[quote=Anonymous]The DCPS schools that will have Head Start removed will probably eliminate their PK3 classes. If DCPS chooses to only have Head Start at schools with a 50% or more Head Start eligibility rate, only about 35-40 of the current 60 Title I elementary schools would be provided with services and any type of Central Office ECE support. Sure, the ECE teachers from schools that had their programs cut would still be able to attend the district wide PD sessions offered three times a year. However, none of the those schools would receive the intensive coaching they current receive. And given the current budget situation at DCPS, I highly doubt that they will make up the difference. Schools like Bancroft, Garrison, Marie Reed, Miner, Seaton, Tyler, Payne, JO Wilson will have to figure out how to support their own ECE programs without any Central Office support. I can already see the ECE teachers at Miner, JO Wilson, Tyler, Payne, and Marie Reed struggling when this happens. The ECE teachers at SWW at Francis Stevens still haven’t recovered since they lost their Title I status two years ago. The CLASS scores for their ECE teachers were quite bad. Oh well, now the ECE Division can focus on serving PK students and teachers with the greatest need. [/quote]
