction, the subject of which was a company (share / block of shares), which is very similar in characteristics to the one being evaluated, and based on the data on the price of this transaction, determines the value of the company being valued.
In the assessment report, the expert describes the approaches and methods that he used during the assessment, and also characterizes the feasibility of their application.

The middle school program is focused on the development of independence and self advocacy skills. While I do wish the middle school program was more closely monitored for consistency of philosophy from all of the teachers; as one reviewer mentioned, no school is perfect and my issues have in no way impacted the overall education our children are receiving.

Parent: My daughter attends Milken and it has been a wonderful experience for her and our family. First, the students were so welcoming (and so were parents). Second, the opportunities available are immense – so many electives, athletics and the arts that she could try everything she wanted to before committing once she gets to high school. Her teachers are supportive and when we reached out to ask questions, they were very helpful and attentive. The school has been a very stepped up experience from elementary school – more than we could have expected. The senior leadership has vision, and the students benefit from that. We love it!… Read 56 reviews

Alum: This is an incredible private school. I attended public school for two years and then my sister and I were accepted into Wildwood. From second to twelfth grade I had an amazing experience here. There is little diversity due to the massive price tag, so we were two of the few people of color at school. The teachers are not paid enough, but they were so passionate and lovely. I never had a class that was larger than 20 and the teachers gave personalized time to each student. The project-based learning helped me become a great critical thinker and I learned how to make a great presentation! The sports were lacking, but that is because Wildwood is an art/STEM school, not an athletic school. The funding is endless, parents are very involved, and they absolutely prepare students for college. The upper school (6-12) does NOT have a gym/cafeteria/yard etc. It is in West Los Angeles and the facility used to be a warehouse, so there is little natural light in most classrooms….

Parent: My daughter is in 11th grade at Louisville. One of the best decisions ever made. She thrives at this school. THRIVES! She has the best of friends, amazing teachers, fantastic sports and so many opportunities to be involved.
Her sports practices are held at Crespi’s (All Boy School) and she attends Football games. What I love is that she can focus hard on her academics yet still feel like she is a part of a community with boys and girls. It is the perfect combination.
8th Grade visit day sealed and made her decision for her. She instantly felt welcomed and part of a supportive, loving community. Louisville helps to guide and build powerful confident young women. They are prepared for the world!

Class sizes are small enough that you get to have a very personal and supportive relationship with your teachers, as well as all the other students in your class. Socially, there are enough students to be acquaintances with all of them, but still have close friends. The education is amazing too! There is a path for every type of student. If you want to challenge yourself, they offer plenty of AP courses, and if you want to enjoy your high school years more, there are regular courses as well. Finally, sports!

After completing my first year of high school in Honduras, thoughts regarding how welcoming the new environment I would encounter clouded my mind. As a first-generation student entering a traditional US high school, my hopes were that teachers and staff would aim to support me despite obvious academic differences between me and my classmates, the students whom I had difficulty connecting with at first. Nonetheless, my original expectations were completely surpassed once I began having meaningful interactions with the teachers and staff. Not only did they help me realize having a different background is an advantage when it comes to acquiring a unique perspective, but they also helped me embrace and show pride in it.

Parent: We have a family of three and our oldest child is currently a Junior at Crespi. Our experience with the school has been phenomenal for so many reasons. The school culture and focus on how boys learn prompted our interest in the school . When we applied, our experience through that process was so different from other High Schools. It was customized and specific to our son’s needs. Once enrolled, the school focused on his growth and educational trajectory but also on the daily experience. The focus on brotherhood, community and family create an amazing experience for our son. He has developed deep friendships and as a family, we love the parents, teachers and administrators. Our youngest son will also be attending Crespi and our daughter will attend their sister school. We are so fortunate for their hard work during COVID and their efforts to make this time as normal as possible. Finally, the work on getting him to College is fantastic.

Parent: Our child has been at Larchmont since kinder and has thrived. He went to the elementary Fairfax campus, a smaller campus with spacious classrooms, and he has loved the bigger Selma campus too. The leadership works hard to create an accessible and friendly atmosphere for the students and parents so there is a strong sense of community. The admin is collaborative and value parent input. The teachers are nurturing and attentive and know when to give students more help or more of a challenge. There are many enrichment classes (art, music, gardening, sports teams, band), a social-emotional curriculum and clubs. Most kids eat the (optional) lunch prepared in the Fairfax kitchen and is SO good. At Selma, our child has delved deeper into academics and developed new interests like government and digital media in clubs.

Senior: Honestly I think this is one of the most inclusive schools I’ve ever seen. This school has always been the right fit for me because of the activities they offer and council they also have. I was heavily involved in their drama and choir departments and it was the highlight of my high school career. These two activities always gave me something to do during the day and after school and helped me stay involved with things around campus. I would also say that going to Providence helped me shape myself into the person I am today. This came not only from growing but from the help of academic counselors and teachers found within Providence. The one thing I’d like to change about Providence if the fact that we are not a handicap-able school at all. No where in our school is there a ramp for someone with crutches or a wheelchair. We also do not have an elevator, I believe for our school to be even more successful in the future, Providence needs to look into installing those features…. Read 76 reviews

Parent: Our experience at Fairmont has been exceptional. The teachers, staff, and administration are truly invested in my child’s education and her growth as a young learner. Small class sizes and leveled learning have enabled my child to gain confidence in her learning abilities.
Though it is a small and newer school, it allows for a lower student to teacher ratio, giving our kindergartener more confidence when asking questions, engage in group activities, and opportunities for one-on-one time with the teachers. She absolutely LOVES Fairmont!
The administration is open minded and think outside the box to make a successful educational experience for the students and parents. Fairmont is committed to the whole child. They teach value lessons, character building, communication and leadership skills. The teachers are passionate about seeing their students succeed.

Freshman: My experience at King Drew Medical High School has been very good. Even though my first 9th grade year has been on zoom, there good parts about this school that I love. The teachers love the engage with you and do care about how you may be feeling. When you need help, the school lets teachers host office hours. Office hours are teachers giving a separate class after school for any students that need clarification on something or are confused about the lesson that was taught to them. It is very diverse and you get to see many students of different colors and backgrounds. King Drew offers many opportunities . For example, this schools has a Heath Care which gives the students an opportunity to go to MLK Hospital and observe the professionals in person and do fun labs. I do recommend this school for students who would like to be in the doctor field in the future and for students that just wants a positive, hard-working, fun school that has teachers that pushes you to your limit!. ..

I miss my sleep since homework is a lot depending on the classes you get. But when it comes to the bullying policy, they’re very effective and I really appreciate that they care. I used to get bullied because of my stutter, but the situation was handled immediately and didn’t have any process after that, none at all. The sports are limited since we are a small school, but the school spirit is definitely there, especially at basketball games!

By creating a safe environment, and to have a support system to rely on, it really helps us as students know that we can depend on the school to help us with any issue we need. From the end of 2019 to now, there has been big changes to the school, us as students are now able to input our opinion on more things, as to how we feel about schedules, or how we feel about how the school is managing overall. This school is helping me succeed not only to go to a university, but preparing me for beyond…. Read 388 reviews

Senior: My experience at this school was amazing. There is much support and help for students. The school focuses on academics and mental health. They are strongly encouraged to seek out help and have conversations with peers to figure out their troubles. It is an amazing school that is perfect for those in the community. The classes are extremely helpful for students who are very much needed in college. They even offer college courses for students who have an interest in the dual enrollment program. I did college courses my senior year and now I have credits for college! The staff here go beyond their call of duty for their dedication to the student at Animo Pat Brown. They treat everyone equally with no bias for any grading, choosing, etc. The school is small which means students can have a better and personal connections with not only the teachers but their peers as well. The parents are involved with many things like meeting for the students how they can improve in school or at home…. Read 157 reviews

The school primarily does it’s best to urge and prepare students for the life and educational opportunities of college, meanwhile also providing college courses for the students to take and excel as an advantage.

Senior: Cals is a small school so I didn’t experience the high school experience of having field trips, rallies, a senior trip, and more. It is a charter school so they aren’t directly funded by the government which is affected me because we don’t receive the right resources for us. Also, students are way too babied when Cals is supposed to be a “College Prep” by the teachers mostly with this upcoming generation who just rebel because they think it’s “cool”. However, I enjoyed that there is more interaction with the teachers during class and how I was able to take several college classes at school for free. I would’ve preferred for there to be more clubs because it helps for applications and resumes. During my time at this school, I can say that there is much work needed if they want their students to succeed in the real world…. Read 159 reviews

Parent: We have been at Mayfield Junior School for almost 6 years and we are very pleased with the education our children are receiving. The lower school program is amazing. It is a developmentally appropriate program with emphasis on the education of the entire child. Academics along with music, art, athletics, character, and technology are all emphasized and valued. The middle school program is focused on the development of independence and self advocacy skills. While I do wish the middle school program was more closely monitored for consistency of philosophy from all of the teachers; as one reviewer mentioned, no school is perfect and my issues have in no way impacted the overall education our children are receiving. We are confident that when our children complete MJS they will be prepared academically and also prepared to be compassionate, thoughtful, confident members of society. We feel our children are learning life skills that will serve them well for the rest of their lives…. Read 9 reviews

Academics and Curriculum
The Harford County Public School System maintains a reasonably uniform system of education for
its youth, providing educational
experiences and opportunities designed to meet unique student needs. Curriculum in various skill
areas, in the academic disciplines, and in the arts is developed, implemented, evaluated and
revised on a systemwide basis so that each student receives a well-balanced, carefully
articulated,
and appropriately diversified education.
Curriculum provides the organization and structure for that which is to be learned, so that the
instructional and assessment
practices of teachers facilitate student mastery of the essential learnings. In order for
students
to demonstrate the highest levels of mastery of the learnings established by the Harford County
Public School System, the curriculum must be designed, developed, and implemented with the
appropriate
scope, focus, balance, and alignment so that effective direction is given to instructional and
assessment practices.

