[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd hold off on the outrage you all seem to have about universal pre-K in MoCo. It's been talked about for years, and will continue to be discussed for years before it can be implemented, especially with the governor we currently have. As far as improving student achievement, though, studies do show that it is a valuable program. [/quote] Actually that is not true. There have been studies recently that show programs such as Head Start do not have as much of a positive future effect as they claim. Not saying we should eliminate Head Start, but your claim that 'studies show it is a valuable program' are not completely true.[/quote] No. The studies show that, if you drop a Head Start kid into failing school like the ones that most Head Start kids are zoned for, they will lose the advantages of Head Start by 3rd Grade. However, we don't have to drop kids into failing schools. [/quote]
