Why does it matter? This status places us in the top 7% of preschools in the United States. Accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young Children is considered the gold standard of quality. Our program must meet rigorous standards with our facility, staff, curriculum and more. DHCDC was the first program on the Peninsula to become NAEYC accredited, and we have now continued that tradition of quality at our Mary Peake location with impressive scores.

We weren’t accepted for free preschool and are unable to afford other high-quality preschools—if DHCDC did not exist, Claro and Miriam would not be in preschool at all. My children would instead have stayed home with me, but they wouldn’t have been prepared for kindergarten because I have great difficulty in teaching the building blocks of numbers, letters and other important lessons taught in preschool. What first brought DHCDC to our attention was that it was NAEYC accredited. But also, it’s the care and dedication of the teachers and staff that make DHCDC a better choice than other child care centers/preschools. I was abused as a child, and that has made it difficult at times to give my “My child started off the year children a normal childhood, as I myself didn’t have one. I am so thankful for shy, very quiet and now she has DHCDC for not only giving my children excellent care, but by doing so, showing me how to help my children succeed. blossomed into a smart little girl who now interacts well with the other students and staff.” Cash’s Story As told by his mom “If DHCDC did not exist, my We have a large family, so money is tight.

    ot too long ago, I went to visit some relatives back in Radon, the Bassholes, or Teengenerate, during every spare moment of Alabama.

  • Play on and Thanks the Director Wes for “Creating a Pleasant Working Environment and Not Striking Terror Into All Our Hearts”
    From the President... your soon to be favorite room. Welcome Village Players Family, THE BATH FITTER. I had hoped by the time I wrote this letter I wouldn’t have to think of things like unemployment, recession, war, or disasters (natural or man-made). But the truth is that our region is still struggling to find jobs, we wrestle with the idea of loosening purse strings, and oil is still washing up on our shores. The pulse of America is metered, we make decisions for our families cautiously, our hearts ache for our men and women who fight so far from home, and we hope our leaders make decisions that are right and just, not merely popular. This isn’t the first time that our country has faced crises; it’s not even the worst crisis we’ve encountered. But these are our times, and these are our problems. However, in times of trouble it is the arts that lift the spirit and the soul. The Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, and The Mamas and the Papas were inspired by Vietnam. The movies of Cecil B. DeMille, and the music of the Big Bands were born from the World Wars. Pal Joey, Porgy and Bess, Oklahoma!, Mikado, Pirates of Penzance, Carousel, and Showboat (just to name a few) made their Broadway debuts during WWII! Music, television, cinema, and theatre can be a window on a different time and place, or a mirror of reality and stark truth. They give us the opportunity to momentarily escape or challenge us to gain new perspectives.

I’ll be damned if I can decide which introduction to use for the The U- Haul Adventures, so I’ll leave the choice to you. Simply select your favorite intro, and inform me of your choice via mail or email. I’ll tally the votes and the most popular introduction will be the one that everyone reads! Tally ho! Mike #1 - For those who like the literary approach: “A prologue is written last but placed first to explain the book's shortcomings and to ask the reader to be kind. But a prologue is also a note of farewell from a writer to his book. For years the writer and his book have been together—friends or bitter enemies but very close as only love and fighting can accomplish. ” —John Steinbeck, Journal o f a Novel #2 - For those who dig the dry details: The U-Haul Adventures could be accurately subtitled “Columns I Wrote for Other Zines That My Friends Never Got to Read, Along with New Stuff I Wrote for Tour.” Last summer I went through the box in which I keep copies of zines I’ve written for. Flipping through the stack I realized that most of my friends never had a chance to read the columns, and never would given that all but one of the zines is now extinct. (Josh Rutledge’s fab Now Wave being the noteworthy exception.) And that’s not right because I often write with my friends in mind.
