Laurie Levy
I am a passionate advocate for children, developmentally appropriate educational practices, diversity, inclusion, community building, and the rights of children with special needs. Retired after being Founding Director of Cherry Preschool and an early childhood program director for over 30 years, I believe in empowering parents and teachers, and creating caring and just school communities. I also write about whatever strikes my fancy through the lens of an aging Boomer who both battles and embraces change.