Beverly Hills: Film Actors and Social Life
Beverly Hills is a glamorous city that does not belong to Los Angeles, but is surrounded on all sides by its districts. Hollywood actors prefer to settle here. Film actors and other celebrities began to come here at the beginning of the 20th century. In particular, the Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninov lived in the mansion on Elm Drive until 1943. In 2014, the creator of the Minecraft computer game Markus Persson bought a house here for $70 million. In the same year, another property, the Palazzo di Amore estate, was put up for sale for 19$5 million, but never sold.
There are over a hundred boutiques in Beverly Hills, including shops on the famous Rodeo Drive. There are many famous five-star restaurants here, including Bouchon, Scarpetta, Spago and Cut. There are good schools in the area, perfect cleanliness is observed. On the territory of residential complexes there are parking lots where you can leave your car for free for one to two hours.
Despite the name (hills in translation from English “hills”), most of the territory of Beverly Hills is a plain. Houses located in the hilly area north of Sunset Boulevard are much more expensive than the average for the city, because of the beautiful views from above.

Bel Air: mansions and the rich

True, the designers did not take into account that there are strong tides in the area, so later some of the canals were filled up.
Since the beginning of the 20th century, Venice has been a bohemian attraction, and there are many artist studios in the town to this day.

Santa Monica: mild climate and athletes

The hottest time in Santa Monica is September. Due to the geography, June is often cloudy and cool here, while Los Angeles itself can be warm and sunny. But breezes from the Pacific Ocean make Santa Monica’s air fresher and cleaner than in the continental regions, and smog is much less common here.
Santa Monica has its own airport, five movie theaters and several museums.

There are three shopping areas: Montana Avenue (Montana Avenue) with chic boutiques and restaurants, Downtown (Downtown) with the pedestrian area Third Street Promenade and Main Street (Main Street) with clothing stores and assorted goods.

On Santa Monica Boulevard, which is the main artery of Western Hollywood, shops with products from Russia and restaurants of Russian cuisine are concentrated. Many Russian speakers, including many Jews, came here after the collapse of the USSR. Most of the 5-6 thousand Russian-speaking Jews living here moved to West Hollywood during two waves of migration – 1978-1979 and 1988-1992.
The main residential areas of West Hollywood are Norma Triangle, West Hollywood North, West Hollywood West, West Hollywood East and West -Hollywood Heights.
West Hollywood is dominated by high-rise apartment complexes, but cottages and bungalows are found from time to time. The median price for mansions, according to Elliman, is $1.585 million, for apartments, $685,000.
Malibu: surfers and students
Malibu is a resort town in western Los Angeles County. This place is suitable for everyone – both families with children and young people. Athletes, celebrities and students settle here (the latter due to the private Pepperdine University located here).
Malibu is famous for its 17 km of six sandy beaches and for being home to Hollywood stars. The Indians called this place “Humaliwo” (Humaliwo), which means “the surf sounds loud.” The modern name of the city came from this word. The motto of the city is “27 miles of scenic beauty” (27 miles of scenic beauty). Malibu offers rich opportunities for sports – kayaking, surfing, yachting, diving, swimming.
“We have a nice, quiet beach town here. And I want him to stay nice and quiet,” the police chief describes Malibu in The Big Lebowski
Malibu has a lot of chic mansions, but the area manages to maintain the coziness of a small town with tiny markets, playgrounds and neat sidewalks. The median price for mansions, according to Elliman, is $2.86 million, for apartments $850,000
Pasadena: roses and ancient buildings
Pasadena is a city within a city where life combines opportunities for entertainment and relaxing holiday. This place is called “a small town pretending to be big. ” Cultural diversity attracts both museum goers and carnival fans. About 11% of Pasadena residents are Armenians. The community has a great influence in the economy, culture and social life of the city.
Pasadena has been a resort destination for East Coast residents since the 19th century. Since 1890, on the first day of every year, the Rose Parade has been held here, attracting hundreds of thousands of tourists.
The landmark of the city is Pasadena City Hall
Thanks to the Metro Gold Line, it is easy to get to downtown Los Angeles from here. Downtown is a 15 minute drive, Disneyland is a 40 minute drive.
There are many early 20th century mansions and beautiful old buildings in downtown Pasadena. Many restaurants, shops and entertainment facilities are concentrated in the Old Town of Pasadena.
The average cost of housing in Pasadena, according to Zillow, is $721.4 thousand

Santa Monica: Mild Climate and Athletes
Santa Monica is a city in the United States, located in western Los Angeles County. Many Hollywood stars and employees of film companies live in this town. Santa Monica is also a mecca for skateboarders and surfers.
The hottest time in Santa Monica is September. Due to its geographic location, it is often cloudy and cool here in June, while it can be warm and sunny in Los Angeles itself. But the breezes from the Pacific Ocean make the Santa Monica air fresher and cleaner than the continental areas, and smog is much less common here than in other places.
The Santa Monica Pier is a famous landmark that has appeared in many movies including Titanic and Forrest Gump
Santa Monica has its own airport, five movie theaters and several museums. More people from the UK and Ireland live here than in the whole of Los Angeles, so there are many British and Irish pubs in the city. There are three shopping areas: Montana Avenue with chic boutiques and restaurants, Downtown with Third Street Promenade, and Main Street with clothing and merchandise stores. All of this, along with easy-to-walk streets, makes Santa Monica one of the best places to live in Los Angeles.
According to Elliman, the median price for Santa Monica mansions is $2.995M and for apartments is $895K. , lifestyle and budget:
Most expensive neighborhoods : Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Brentwood, Pacific Palisades;
Nightlife : Venice, Hollywood, West Hollywood;

20 facts you might not know about the ‘fresh prince of Bel-Air’
Article
top-leaderboard-limit ‘> Fanpop
1.
Will Smith only agreed to do the show because he was heavily indebted to the IRS.
Smith rose to prominence as the rapper of The Fresh Prince, and with that fame came a significant jump in earnings. Unfortunately, Smith didn’t manage his money wisely and didn’t pay enough income taxes, and he owed the government a whopping $2.8 million. The IRS confiscated most of his property, including his income. The Fresh Prince almost filed for bankruptcy – until producer Quincy Jones chose him for a role in a new series, and The Prince of Beverly Hills was born.
2. And he had to pay.
The IRS forced Smith to pay them 70 percent of his salary for the first three seasons.
3. He was almost a complete beginner.
Smith had only one TV series under his belt – a T-shirt salesman on ABC’s post-school specials – when he accepted a role on the show. Fresh Prince , and confused by his earliest appearances on the show. He never had a formal acting education, and in some cases his lack of experience was painfully obvious. “I tried so hard,” he said. “I memorized the script in its entirety, and then stuck to the lines of everyone while they spoke. When I watch these episodes, it’s disgusting. My performances were terrible.”
4. Tyra Banks made her acting debut on the show.
She played Smith’s on-screen girlfriend, Jackie, in an episode of the fourth season.
Is Philadelphia based on real events?
5. The house in the entry is not in Bel Air.
Instead, the house pictured is located in nearby (and equally affluent) Brentwood.
6. Carlton’s dance was inspired by Courteney Cox and Eddie Murphy.
“There was a video of Bruce Springsteen and Courteney Cox called ‘Dancing in the Dark’ and Bruce Springsteen gets her on stage and she’s basically dancing,” said actor Alfonso Ribeiro. And it was also from Eddie Murphy’s “Mad” comedy video where he does the “white man dance.” And I ended up taking those two dances and combining them and making them my own and making them my character. ”
7. Geoffrey had a last name.
The surname of the ever-snarky butler from the Banks family was … Butler. (His middle name was Barbara.)
8. Nicky’s middle names were inspired by Boyz II men.
The audience first met Nicky in the third season, after he was born to Uncle Phil and Aunt Viv. His full name is Nicholas Andrew, Michael Sean, Nathan Vanya Banks. What are the names of the members of Boyz II Men? Michael, Sean, Nathan and Vanya. A four-member R&B group performed at Nicky’s christening in a season four episode.
9. What is a taxi driver?
Many sites (including IMDb) claim that Quincy Jones is driving a taxi with cubes in the mirror. But according to Rashida Jones (Quincy’s daughter) and Jada Pinkett Smith, the credited taxi driver is “absolutely not” a Q. Also, thanks to a car accident at age 14 in which he was a passenger, Jones never learned to drive.
10. Smith met his wife Jada Pinkett Smith while auditioning for the show.
She originally auditioned for the role of Will’s on-screen girlfriend. She didn’t get the role, but that didn’t stop the couple from getting married at 19.97 year.

Will Smith was more than just a sitcom star. He also helped write stories and produced some episodes, including “There’s Nothing Like Show Business” in its third season. In this episode, Will’s friend Keith Campbell, a comedian from Philadelphia, comes to him and looks at the bar so easily that Will decides to pursue a career in comedy.
12. Two different actresses played Aunt Vivian.
Janet Hubert played the character for the first three seasons; Daphne Maxwell Reed played Aunt Vivian for the last three seasons.

