THE C ORE K NOWLEDGE S ERIES
Though I have twenty-five years teaching experience, this is my first year as a Core Knowledge teacher. Now, for the first time in a long time, I am excited about teaching again. As for my students, I seriously believe that many of them would eliminate summer vacation to get on with the business of learning!
Joan Falbey, teacher, Three Oaks Elementary School, Fort Myers, Florida
Thank you for writing such wonderful books! My children and I have thoroughly enjoyed them. Your books have been a great source and a guide to us. I have a degree in elementary education and I think this is the best curriculum I have encountered.
Barbara de la Aguilera, parent, Miami, Florida
For three years, we have been using elements of the Core Knowledge program, and I have watched as it invigorated our students. These books should be in every classroom in America.
Richard E. Smith, principal, Northside Elementary School, Palestine, Texas
Hirsch made it quite clear (in Cultural Literacy) that respect for cultural diversity is important but is best achieved when young people have adequate background knowledge of mainstream culture. In order for a truly democratic and economically sound society to be maintained, young people must have access to the best knowledge available so that they can understand the issues, express their viewpoints, and act accordingly.
James P. Comer, M.D., professor, Child Study Center, Yale University (in Parents magazine)

This series has depended on the help, advice, and encouragement of some two thousand people. Some of those singled out here already know the depth of our gratitude; others may be surprised to find themselves thanked publicly for help they gave quietly and freely for the sake of the enterprise alone. To helpers named and unnamed we are deeply grateful.
