Each of the two programs is staffed by a Program Supervisor, assistant teacher, parent volunteer, and college student interns. The teachers who supervise both the children and college students are members of the SFSU faculty and are specialists in early childhood education. The approximate ratio of teachers to children is 1 to 4, which allows for close supervision and individual attention.
University students have daily opportunities to integrate child development theory with practice.
Each session with children is preceded by a planning meeting and followed with an evaluation session.