13. There were many famous guest stars.
Jay Leno, Queen Latifah and Hugh Hefner were guests on the show.
14. The actors kept a diary.
Earlier this year, Karyn Parsons, who played Hilary Banks, told ABC News about a notebook she kept in a drawer on the kitchen island on set, which she took with her after the show ended. “At times the cameraman or the actors, someone would just write stupid poetry or ‘James gets on my nerves’,” she said. “We made little notes and I took them. I need to get this out, especially now that James has passed away because I know it’s in there. I know what has been written about him.”
15. The show was canceled and returned.
Following the cancellation of NBC’s Fresh Prince , Smith’s character returned to Philadelphia in the season four finale. However, after outrage from fans, NBC decided to bring the show back; its fifth season opens with an NBC executive dragging Smith into a van to take him back to California, saying, “It’s called The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, not The Fresh Prince of Philadelphia. ” The series ended up running for six seasons.
16. The musical theme caused the closure of the school.
In 2013, The Prince of Bel-Air The title song caused the school to close. A secretary from Ambridge Area High School in Pennsylvania called a student to remind him of an upcoming meeting. He didn’t answer and the secretary was directed to the student’s answering machine. In his response message, the student imitated the theme song of the show, and the administrator thought he said “shoot people outside the school” and not “shoot the ball outside the school.” The local police took the student into custody, but he was later released.
17. You probably can’t get the soundtrack.
Would you like to receive the soundtrack on CD Fresh Prince ? You may need to take a plane to the Netherlands to get to it; It was originally only released in Holland, where an extended remix version of the title track reached No. 3 on the singles chart in 1992. The songs are now available for download online via Spotify and elsewhere.
18. The show was parodied.
There are several parodies of the show. Mad TV released an animated Bel Air Fresh Shrimp . Pet Adoption Group produced Bel Air Fresh Puppy .

Nancy Reagan, the widow of former President Ronald Reagan, has died in her own home in Bel Air in Los Angeles. The cause of death was heart failure.
A frame from the Associated Press video.
The death of Nancy Reagan has been confirmed at the Reagan Library. According to the BBC, in 1981-89 she was one of the most influential first ladies in US history.
She will be buried next to her husband at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California.
Nancy Reagan survived her husband by 12 years, who actually died in her arms on June 5, 2004 at her home in Bel Air, Los Angeles, at the age of 93. At the time of his death, Ronald Reagan was ill with pneumonia due to Alzheimer’s disease. Nancy took care of her sick husband for a long time.
Nancy Davis herself was also an actress in the 1940s and 1950s before she married Reagan, also a famous actor.
Nancy Reagan initiated an expensive renovation of the White House and ordered designer dresses worth a million dollars. For this, she was criticized a lot, but then she took root in the minds of Americans in precisely this way.
Nancy Reagan was very ill before her death.

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.
Hoover 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
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. )
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.
Family Stories
Don’t take our word for it. Hear what our families have to say about our amazing center!
As an elementary school teacher, I wanted a place for my infant daughter where she would discover, construct, build, and bond. We have found that place at the Hoover, AL KinderCare. From my first visit as an expecting mother to this day, I feel welcomed, appreciated, heard, and included. KinderCare is not only giving my daughter an unparalleled care experience, but they nurture me too as a parent. I am a better mom and teacher because of my relationship with the professionals at KinderCare.
Mary L. – KinderCare Parent
My granddaughter has been at Hoover Kindercare since the age of 1 and she has had the best experiences and has also learned so much. They are caring, professional, great communication and they are always so friendly that my grandbaby loves going!
They have been diligent about keeping the center clean and sanitized during the Covid situation and I feel very confident about my granddaughter’s safety and health while she’s in Hoover Kindercare. They truly are the best at what they do and so very caring.
Thank you Hoover Kindercare for all you do!

Having sent the child here, we have a fundamentally different picture – there are 15 people in the group, good teachers constantly work with children. The child visits kindergarten with pleasure, being afraid to oversleep in the morning. I recommend to everyone!

Thank you for helping my daughter with speech therapy. After classes with a speech therapist in your kindergarten, my daughter is no longer naughty when she tries (tries) to pronounce complex sounds. Coming home from class, she is proud of the fact that every time she gets better and better at reading uncomfortable letters. He says he loves working with you. Isn’t that the most important thing for parents?

Description:
My program is a small, mixed-age group, and we all become very attached to each other–it really is very much like a family. I am located in Boston, close to the Longwood Medical Area. I have a well-equippedhome with three levels of interesting space and a small backyard. We also have a wagon-for-six for trips around the neighborhood, and a minivan filled with car seats (and with a triple stroller folded up in back) for field trips to the zoo, the science museum, and other cool places around Boston. The mixed-age grouping contributes to a cooperative rather than a competitive environment–it’s the norm to have a different skill level, since children are different ages, and your friends will just naturally offer to help if you don’t know how to do something.
The curriculum is child-centered and play-based, by which I mean that I guide activities mostly by preparing the environment and selecting the playthings. Then I let the children engage in play and discovery. I’m here to model appropriate behavior, set limits, read books, add or subtract materials, keep everybody clean, fed, safe, and loved, and generally keep things moving smoothly. We have a wonderful time!
I have three major goals for the children in my group: positive self-concept, social skills, and language skills. If you are confident and excited about your world and your ideas, know how to make and keep friends, and communicate well, you are well on your way to academic and personal success.
I am licensed for six children, but prefer to have a group of four or five per day, depending on the ages of the children. I sometimes do have six children, when alumni come to visit or when I simply can’t work out the schedule any other way. Children typically start the program at age one and continue until age four or five.
I try to provide everything so that parents don’t have to pack a huge bag each day. Food, diapers, and field trip expenses are all included in the daily rate–there are no extra charges. I serve a ovo-lacto vegetarian menu. There are lots of pets–turtle, geckos, fish–which provide a wonderful anchor for the science curriculum, since they all need different food and different environments. We also do things like hatching chicken eggs, planting seeds, making collections of pine cones and other natural objects. A dog and two cats live in the house, and petting and playing with them contribute a lot of comfort and interest….

Recent Review:
Our daughter attended Tartts for almost one year and we all absolutely loved it. We were sad to say goodbye to all of her teachers, the staff, and her friends, but the location was no longer convenient for us,as we moved to the suburbs from Boston. Our daughter adjusted fairly quickly to attending Tartts 3x a week; she was 12 months when she started, and had previously been at home with me (her mom). They did a great job making her (and her parents) feel comfortable while she adapted to her new routine at the beginning. Her teachers were amazing – so caring and thoughtful. Knowing our child was at Tartts was a great peace of mind – we knew she was incredibly safe and in the most capable, loving hands. Her teachers and the staff were very good about keeping parents updated throughout the day with photos in the Procare app, and we always looked forward to the end-of-day report, which summarized her day and the activities she participated in, along with the diaper changes and naptime length. We cannot recommend Tartts enough!…

Our Music curriculum is designed around a composition of international songs, including classical, folk and children’s songs. Musical concepts incorporated include: rhythm, pitch, form, dynamics, notation and harmony. The ear training involves singing and rhythmic training directly related to the pieces being taught.
Classes include: Developing piano techniques, strengthening dexterity and reinforcing ear training. Children are encouraged to freely explore the keyboard and are guided into improvising, or to creating a composition.

I have worked within the educational system for 18 years. I began in early childhood education, it is my passion, and I have always wanted to return to my roots.
My working career began in travel and tourism. I then transferred to health care as a Facilitator and Coordinator at Dana Farber Cancer Institute. My career then took me to banking in the Commercial Lending Division at Fleet and Sovereign Bank, now (Santander). During this time period I decided to enter the teaching profession so that I could spend more time with my children, go on longer vacations, and have a similar schedule.
I have been an educator for 18 years. I first began as a 5th Grade resource teacher and then became a kindergarten teacher / resource kindergarten teacher.
I was also a Family Community Field Coordinator for Boston Public Schools. Family involvement and family engagement are important for the development of children. I also incorporate a variety of cultures by having food , cultural days, and reading various books from around the world. I encourage families to get involved through participation.

I have been working with young children since my teen years. I have taught and coached swimming and other sports as well as been a day camp counselor and classroom assistant. Upon completing my undergrad I started my teaching career in the Boston Public Schools as a teacher of young children with autism in 2002. After teaching that class for four years I moved on to teaching K1 for four years. At the conclusion of those four years, our school model was shifting to the inclusion model and I began teaching a K0/K1 full-day inclusion program. This is the class I taught until the end of the 2018/2019 school year. Something I loved about my job was watching kids grow over not only our time together but watching them through their elementary school career. Getting to know the kids and families in our school community was something I looked forward to every year! I’m thrilled that this is something I can look forward to as children age in and out of my daycare program. I love having a small group in my home where there is more time for free play, art, exploration, sensory activities as well as social and emotional learning.

From a young age, I helped to care for the younger children in my family and neighborhood. Child care really became a passion for me—my heart belongs to kids.
When I had my son and started looking for child care for him, I was so discouraged by what I found. None of the programs felt like the quality of care I would provide. I realized this was a wonderful opportunity to create my own program. Through Aiden’s Little Munchkins Home Daycare, I am able to offer local families the high quality, convenient child care I believe all children deserve.

A home daycare is like a family, and my journey to becoming a daycare provider began with family too. While helping at my aunt’s child care center in the Dominican Republic I quickly discovered that taking care of little ones is my passion, a passion that has led me to my own home daycare program! I treat every child like my own, my daycare is very welcoming, and I try to build connections between families, starting with a celebration where they are able to meet and get to know each other. These kinds of connections are so important and what I do is so rewarding, especially when families tell me about the positive impact I have made in their lives.

Every child that walks through my door is unique. In my small home daycare, I can take the time to really get to know what interests a child and what I can do to make them feel loved and make learning fun. Discovering the different personalities of each child and how they learn is so much fun! As a new mother, it just amazed me how much my children absorbed in the pre-school years – they are truly little sponges, soaking up information at every turn. It’s so rewarding to see the children in my daycare do this too, and to be part of those special ‘I got it!’ moments. I am always amazed by how much the children progress and grow after even just a few months in my home.

