Book excerpt: Early childhood education (ECE) programs should be nurturing places for staff members and students alike. Research indicates that how early educators interact and value one another, share instructional strategies, and support one another directly influences student outcomes, job satisfaction, parental involvement, and community support. The author identifies research proven shared norms, values, and behaviors that contribute to an empowering ECE school culture (ESC). She shares best practices (innovation planning, professional development planning, etc.) and transmitters of school (organization) culture (e.g. rituals, ceremonies, stories, language, myths, heroes, and symbols) that empower early educators. Join Althea on a reflective journey of self-discovery and development that will promote personal, professional, and organizational growth and development.
