The kindergarten as an influence in modern civilization 

Let us remember that we are to train the child from the first years of his life, through his every activity, with that great truth in mind.

  3. I also posted Raymon Hernandez's quote on my blog as well. His statment is so profound and resonates in me. So many times we as educators have heard that apart of our role is to change the world. However, if we each make an impact in our local schools and communities we will change the world one child and family at a time.
