¶ … Director Can Collaborate With the Local Community;
Create a program that gets the local community involved
Include the parents in the planning of the curriculum of the children
Develop curriculum that ensure the students participate in community-based programs like planting of tree, giving to the poor and charity events
The director can involve the leaders of the community in the curriculum of the school that will make the community feel part of the program.
The example below shows a live account of how the community and an early education center collaborated and my advice to the director.
My first piece of advice to the director would be to use the local schools. The director in my view would be a director for early childhood education. Valeska Hilton acts as an example of an early childhood center for education. The director used the local school district in order to create a partnership program....
The director alongside the local schools wrote a grant to the VHECEC for funding of their program. The program got the majority of the VHECEC funding. This activity enabled the education center to interact and be included in the school district. The program help to reduce the gaps that existed in the education of students like the number of under privileged children that got access to quality education and expansion of talents rather than simple education. The school district raised areas in education where improvement was required and the early education center addresses those issues thus preventing occurrence. The program also improved transition from early education systems to primary school education thus improving achievements by students.

This examples show community collaboration and the ability to fulfill dreams
On 25th, August, 1993, the first students to attend the early education institution in the city of Peoria were admitted. The parents and students were welcomed to the institutions with smiles and tears of joy by over twenty people who worked to create the dream of the institution. The institution could hold 278 students for early education (Bruno). The city was brought to life by the institution since it represented the hopes and dreams of the parents in the city. The institution gave the community hope that the children will have a bright future. The planning and construction involved the; district staff, personnel from YMCA, daycare centers, urban league, head start, public building commission, school board, and the superintendent. The local universities, colleges and local business also contributed. Unity created from the collaboration of the parties involved created the $7,000,000 Valeska institution (Bruno).
The NAEYC produces a peer review journal that looks at the best practices for early education. The practices focus on the cognitive, physical and emotional/social growth of the child. The first insight I got was that the NAEYC aims at creating an environment of caring for the students. The teachers enable an environment of caring and a value system that makes students feel accepted. The main aim of the practice is to help the learners feel safe and be able to open up. The second insight I received was that teachers should practice developing students from their strengths. The early learners show different strengths that make them unique, the teacher's job is to identify each student's strengths and weaknesses and assist children to develop their strengths and improve on their weaknesses. The teachers implement a comprehensive curriculum that encompasses different areas of development for the betterment of the
Community relations and public relations are oftentimes used interchangeably, yet they serve distinct roles within an organization's strategy to build and maintain its position within society. Understanding the differences and overlaps between these two functions is essential for any organization trying to optimize its engagement with both its immediate stakeholders and the broader public. Public relations (PR) is a strategic communication process that builds mutually beneficial relationships between organizations and their
(1990) Municipal Government Involvement in Crime Prevention in Canada. This work provides insight into the way that municipal government interacts with the police in the organization of crime prevention structures and the delivery of crime prevention services and activities. (Hastings, 1990, p. 108) The idea of municipal government interaction in crime prevention is shown to have been spurred on in Canada by "....the successes of locally organized and community-based initiatives
Community policing is a strategy that requires both new attitudes and commitments from citizens and new attitudes and commitments from police officers. It builds on the basic practices of policing by emphasizing cooperation between the police department and the citizenry, by emphasizing the prevention of crimes as opposed to just catching perpetrators, and by developing long-term solutions to existing and potential problems in the community (U.S. Department of Justice [DOJ],
Community participation is a key ingredient of any powerful community. The life blood (citizens) of the community is pumped by the heart, called as participation. Community participation is a requirement as well as a condition. It is a condition for raising resources and achieving more results. It engages the citizens deeply in work of the development of community. Community participation is about performing activities for the benefits of any community.
Community Policing Efficacy The Violent Crime Control & Law Enforcement Act of 1994 heralded the beginning of a massive effort to reform policing strategies in the United States, in part through implementation of community-policing programs at the local level. Congress has allocated billions of federal dollars over the years since to support such efforts and by the end of the 20th century, close to 90% of all police departments serving communities
