Educa Success Stories

Hear from Educa users themselves

I have seen teachers speak with more joy and passion through writing Learning Stories. They are praising children for what they can do. They are sharing in the celebration of their accomplishments. It’s so different from just moving the marker on a checklist. Teachers have the opportunity to sit and interact and take notes very closely, allowing them to truly reflect and see those AHA learning moments.

Patrick Eckelmann UPK Director

These Learning Stories matter to our families. When a story is published they are excited, they are impressed by it, they are pleased by it. They come to pick-up with the biggest smiles saying:

"Thank you for letting me into my child’s world. Thank you for allowing me in the classroom. Thank you for giving me suggestions on what I can do next at home."

Yolanda Flowers Preschool Teacher

Educa gives us a place to build and grow the picture of a child. This story can be shared with parents and future teachers, who can work in partnership with the center to build these skills at home. A true partnership, where else can you get this?! It also allows us to set organizational goals for teachers and centers, so that they can be reflective and evaluative. It allows us to lift the quality of what we do.

Jackie Lints Co-Founder, Educare Group

In the past, families took the pictures out of their portfolios and threw the rest away. With Learning Stories they respond to their child’s story. They get to see just how much I see their child, and sometimes they even learn things about their child they didn’t know. I think it is incredibly powerful for them to see that the staff enjoys their child, and that they are more than welcome in our programs.