Children inspire playfulness and hope for the future. You can’t help but love them! Is there anything more rewarding than helping a child in need of guidance? Every experience, every story, every song feels new to them, and that makes every day exciting. But for them to be able to be the best versions of themselves, they need a safe environment. After raising children of my own, I realized that nurturing the next generation is what I was born to do. A passion for caregiving and working with children also runs in my family.

I especially love to take children outside to explore and play, but the truth is that so many parts of the day and the week bring me a lot of joy. Through it all, I focus on exploration and imagination.
One of the best parts of working with children is watching them explore and discover. The work is incredibly rewarding, especially when I think about how I’ve prepared children for pre-K. It’s such a gift to guide the children in my program as they grow.

I started working with children as a teacher in a home-based daycare 16 years ago, and I have been caring for children ever since. Opening my own child care program in my home gave me the opportunity to create the welcoming, nurturing environment that I think is so important. I especially love to sing and dance with them, but the truth is that so many parts of the day and the week bring me a lot of joy. Through it all, I focus on giving children personalized attention.

Special Needs Experience
Daycare programs support parents and families, and that is so important!! When my own kids were young I felt called to help others in my community – and caring for their children seemed like the best way to do that. When I started out in 1994, I had no idea how much I would love working with kids everyday – or that I’d still be running my own program almost thirty years later! In that time, I also raised my own three kids and now have five grandkids. Caring for kids is just what I was meant to do, and it brings so much joy and meaning to my life.

Working with children is so heartwarming because they encourage community. When children feel safe and supported, they can be so beautifully social and welcoming. At this age, they are learning how to make new friends and starting to make connections. Through play time, it’s incredible to see what they come up with together. Lunch is also a great opportunity for them to come out of their shells and get to know one another. A good day here is one full of laughter and good conversations.

All children are special and deserve to have a safe and happy place to spend their days. In my home, children are loved and cared for, and I am here to help and support families. When my daughter was very young, we began looking for a daycare for her and became so discouraged – there weren’t any that met our expectations! This is when I decided to start my own program – a home daycare that parents could feel good about and where children would get lots of love and attention. And that’s exactly what I am still doing every day. I love being able to offer this kind of care to the families in my community.

Play-Based Learning
Children learn best from each other, even just when they are playing! I work hard to create a good balance of social time, play, and learning. Having my own home daycare means spending time with all types of children with different personalities and ways of learning. It is a challenge for me to get to know what makes each unique child tick and to figure out the best way to teach them, and this challenge is really what makes me excited for each day. As a mother myself, I know what it is like to be a caregiver at home, and that helps me be even better at what I do.

Ms. Marian
Play-Based Learning
I’ve always loved children. I have a huge family, so ever since I was young, I’ve been taking care of children. If I didn’t have my own family child care program, I’d likely be babysitting for one of my family members! I’ve worked in foster care, as a nanny, and in children’s ministry at my church. I truly feel that child care is my calling. Children are the future, and they’re such interesting little people. I love their honesty and their ability to bring joy every day. I have so much love for them and enjoy seeing them grow. I opened my own family child care program when my son was young, because I loved child care, I wanted to be home with my son, and I wanted him to have play partners. I’m glad I opened it because it’s been such a fun journey so far.

My favorite thing about caring for children is that they start to show you their little personalities. That has been a highlight for me throughout my 5 years of experience working with young kids. I’m a mom and most recently I have been running my own program.
People have said that I create an environment that is friendly and comfortable. I focus on children’s wellbeing, and I especially love to watch them express themselves. I’m proud when I think about all the children I’ve helped grow and learn. That’s what makes this work so special.

Ms. Cindy
Play-Based Learning
I grew up teaching in my church from children, junior’s, youth ministry, and seniors. As I got older and had my daughter, I began helping out and working at my relatives’ family child care programs. Three people in my immediate family have programs of their own, so I felt encouraged to start one myself! It allowed me the flexibility I wanted and the ability to be home with my daughter. This coupled with the fact that my background was in teaching early age children, it was a perfect fit. When I decided to start my program, I also pursued a degree in Early Childhood Education so that I would be able to better meet the needs of the children. I knew there was something special in the smaller group setting of family child care and it’s been great so far. Especially because my favorite part of working with children is seeing that little lightbulb go off in their minds when they learn something new. This is what drives me to flexible, restructure my own thinking and teaching styles to fit each individual child. Each child challenges me to continually learn and think, how can I help this child today based on their abilities, skills, and learning style?

Early Intervention Expertise
These are the days when the children are finding themselves, figuring out who they want to be, and discovering what interests them. Even at this young age, you can see their personalities emerging. The interactions that they have every day really matter. They’re learning how to make friends and how to take in the world. It’s such a special time in their lives, and it’s an honor to be with them at such a formative stage.

Every child is unique, and I love seeing their personalities unfold! I began to imagine having my own program while working as the director of a daycare center. I wanted to create a safe, happy place for kids to spend their days – and in 2005, I made that happen! In my home, kids have space to use their imaginations, be creative, and learn through play. Getting to know each child in my program is so special, and I can always see what they will be like as grown ups! I love knowing that I have a part in guiding them during these important early years.

Ms. Nakia
Montessori Approach
I’m Nakia Reyes, born and raised in Greater-Boston. Since I was a young girl, I’ve dreamed and prepared to open a school. As a little one in foster care, I naturally fell into a motherly, yet collaborative role of helping my younger foster sibling learn about the world around them and how to move through it. Encouraged by my foster mother, who was a natural teacher and encouraged independence, I knew by age 10 that I wanted to be a teacher and open my own school. Now, 25+ years later, I’ve taken my years of education, New England Montessori Teacher Education Center training, and experience in a variety of roles in schools throughout Boston to bring the holistic Montessori educational experience to children in the Dorchester and surrounding neighborhoods.
I love everything about children. I enjoy talking with them about what they’re experiencing and listening to the funny things they say. I also appreciate how honest they are. My favorite part of working with children is navigating life with them and learning who each child is as an individual. My favorite activities to do with the kids are anything that involves a smock. Long-term messy projects are the best – anything that gets the sensory skills of the kids working and growing. These types of activities with the Montessori teaching method help me connect with the children and dive deeper into their learning.

Home daycare programs are a great first step in a child’s life outside the home, and I’m so happy to be able to use my training and experience to start young kids off on the right foot! I worked as a personal care attendant with children on the autism spectrum, have a degree in psychology and a certification in art therapy, and have two kids of my own – and all along my journey had the dream of opening my own home daycare. What I love most about what I do is that I get to help children learn and move forward in their development every day. There is nothing more rewarding than that!

Children learn best when they are having fun. Planning exciting activities that I know kids will love and learn from is a real passion for me. Every child is so unique, and I offer many different types of activities that vary from week to week. There is always something to get excited about and dive into in my program! Arts & crafts, reading, and singing and dancing all bring joy to the children’s hearts and to mine. I’ve wanted to be a teacher from a young age – my first ‘students’ were my sisters, in a classroom I would set up for them in our home after school. Little did I know how much practice I was getting for my future career!

Children greet the day with such good energy and unconditional love. They are excited to learn, and it’s been a lifelong joy to teach them and be a part of their growth. When they hear a story for the first time, it’s like you’ve opened a door into a whole new world for them. When they make a piece of art they’re really proud of, it’s like they’ve figured out how to create a world of their own. (My favorite part of the day is watching the kids light up when they try new foods!) Through a child’s eyes, everything is exciting and magical. It’s incredible to be able to help fuel their imagination and to make sure their bodies are getting everything they need.

Parenting can be challenging, and a daycare provider should help lighten the load for the families who attend! My program began when I was looking for a place to send my own children. I had so much difficulty finding a place that felt safe and right for them, and it was such a stressful experience! This is when I decided to start a program of my own in my home, so that I could offer an amazing standard of care to them and to other children at the same time. I am proud to provide this type of safe and loving space in my community, a space where children come to learn and grow.

Children are at the heart of every community. They are so caring and open to new friends, and that warmth and generosity is so nice to be around. Every child also comes with their own community. They have a family and friends and other mentors who really care about them. If we all work together, we are capable of creating a safe and happy environment for our kids. I was inspired to start my own daycare after watching my mother run hers for 25 years. A love of caring for others runs in the family, and it’s a passion I look forward to passing on to future generations.

Every child is different, and it’s always such a joy to get to know them on an individual basis. Even at this young age, their personalities really start to shine through. It’s my job to help facilitate their growth and guide them. I’ve worked at daycares and as an educator, and it’s a responsibility I take very seriously. Of course, every child has their own needs and brings something unique to the table, and that’s what keeps this work so interesting. The connections I form with the kids (and that they form with each other!) are so special.

Sometimes people treat kids like blank slates, but I really believe they have their own personalities and passions, and it’s a joy to help them figure out what those are. In the right environment, kids can really thrive. Young children are so generous with their trust, their attention, and their goodwill, and every child deserves a caretaker who is going to mirror that back to them. As a parent myself, I’m a firm believer that children shouldn’t be punished, but they should be redirected. With a little guidance and patience, they can really accomplish anything.

All young children have so much potential. Figuring out what each individual needs from their education and caregiver to untap that potential is like a puzzle, and it keeps every day different and engaging. Looking after kids is a lifelong passion of mine. It comes very naturally, because growing up, I would always help take care of my younger siblings. One of my sisters is actually severely dyslexic and struggled at school. Once I stepped in as her tutor, we spent a lot of time together getting her schoolwork done. Our one-on-one sessions were a fun way to learn that took away some of the pressure and frustrations that come from having a learning disability. It was inspiring to see her progress. Children who come to my daycare will find this same patience, understanding, and dedication to their education.

