Valuing Families

03/30/2017

Love is a combination of care, commitment, knowledge, responsibility, respect and trust.

"To me a family is not just the parents…it's anybody who has taken an active role in helping the child grow," says Karla Corona in the brand new Turn-Key DVD: Inspiring Practices for Partnering with Families."… It's those people who are actually going to invest their personal time to help raise this child today."

Linda Whitehead, another featured speaker, emphasizes the importance of being sure children know we value their families. "Be really deliberate about being welcoming and warm and accepting of the variety of families that you work with…When children see their parents being treated positively by the teacher, it tells them that my family matters and that I in turn also matter."
