[Dialogue] 4 Archive Qs - Pre-School Curriculum

[W. J.]

I think the first IMAGE was on "Educating the Imagination of Urban Youth" or 
something close to it. It was known as the "Youth IMAGE." Haven't checked to see 
if its on the Golden Pathways.

Here is information from The Golden Pathways CD. When I was working on the 
history I got the names of people involved in the early pre-school from Nan and 
Bill Grow. Another layer of research could be done for The Archives by anyone 
willing to take on the project to do deeper digging by directly contacting 
people involved to see what they recall. 


Jim Wiegel, perhaps you have some early pre-school stories in the interviews you 
have done with folks.

A CHRONOLOGICAL HISTORY, 1952-1994, of THE ECUMENICAL INSTITUTE and THE 
INSTITUTE OF CULTURAL AFFAIRSTHE YEAR BEGINNING JULY 1966 


SUMMER RESEARCH ASSEMBLY: Six weeks long. RS-1 and Imaginal Education Pedagogy. 
Fifth City Preschool* curriculum created. A teachers' group met during the 
summer. Participants were primarily college students, teachers and church 
leaders. 


COUNCIL I: Emphasized writing to clarify context, task & basic structures of the 
organization. "The Prolegomena to the Rule of the Order" was written. 


Worship was held in the jet hanger. 

5th City Preschool opened in September. It was the first 5th City structure 
created as a part of the community reformulation project. It dealt directly with 
the "victim image" of people living in the inner city. The first Preschool field 
trip was an airplane ride over Chicago. In 1971 an independent researcher for 
HEW said, "...Your preschool is one of the ten in the nation selected by the 
Office of Economic Opportunity as a particularly suitable for a demonstration 
project." (5th City, Rebirth of the Human City, 1973).

Teachers' Guild formed in the fall: Kay Maconathy, Pat Scott, Sarah Hewitte, 
Anne Filipski, Jim Campbell, Ken Filipski, Dolores Perez, Donna McCleskey, 
Marilyn Miller Oyler and Kay Ent Lush were the first participants in the guild. 


5th City Preschool teachers 1966-97: Ruth Marshall, Rose West, Nan Grow, Aimee 
Hilliard, Maryann Wainwright. (Grow, 1993.)

The first IMAGE is published. (Grow, 1993).