Working in childcare is so special! As someone who worked as a pediatric dental assistant, I know just how to make kids feel comfortable and cared for.

Owning my own daycare is a path I feel I was meant for – many of my family members are daycare owners, and I truly love watching the kids grow and teaching them new things.

Let’s find a really good daycare for you
Get your own recommendations based on your preferences, daily routine, and what matters most to you.
Your family is unique to you, but some of your questions might not be. 😉 Here’s what most parents want to know when starting out.
What is NeighborSchools?
Hey there, nice to meet you 👋 We’re a new-ish startup that helps new-ish parents find daycare.
We know how hard finding good child care can be – especially for first-time parents. But really good care is what gives you the peace of mind to go back to work and feel confident that your child is getting the stimulation, socialization, and support they need to learn and grow.
So we created NeighborSchools to make this piece of parenthood a whole lot easier. We say “easier” because, let’s be honest, it’s still a big thing to figure out, but working together we can help you find some good options, understand the whole process, and choose a program you’ll feel really good about.
How’s it work?
Most first-time parents don’t know exactly what they’re looking for, so we created a simple survey that will ask you questions about your lifestyle, your daily routines, and your preferences for child care. We’ll then share 3 personalized recommendations that we think might be a good fit. We’ll also give you a timeline that maps out when we would suggest you start touring programs, choose a daycare, and pay a deposit to secure a spot. Your timeline is based on when you want to start care – so you set the pace, and you decide when you’ve found the right match.
Is there a cost?
Nope. Our daycare recommendation service is free for parents. The other half of our business is helping these small-scale daycares with software and services that handle all their administrative tasks, like online contracting, payment processing, and licensing requirements. Before NeighborSchools, services like these were only designed for large corporate child care centers, and part of our mission is to level the playing field for small, independent child care programs. That’s why we picked the name NeighborSchools – we’re all about making child care more personal, more human, and more equitable for the incredible individuals who do this work and care for our children.
How do I know if I’m ready to take the survey?
Generally, if you’re here, you’re ready. The survey lets us give you 3 recommendations to consider, but it’ll also help you better understand what factors to consider, and what questions to be asking right now. It’s simple things like where you live, your child’s date of birth, when you want to start care, and if you have any preferences around program philosophy or language of instruction. If you’re planning 6+ months ahead, it’s a great way to get started, and if you’re hoping to start daycare in the next 2-4 months, it’s definitely time to get started. Click here to start the survey.
How do I know if a daycare has openings?
Each program has a limited number of spots for each age range, so we need to know your schedule and child’s age before we can share availability. The survey covers these basics, as well as factors like drop-off and pick-up times to make sure that recommended programs fit your daily routine. Once we know your child’s age and schedule we can share rates and costs as well.
More questions? Text or email – we’re here to help.
We’re online Monday – Friday from 8am to 6pm Eastern.

Daycare Centers
What they are: Standalone facilities that typically offer 9 a. m.-to-5 p.m. childcare and a play-based learning curriculum from licensed, private providers who often have some level of experience with early-childhood education.
Average cost: Daycare programs run around $21,000 a year for infants and $15,000 a year for four-year-olds—making Massachusetts the most expensive state for childcare.
Who they’re good for: Families in need of childcare during typical weekday work hours.
Nannies
What they are: Experienced—though not necessarily licensed—childcare providers who offer long-term, part- or full-time care for children in their home. They may also take on general housekeeping responsibilities.
Average cost: Often the costliest childcare option, nannies run an average of $20 an hour in the Bay State depending on their level of experience and responsibilities.
Who they’re good for: Caregivers with unpredictable schedules looking for personalized childcare and help with things around the house.
Family Childcare Programs
What they are: Also known as in-home daycares, these smaller-scale programs operate out of a provider’s home. Massachusetts’ Department of Early Education and Care requires that in-home providers be licensed by the state, and allows them to supervise up to 10 children at a time if certain age and assistant requirements are met.
Average cost: More affordable than daycare facilities, in-home daycare programs in Massachusetts average $13,000 a year for infants and $12,000 a year for four-year-olds.
Who they’re good for: Households looking for flexible childcare options close to home, or parents who feel more comfortable with a lower child-to-provider ratio than at traditional daycare facilities.
Au pairs
What they are: Young, live-in nannies from countries around the world who provide childcare and cultural enrichment for children in exchange for room, board, and a weekly stipend. Au pair and host-family relationships are typically facilitated by an agency.
Average cost: In Massachusetts, au pairs are entitled to the greater of either the state minimum wage of $13.50 for up to 40 hours a week (above which families must pay time-and-a-half for care) or the minimum federal stipend of $195.75 a week, with a maximum deduction capped at $42 for meals and $35 for lodging. That’s not to mention typical au pair agency fees—at Cultural Care Au Pair agency, program and matching costs start at around $9,000, an industry average.
Who they’re good for: Families who are interested in exposing their child to a foreign language or culture and are comfortable warmly embracing the au pair as a new member of the family.
How to Choose the Right Daycare
Before you drop off your tyke on the first day away from home, you’ll want to ask these four questions.
How do you communicate with parents?
Whether you prefer a daily update on everything from potty training to playtime or a weekly overview, “make sure that the level of communication [offered] is comfortable for you as a parent,” says Laura Perille, CEO of the Boston-based childcare provider Nurtury. You also want to know that the center has very clear policies, Perille notes, in case of an emergency.
What does the daily schedule look like?
Depending on your child’s age, there should be scheduled times for eating, getting outside, and resting every day, says Ayesha Cammaerts, senior manager of community programs at Boston Children’s Hospital. But while structure is important, there should also be room in the daycare’s routine for individual flexibility, especially for younger children.
Can I see the physical space?
Because your child’s health and safety at daycare is a top priority, Cammaerts recommends touring the space in person to ensure the facility has ample natural light indoors, safe entry and exit points, and separate spaces for big and little kids. And while daily outdoor time is important, secure al fresco spaces can be hard to come by in the city. “If [children] have to go to an offsite space for outside activity, make sure that the route to that space is safe,” Cammaerts says, and that the daycare has strollers and other equipment for transportation.
How will you handle my child’s tougher moments?
From temper tantrums to arguments about Goldfish, it’s helpful to have a discussion with the people in charge about how they will support your little one when he or she struggles. Perille says to listen for words like “positive behavioral support” and “appropriate behavior reinforcement,” as opposed to discussions about “discipline.”

Krasnoyarsk teacher leaves for an internship in Boston
Tatyana Sopinskaya, teacher-defectologist of kindergarten No. 194, leaves for an internship in Boston next week. She will adopt the experience of specialists from one of the oldest educational institutions in the world – Perkins International Academy. Here they teach children with disabilities and at the same time conduct educational courses for teachers from around the world who work with such children.
The internship is designed for the entire academic year, Tatyana Valerievna will return to Krasnoyarsk only at the end of May. She admits that the invitation to Boston came as a surprise to her. The trip is organized by the foundation for the support of the deaf-blind “Connection”.
Interestingly, initially Tatyana Sopinskaya did not plan to work with kids, and even more so with children with disabilities. But circumstances brought her to work in a kindergarten. And, as it turned out, not in vain.
— I am a chemistry teacher by education. She graduated from the Krasnoyarsk Pedagogical University, then for five years she taught at a vocational school, worked with students. In the mid-2000s, there were much fewer students, apparently, this is a consequence of the demographic failure 1990s. The workload decreased, as did the salary, as a result, I left the school.
Tried to find a job in other areas, but nothing happened. I returned to education, and, apparently, not in vain. At first I worked in an ordinary kindergarten, then a familiar teacher invited me here. And I agreed.
Our kindergarten is a combined institution, we have groups for children with speech impairments, for children with hearing impairments.
— Was it not scary to change direction, because working with such children is a special responsibility?
— No, I am not afraid of responsibility, as well as difficult work. She worked as an educator in a speech group, at the same time she studied in absentia in a master’s program: she took a course in general defectology on the basis of a pedagogical university. And when the place of a defectologist in the group for deaf children was vacated, she began to work here.
I also underwent professional retraining as a teacher of the deaf. Since I started working with the foundation, I have been constantly learning.
Acquaintance with the “Connection” took place thanks to Olga Leonidovna Belyaeva, head of the department of correctional pedagogy of the Krasnoyarsk Pedagogical University. This fund works with many regions of the country, is engaged in education, accompaniment of deaf-blind people – children and adults. The Foundation invited me to study in Moscow, St. Petersburg, now I am not the only teacher from Krasnoyarsk who cooperates with him.
Classes in St. Petersburg were conducted by invited teachers from Ireland and Spain, who had already trained in Boston.
— When working with children with disabilities, are the educational approaches in these countries very different from those in Russia?
— It’s not about approaches, they are just similar. Teachers from these countries differ in consciousness, they think differently. It is difficult for me to explain their perception, for them people with disabilities, and children in particular, are not outcasts of society, but an equal part of it. In our country, only attempts to get rid of existing stereotypes are visible so far. They probably just have a different mentality, different traditions, habits… Experts often told us: “We are trying to turn your mind around.”
In addition to visiting classes, the Foundation provides online courses. And recently the phone rang, the representative of the “Connection” asked: “Tatiana, how is your English?” That’s how I learned about the invitation to Boston.
— How is your English?
– This is the worst thing for me. But now I am learning the language intensively. I was warned that the main thing is to understand the basic words, phrases, and more advanced English classes will also be organized during the internship.
— How does the family feel about the upcoming long separation?
— Of course, my daughter was upset at first. But now we joke with her on this topic. My daughter moved to the eleventh grade, this year she will live with her grandmother. I am very grateful to the head of our garden, Olga Gennadievna Davydova, for letting me go to study in Moscow and St. Petersburg and is now letting me go to Boston for such a long time.
— Do you already know what you will do during the internship?
— We were invited to one of the oldest educational institutions in the world, which teaches deaf-blind children, children with multiple disabilities. These are children with very difficult diagnoses, of different ages: children are accompanied here almost from birth to adulthood. I do not know the details of the internship yet. They promised that for some time we would just observe, discuss what we saw, and then we would get to work.
— How popular is your garden?
– Very in demand, it is always fully equipped. It is attended by children with a wide variety of hearing impairments: deaf, hard of hearing, children with cochlear implants – now the installation of such devices is quite common. The difficulty is that almost all have combined defects. For example, a child does not hear well, plus he has impaired vision, does not hear, and he has impaired intelligence or problems with the musculoskeletal system. Variations may vary.
There are eleven children in my group, aged three to seven. They are all different, it is difficult to organize them into groups. In principle, work in such groups is fundamentally different from what happens in general developmental kindergartens. A simple example. In an ordinary garden, the teacher says: “Guys, today we will draw. Sit down at the table, take out your pencils.” This does not work with deaf children. Even babies with cochlear implants seem to hear speech for the first time after surgery, but do not understand anything. For them, speech is like Chinese for us. Or how English is for me now: I understand only certain words.
We teach children to hear, distinguish sounds, words, understand, speak. This is what ordinary children learn on their own. But our kids can’t handle it on their own.
— How do you measure the effectiveness of your work?
— The biggest progress is when a child who comes to us as a baby who cannot speak goes to the first grade in a regular school.
— How difficult is it to work with parents of children with health problems?
— Working with moms and dads is much more difficult than working with children. These parents live in constant stress, for some reason they got such a child. Someone is overly anxious, someone seeks to keep everything under total control . .. Everyone has their own requests, their own story.
Over time, parents also adapt. At first they worry: how they will give the child to us. Then they get acquainted with the team, see that the children are fine here, notice the speech progress and calm down. By the way, if we talk about progress in development, a lot depends on the family. If they just took them home and do not work with the baby – one result, if they fulfill the tasks of the teacher – another.
— Do you give homework?
– Yes, and this also makes our garden different from others. The assignments are not that difficult. For example, learn words. Walk with the baby down the street, constantly say: “This is a house. This is a big house, and this is a small one.” And so on.
— Do families follow your recommendations?
— Of course, we see it right away. Just like we see who drew the picture: mom or baby.
— You said that it is important to change the consciousness of society in relation to people with disabilities. In your opinion, how should this be done?
— We have speech groups that do not yet have deaf children, but there are those that are attended by children with hearing impairments, children with cochlear implants, and the rest of the children treat them as equals. But when we even just go into a speech group with a child with an implant, the rest start pointing fingers at him, asking questions: “What is in his ear? Why is he mumbling, not understanding anything?”
The same is with our society. Anyone who has not encountered such people points his finger, does not understand and does not accept. Our garden is currently closed for renovations. The mother of one of the girls writes: “I wish you would open up, we can’t go out. Other kids don’t want to play with my daughter.” Although she is a very good girl, she has a wonderful family.
We need to constantly talk about people with disabilities, make sure that they do not hesitate to take to the streets. You can not think that they can get something from them. Unfortunately, we still believe that cancer is contagious.

