Lessons from Reggio Emilia.

Palestis, Ernest

Principal, v73 n5 p16-17,19 May 1994

Reggio Emilia's pioneering effort in preschool education has been widely replicated throughout Italy, where almost 90% of nation's children aged 3-6 enroll in national, municipal, private preschools. These preschools are unlike any in the United States. There are no building principals or school boards. America must invest more time, money, and parent energy in preschool education. (MLH)
