School-Age Child Care : An Action Manual for the 90s and Beyond--Second Edition
Editorial Reviews
Review
“About the previous edition: "The book could survive on its subtitle--An Action Manual--alone: Although the authors deal specifically with starting and running a center, their advice, explanations, and models apply to most school program-building situations, from starting a fund-raising plan to establishing an alternative school.”–The American School Board Journal
Book Description
In this new edition of a pioneering work, Seligson and Allenson explore the challenges which child care providers will encounter as the 21st century approaches. The manual guides the reader through the process of designing, implementing, and managing caring programs for children ages 5 to 12. Supported by work done at the School-Age Child Care Project of the Wellesley College Center for Research on Women, the present volume focuses on the needs of children, and provides examples of model programs as well as appropriate resources for child care situations. By balancing this practical business operations text with an investigation into the meaning of social obligation, the authors have produced a fascinating blend of how-to and philosophy. This is an authoritative and indispensable resource.