Boston Parks – Boston Common and Community Garden
During 6 months in the USA I visited more than 10 states and about 25 cities, but Boston, with its unique atmosphere, magnificent views, beautiful bridges and green parks, remains my favorite place where I would return again and again. Speaking of parks in Boston, first of all, it is worth mentioning such an amazing phenomenon as Emerald Necklace (Emerald Necklace) – an 11 km long chain of green areas and parks, designed by American designer Frederick Law Olmsted in the second half of the 19th century. The chain originates in the Boston Common Park and extends to Franklin Park, thus covering 10 of the most beautiful park areas in the city.
In this article I would like to talk about the two main and most famous parks in the city.
Boston Common Park (Boston Common Park)
History and description
So, we start with the Boston Common. America’s oldest urban park is one of the most visited places in Boston. Its area is more than 50 acres. The first mention refers to 1634, when this area was used for pasture, and later for public executions by hanging. Since 1830, the Boston Common has become a public park, instead of cattle walking and executions, city celebrations and performances began to be held here. Today it is a place for friendly and family meetings, walks, various events, concerts, protests and even ice skating.
Features and Attractions
The park is really big and beautiful. I was impressed by both its nature – lawn, flowers, plants, pedestrian and bicycle paths, a small pond, and architecture – fountains, playgrounds, a wide variety of sculptures telling about the history of the country and the city, an atmospheric American cemetery (for those who have not yet familiar with American cemeteries, I can say that they do not cause unpleasant emotions and negativity at all).
If you are as serious about your trip as I am, I advise you to first look at Boston Common Visitor Center (Boston Common Visitor Center) , where you can find all the information you need about park tours, buy a map, etc. d. It is located at the very beginning of the Freedom Trail, the nearest stop is Tremont St opp Temple Pl.
Memorial to Robert Gould Shaw and the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry Regiment
Located between Beacon Street and Park Street. From here it is more convenient to start your walk if you are moving from the north, past the Massachusetts State Capitol). The stop is called – Beacon St @ Park St. The monument is notable for being the first regular military unit in US history, a volunteer infantry regiment that fought in the Civil War and consisted entirely of African Americans, with the exception of officers.
Soldiers and Sailors Monument
Located almost in the middle of the park, it was built according to the project of the Millmore brothers in 1877 in memory of the soldiers who died during the American Revolutionary War. The woman at the top of the monument symbolizes America. On her head is a crown with 13 stars, in her right hand is a wreath and a sword, and in her left is the US flag. There are 4 bronze plaques along the perimeter, which symbolize the departure of a soldier to war, the provision of medical care, the collision of federal forces with the battleship Virginia and the return from the war, respectively.
Parkman Bandstand
A monument dedicated to a benefactor who donated $5 million to park conservation in Boston. The bandstand was built in 1912 for the performance of the orchestra. Today it is a place for holding rallies, political actions, and a stage where free performances are held annually. By the way, in 2007, Barack Obama spoke here during the presidential primaries.
In addition, in the park you will find a fountain Brewer Fountain , Church Memorial , children’s playground Tadpole Playground , baseball field, tennis court and even the ancient cemetery Central Burying Ground .
How to get there
There are a lot of entrances and exits, so I’ll attach a map. I still advise you to start your walk from the Visitor Center ( nearest stop is Tremont St opp Temple Pl, buses number 15, 39, 43, 55, 57, 195 ).
One ride on the subway (and almost all public transport) costs $2.75. If you are in Boston for 5-7 days, I advise you to purchase an unlimited pass for allotment – $ 21.25 (applies to the subway, buses, trolleybuses, suburban train route 1A).
For comparison, a taxi in the city will cost an average of $20-25. There is also a social taxi Uber, it is cheaper by $5-10, but to order it, you need to register on the official website with a local phone number.
If you travel by car, you can find paid parking lots around the park. The closest and most convenient location is the Boston Common Garage, located right on Charles Street. Rates:
0-1 hour: $12.
1-2 hours: $18.
2-3 hours: $24.
3-10 hours: $28.
10-24 hours: $32.
I’ll attach a Boston subway map just in case. Our stops are marked with red circles.
Boylston st and Park st are exit stops for the Boston Common. Arlington st is the exit stop for Boston Public Garden (next park in this article).
Opening hours : Daily from 7:00 to 21:00.
Admission: Free.
Boston Public Garden (Public Garden)
History and description do not pass by another. It began to be built in the 19th century on a 24-acre embankment of the Back Bay. By 1859year, the first public botanical garden of the United States is finally formed on the territory of the park (hence the name of the park). Now about 125 species of trees grow here; in the warm season, flowers are planted from city greenhouses. Everything is very beautiful and green, one feast for the eyes.
Features and attractions
This park is slightly different from the previous one, it is more landscaped, there are rules (for example, you can not ride a bike, play golf, swim), as well as various attractions for tourists, about which further will be discussed.
George Washington Statue
At the entrance to the park, we are greeted by a large statue of George Washington on horseback, a famous Revolutionary War general and the first president of the United States. The monument was made in 1869 by one of the best sculptors in America, Thomas Ball, and is now the most photographed attraction in the park. By the way, it is from here that one of the longest streets of the city originates – Communuelt Avenue (I advise you to go to it after visiting the park, there you will find another favorite place for tourists – a good Commonwealth Avenue Mall).
Ether Monument
Not far from the statue of George Washington is a monument to ether. It symbolizes the first successful use of ether as an anesthetic at the Massachusetts General Hospital in 1846 and recalls the horrors of surgery before the use of ether, when minor things like pulling a tooth or fixing a broken arm caused almost unbearable pain. The monument depicts an old man, but this, it turns out, is not a doctor, but a good Samaritan calming a child.
Make Way for Ducklings
The park’s most famous attraction and one of Boston’s top attractions is Make Way for Ducklings! – located between Beacon Street and Charles Street. The monument symbolizes the heroes of the book of the same name by Robert McCloskey “Make Way for the Ducklings”: Mrs. Mallard the duck and her ducklings, who came to the garden from the Charles River. Very nice sculpture.
Swan Boats
Another great tourist attraction is Swan Boats. Local residents claim that there are no analogues to these boats anywhere in the world and even consider swans one of the symbols of the city. 20 people fit in one boat, the walk takes about 15 minutes, and this entertainment costs absolutely symbolic money:
standard adult $2.75;
for pensioners (after 62 years old) – $ 2,
children (from 2 to 15 years old) – $ 1.5;
children under 2 years old – free of charge.
Of course, these are just some of the attractions of the park. Moving along Boylston Street, you will find many more monuments telling about the history of the United States.
How to get there
The park is located between Beacon Street, Arlington Street and Boylston Street, Charles Street separates it from the Boston Common. By Underground: Take the Green Line to Arlington Station, Lines B, C, D, E. Landmark: Located near the State Capitol.
Opening hours: Daily from 7:00 to 21:00.
Admission: Free.
Boston, USA – all about the city with photos and videos 95th – the first American labor union is organized, and in 1897 the first subway in the country was opened in Boston.
Not only did the Revolutionary War begin in Boston, but the first African-American regiment was formed to fight in the American Civil War. Waves of immigration, especially Irish in the mid-18th century and Italian in the early 20th century, brought European influences to the city.
Today, Boston remains at the forefront of higher education, with its universities home to world-renowned businesses in biotechnology, medicine and finance.

