Boston
University Children's Center
Staff
The primary professional staff consists of
a director, an assistant director, three lead teachers, and one assistant
lead teacher all exceptionally well-qualified and dedicated individuals
with extensive experience in early childhood education. Boston University
student employees, volunteers, and student teachers trained at the Center
serve as teaching assistants. Each student works a minimum of two sessions
per week, attends a weekly training meeting and stays throughout at
least one semester. Most students, however, work longer hours and stay
longer than one semester. They have contributed to our program in many
areas, including music, creative drama, and physical education. They
are available for babysitting outside of Center time.
The
teacher-to-child ratio is one adult to every four or five children.
