Description:

Since its inception in 1916, Bank Street has has devoted its efforts to the education of children by combining progressive educational philosophy with innovative practices. Nearly one hundred years later, innovation remains our watchword.
Bank Street was first established as the Bureau of Educational Experiments by the visionary educator Lucy Sprague Mitchell (herself the first Dean of Women at the University of California at Berkeley). A group of highly trained professionals--teachers, psychologists, and researchers--met to observe exactly how young children learn. They began to document the learning process in order to determine the environments and educational practices best suited to foster the growth and development of children. Their findings contributed to a fundamental reform in the way children are taught.