Boston Attractions
Boston Common Squirrel
Boston is small so the best way to get around is on foot. Most of the main attractions are in or near the city center, so you can safely move from one to another. The narrow streets of most interesting places impede the movement of vehicles, and it is almost impossible to park there.
George Washington Statue, Boston Public Garden
Leave your car outside the city and drive downtown to the Boston Common on Subway T. This green island between Tremont, Boylston and Beacon streets is located on a 20-hectare plot of land purchased by the Massachusetts Bay Company from the reclusive Reverend William Blaxton in 1634. He sold the land when 900 Puritans arrived from England with whom he could not get along from – for their arrogance. As if trying to assert their innocence, the Puritans set up a pillory with stocks, a cage for sinners and a gallows on a pasture that serves as a pasture for cattle. Today, the Boston Common is known to students and citizens who love basketball and American football.
To the west, the Boston Common is adjoined by the City Garden, laid out in the 19th century. on the site of swamps south of the Charles River; neat flower beds became the first botanical garden in the country. The artificial lake in the middle serves as a boating place in summer and an ice rink in winter.

Red Brick Freedom TrailFreedom Trail 9 Emblem0003
The Information Center is located on Tremont Street, which borders the park, where you can buy maps, guides and get information about walking along the 4 km Freedom Trail, which introduces the main historical sights of the city. The road itself is marked with a red line or red bricks laid out on the sidewalk.
The quiet, white-spired church on Park Street was founded in 1809. At one time it was called Sulphurous Corner, because during the Anglo-American War of 1812-1814. gunpowder was stored in the local basement. From her pulpit in 1829abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison delivered the first speech against slavery. Behind the church is the Old Cemetery, where Paul Revere, Sam Adams, and J. Hancock, who signed the Declaration of Independence, are buried.
In Boston, there is the grave of Mary Goose, who allegedly composed the verse Tales of Mother Goose.
Boston skyline
The Old South Church, once Puritan (1729) and now the Revolutionary War Museum, is best known for hosting the humiliating “Boston Tea Party” by Sam Adams. The English, when they captured the city, set up a riding school there, setting up benches and a pulpit for firewood, but the rest of the wooden furniture was preserved.
Old South ChurchOld Capitol in Boston
Further down Washington Street, the Old Capitol (1712) was the residence of the British governor and is still decorated with the wooden figures of the lion and unicorn from the royal coat of arms (copies as the originals were burnt on 18 July 1776 after the Declaration of independence) . The spot where Crispas Attacs, an African American fugitive and the first casualty of the Revolutionary War, was shot dead.
Faneuil Hall (75 State Street) has been called the “Cradle of Liberty” because American politicians from Sam Adams to John F. Kennedy have spoken there. Suffragette Susan Anthony spoke out here against the slavery of blacks and women.
From Faneuil Hall, through Union and Marshall Streets, ducking under the Fitzgerald Expressway, head to the North End, now the heart of the Italian community, with its fresh pasta shops, tantalizing grocers and pizzerias among the pretty old houses with rooftop gardens.
Faneuil HallPark on Union StreetNorth End
End your walk on the Freedom Trail in North Square at the wooden Paul Revere House Museum (Paul Revere House; tel. devastating city fire of 1676. A Revolutionary War hero moved here in 1770, five years before his historic ride to warn New Englanders of the approach of the British.
Old North ChurchPaul Revere House Museum
On the north side of the house on Paul Revere Alley you can see the statue of a horseman, and behind – the beautiful Old North Church. On its bell tower, created in the style of the English architect Christopher Wren and restored after the devastating hurricane of 1954, two lanterns were hung out to warn Revere of the withdrawal of British troops. Draw attention to benches with unusually high wooden partitions. It turns out that the townspeople could hide behind them from the piercing winter wind.
Continue The Freedom Trail over the Charlestown Bridge leads to the first significant battle of the Revolutionary War at Bunker Hill between the militia and the British in July 1775. George Washington, the newly appointed commander of the Continental Army, heard of the battle and believed that the regular army of the colonists could overcome English.
Zakim Bridge, named after Boston public figure Leonard Zakim
To the east of the house is the Faneuil Hall marketplace, nestled among the administrative buildings of the Government Center and the new skyscrapers of the business districts. This hub of trendy shops, galleries, restaurants and cafes is one of the country’s most successful examples of historic city development.
The main building here is the Quincy Covered Market, which sells delicacies. The South Market is lined with art galleries, jewelry and gift shops, while the North Market is home to fashion stores.
Tobin Bridge, named after Maurice Joseph Tobin, mayor of Boston Quincy Market
Louisburg Square
Experience the city’s former rhythm in Beacon Hill, sandwiched between Government Center and the Boston Common. Here, among the cedars, chestnut trees, and gas jets of Mount Vernon Street and Louisbourg Square, one can admire the discreet splendor of the city’s most resplendent residential architecture. Bostonian Charles Bulfinch was one of the main creators of the Washington Capitol and the first American professional architect. In his city, he built federal-style houses, and the beautiful, if uncomplicated, red brick facades became an expression of New England grandeur.
Louisbourg Square, with a garden fenced in the middle and three-story houses with bay windows, resembles London squares during the reign of Georges (XVIII – early XIX century) . Many of the houses are decorated with the famous neo-Greek Doric-column terraces.
This found its most striking expression in the architect Bulfinch’s Massachusetts State Capitol, behind Beacon Street, erected in 1798 and laid the first stone in 1785 by Paul Revere and Sam Adams. It was this building, with its impressive Doric portico and gilded dome, that enabled Bulfinch to receive a building commission in Washington and take its rightful place in the history of architecture.
Back Bay, west of City Garden, was the bay behind downtown Boston as it was in the 19th century until it became a Victorian-style residential area for local merchants. Now it is revitalized by fashion stores and art galleries, and dominated by the John Hancock Tower and the Prudential Insurance Skyscraper.
Back Bay – a prestigious area of Boston; the only one in the city that has a strict square layout
Both buildings feature observation decks, although architecturally the most attractive is the graceful John Hancock Tower in Holy Trinity Square near St. John the Evangelist Street, built by Chinese architect Bei Yuming and covered with reflective glass. From the 60th floor (half a minute by elevator) offers majestic views of Cambridge and Charlestown all the way to the New Hampshire mountains. Find out in advance if the viewing platforms are open.

