РезюмеТранскрипцияПовече

It's very much a team approach at the center. So you have the individual teams as far as the classrooms, but I am part of that team as is Polly, the director, we're all part of that team. We have the teaching teams, the administrative teams, and when the families first come to the center, and I know they enrolling, I meet with each one of the teachers to let them know the insights I have about the families. So they have the base information to start with, and then they also have to look over all the forms that the families give us and I do work with the teachers and support them while they working with the families. So there is a lot of contact between the teachers and myself, and between families. It's really very much for the community atmosphere, and the team atmosphere, so we're all working together to make sure each child gets what they need. [01:34:00] So there definitely is a lot of interaction, not just from the administration to the teachers, but to within the teachers, each one 8 of the classrooms interact, so when the teacher move from one class to the next all the teachers are prepared for that. All the children are prepared to move. Everyone gets know, over the course of the year, all the children in the center, whether their in their class or not. And I get to know what's happening in all the classrooms so that there's organized communication on every possible level, hopefully that's what we're going for. We want everyone to be aware of what's going on, so if a parent has a conversation with me in confidence, I'll share with the teachers as much as I possibly can so the teacher know what's happening, so if there's something going on with a child, if they've noticed a change, they'll perhaps understand what might be happening. Sometimes families have very confidential information of things that happen in the family and some of that is shared with the teachers, enough so that they know what's happening. So there's a lot of interface between myself and the teachers.