Boston Public Schools. Who gets what – and why [A book about markets that work without money]
The above fact was almost completely ignored in the system of distribution of children to educational institutions in Boston. And, unfortunately, no one even understood that this was a problem.
In contrast to Boston, in New York they realized the need to reorganize the system of distribution of schoolchildren, although it was reminiscent of the treatment of a heart attack: the patient himself understood that something needed to be done, and as quickly as possible. Since after the completion of all rounds of distribution, the interests of an incredibly large number of students – as many as thirty thousand – could be infringed upon, delay was like death. In addition, the New York City market was saturated, and convincing people that it was not safe to talk openly about their preferences seemed to be a secondary problem.
In Boston, solving a market design problem was more like treating a patient with high blood pressure. The symptoms of this dangerous disease are usually less obvious. Unlike New York, a well-functioning computerized distribution system had already been introduced here: families made lists of educational institutions in descending order of priority, and the child was enrolled in one of the schools. Thus, in this case, oversaturation was not a problem; distribution was fast, although, it must be admitted, after the main round, waiting lists were reduced rather slowly.
It should be said that the Boston Public Schools (BPS) used its own algorithm to distribute children not only to secondary schools, but even to preschools and middle school classes. And it seemed that a lot of students ended up in educational institutions that were listed first on the list. However, all these positive results masked a very serious problem: users did not trust the system. BPS tried its best to give them what they wanted, but the way it used was considered very risky by the families of the students, so they were afraid to openly talk about their preferences.
The Boston system was based on rules that clearly defined priorities in the distribution of children to schools. According to these norms, half of the places in a regular school were given first of all to those who already had older brothers and sisters in it. In the second place, priority was given to children who lived nearby and could walk to school. Within these groups – for example, if there were not enough places for all the children living near the school – the distribution took place according to the principle of a lottery; the lucky ones got them. And when distributing the second half of the seats, priority was established solely by lot.
The division of Boston schools into two halves reflects the political realities of this city. The distribution of children into schools seemed to divide parents into two “parties”. People living in an area with good schools formed the “Party of Those Who Walk to School” and the rest formed the “Party of Choice.” The politics of priority in Boston (a city whose residents still remember the “bus wars” {10} that were fought just a generation ago, during the days of desegregation) represented a compromise between these two groups. The details of this policy were adjusted from year to year, taking into account which group currently enjoyed the most political influence in the city.
After adjusting priorities and settling other relevant issues, the old Boston system, which, by the way, is still used in many US cities, worked as follows. The central administration asked parents to make a list of at least three schools in descending order of preference. Then, using the algorithm, as many children as possible were assigned to the schools that were first on the list. If such schools did not accommodate everyone who most of all wanted to study in them, the children were distributed taking into account the priorities described above, up to filling all the places. This means that each educational institution immediately enrolled students with the highest priority, those who indicated it first on their list – as many as they could accommodate – and the rest of the school refused. The same “immediate enrollment” algorithm then distributed as many of the remaining students as possible to the second schools on the list. Then the children were assigned to the schools listed third in the list of preferences, and so on. And those for whom there was no place in any of the schools included in their lists, the Department of Education sent to the school closest to their place of residence, where there were still free places.
Surely you thought: what is wrong with such a system? Apparently, she is trying to help as many people as possible get what they want in the first place. At first glance, this approach does appear to be well-intentioned, rational, and simple. However, there are things that are easy to describe but difficult to navigate . Like the old New York system, Boston’s system presented homeschoolers with difficult strategic choices, and it was often not safe for them to rank schools in an order that reflected their real preferences.
Why? Let’s consider such a situation. Let’s say a family with a child lives not far from a very popular kindergarten in the area, which is open half a day. In the list of preferences, the baby’s parents indicated this preschool institution as the second item. In the first place was a no less popular kindergarten, located a little further from their home, but working all day. Since parents know that they live “within walking distance” from the first preschool institution, they can be sure that by naming it first on the list, they will certainly get a place there. However, if they reveal their true preferences, that is, they choose the garden that works all day as the first number, and the garden that works half the day as the second, then as a result they may not get a place either there or there. But their child may not be accepted to this preschool on the basis that his brothers and sisters do not go there, or because the family lives quite far from the garden (the principle of accessibility does not apply). At the same time, in such a situation, their child may not get a place in kindergarten number two, which, due to popularity, will fill all the places with children whose parents named him first on their list. In short, such a high-demand preschool will receive more priority applications than it has available places, and therefore will fill up as soon as the algorithm distributes the maximum number of children to kindergartens according to parents’ preferences.
Then things get even worse. It is likely that the parents of our child will not place him in the garden, which was listed as the third in their list of , since he can get there only if the empty places are not filled with babies whose parents indicated him first or second in the order of their priorities. To an even greater extent, this applies to preschool institutions listed by the fourth, fifth, sixth and so on number in the list. In fact, under the old Boston system, few people ranked more than three educational institutions, since the chances of getting into the desired school or kindergarten, indicated beyond the third paragraph, were negligible.
Let’s go back to our example. If the child’s parents put a full-time kindergarten first on the list, then in all likelihood they will either get the desired place (if they are lucky), or they will not get a place in any kindergarten from their list and their child will be placed in an unpopular preschool an institution in which, after the distribution of all the children to the demanded kindergartens, there will still be free places. Like this: either pan or disappear. Either you hit a big jackpot, or you end up really bad. But some schools and kindergartens are not popular for good reason, and if the parents from our example could only place a child in such a kindergarten, they may decide to send him to a private school (if they can afford it) or even move to the suburbs. Keep in mind that BPS, as a subdivision of the City of Boston, has very powerful leverage to keep disgruntled parents out of its system. The dissatisfaction of the townspeople can at least harm the current city authorities in the next elections; in the worst case, disgruntled parents will leave Boston altogether and the city will lose part of the income in the form of taxes coming from them. For these reasons, economists and city planners increasingly list the availability of good public schools as a critical factor in maintaining a city’s health.
Faced with difficult choices, many Boston parents understandably tried to protect themselves. About 80 percent of the children were assigned to the schools that their mothers and fathers recorded in the list as the first item. On paper, the system looked remarkably successful; the impression was created that most of its participants get what they most want. But in reality, many simply preferred to play it safe and make a safe strategic decision.
Such behavior may seem natural at first glance. I already mentioned this earlier, in a conversation about unraveling, that is, the need to make decisions early. This is the kind of need you face when you drive down a street full of cars looking for a parking spot. Now imagine how you would feel if you had to say which parking spot you prefer in the first place, that is, if you had to apply for a place in the same way as parents under the old Boston school allocation system, and the city would give places first of all to those who indicated this or that place as the first number of their preference rating. You see free space. Should you stop at it (like as if is the first number), or is it worth the risk and try to find really a better place near your destination, even if your chances of doing so are very low?
If parking spaces were distributed through a clearing house that would try to the best of its ability to choose the most preferred option for the maximum number of motorists, then in order not to end up empty-handed, you could well indicate in the first place the place that you think you can get if call its first. Even this simple choice applies to strategic , because you need to take into account the likely decisions of other people, on which the popularity of parking spaces that are most likely occupied largely depends.
In 2003, reporter Gareth Cook wrote an article in the Boston Globe about an economics report published earlier that year by Atila Abdulkadiroglu and Typhoon Sonmez; in the report, scientists analyzed the Boston system of placing children in schools. It was not difficult for the journalist to find parents who confirmed that the need to enter into confrontation with the system causes them serious disappointment[48]. As one such person put it, “Parents’ frustration with this system is solely due to the fact that they have to name the first number of choices that really are not.”
Sometime later that year, the superintendent of the Boston Department of Schools and his staff suggested that Atila, Typhoon, Parag Patak, and myself meet with them and discuss what we see as the main problems in their distribution system and how they can be resolved. It is curious that even the invitation to this meeting was preceded by some actions in the style of matchmaking, a bit reminiscent of organizing a blind date. Eminent education economist Caroline Hoxby asked the Dean of the Graduate School of Education at Harvard University to contact BPS Chief Inspector Tom Peisant and tell him that the district’s issues should be discussed with us.
So, on the morning of October 9, the four of us arrived at 26 Court Street, the BPS headquarters. Earlier, we sent them materials outlining our ideas for transforming the placement system into schools so that families could safely communicate their true preferences.
BPS staff were initially skeptical. They argued, “Economics professors may be able to circumvent the rules of the system, but ordinary citizens, of course, never do anything like that.” Having heard such an opinion, I must admit that I thought that our first meeting could well be the last.
However, the mood changed as soon as Typhoon began to talk about a laboratory experiment[49] conducted by him together with his colleague Yang Chen. It must be said that modern economists often use various experiments as evidence that the economic environment affects people’s behavior. We create artificial economies in laboratories and pay participants in experiments based on the results they achieve. Such experiments, of course, do not replace field observations, but supplement them. The advantage of the research approach is that in the laboratory you can control and measure many aspects of the real environment that you can only guess about. Although it is not possible to study the full range of aspects and details that parents consider when choosing a school for their child in reality in laboratory conditions, it is quite possible to assess whether the system used – in this case the Immediate Consent Algorithm – is able to effectively allocate scarce resources.
In fact, the lists of schools submitted by parents to BPS did not reflect true , but only declared preferences. In an experiment that assigned conditional places, the researcher could tell the participants how much they would earn if they were eventually assigned to one or another conditional school. This allowed the experimenter to compare the preferences of the participants, according to their rating, with the money they actually earned, depending on which school they were eventually assigned to.
Participants in the experiment did not know that it was about Boston schools; they were just trying to earn some extra money and trying their best to get the best and most status distribution. And the researcher could tell them what was more profitable for them by openly announcing how much money they would receive in this or that development of events. This means that in the laboratory the experimenter could learn the true preferences of the participants, which are immeasurably more difficult to reveal in a much more complex real environment.
Now, in one part of Typhoon and Yang’s experiment, participants pretending to be Boston families tried to get placement into desired schools through the BPS mechanism. The researchers paid participants $16 if they were assigned to the most expensive school, $13 to the second most expensive school, $11 to the third, and so on in rotation, up to $2 for the least profitable option. Since Typhoon and Yang themselves determined the preferences of the subjects for each school participating in the experiment, they immediately saw when someone gave a rating different from his true preferences.
The results of the experiment threw the BPS leadership into confusion and shock. The researchers found that some participants “tailored” their preferences to as the top ranked number , even if that choice didn’t earn them the most. In other words, they intuitively knew that they would achieve a better match and earn more if they declared their desire to get the best alternative of available to them in the first place than if they tried to earn the largest amount of 16 dollars, while risking losing and gaining in the end. far less. Realizing this fact, BPS employees became more receptive to our ideas and suggestions.
I asked them, “What is the best kindergarten in Boston?” It turned out to be Lyndon School in West Roxbury. Then I asked: “Do all parents name this educational institution as their first preference?” It turned out that no; after all, it would be simply stupid to waste your main attempt, since you still won’t get to Lindon if you are not in the forefront of priority. It’s too hard to get into such a popular preschool.
“That’s it!” – we answered this.

tea party ”(Boston Tea Party) call the protest of the group
rebellious colonists against unfair taxes on tea (Tea Law).
Protesters threw 342 crates of tea into the water, which belonged to the English
East India Company. The action took place on December 16, 1773 under the slogan:
“In the evening, Boston Bay will become a teapot!”. This event played
important role in American history, sparking the Revolutionary War
U.S.A.
Today, when visiting Boston Harbor, you have the opportunity to board two fully equipped vintage ships of the 18th century, the Eleanor and the whaler Beaver, which are moored at the Giffin Wharf. Next to them is an interesting museum dedicated to the Boston Tea Party and the historical events that followed. Exciting performances, interactive exhibits, and unique artifacts await you, including an antique Robinson Half Chest tea box.

Heading west from Harvard Square, you’ll come across Brattle Street, the epitome of colonial chic. This quarter is also called Tory Row (Royal Street) due to the fact that many Tory colonists lived here in their luxurious mansions during the American Revolution.
Tory Row is a wonderful place to take a walk, during which you will have the opportunity to admire the architecture of historical buildings of the 18th century and learn some interesting facts about the American Revolutionary War.
