In this issue, we'll take a close look at the pre-K boost and what we can do to maintain it.

Early Learning Network researchers share what they're learning collectively about the pre-K boost and ways to help young children sustain this boost over time as they transition through the early years of school, specifically focusing on the following key factors:

  • Skill building
  • Sustained environments

They also provide specific insights on what this research means for practice and policy.
Pre-K offers children a boost, but how do we make it last?

New video: Maintaining the pre-K boost
The Early Learning Network, funded by the Institute of Education Sciences , leverages its expertise, resources and geographic diversity to help close the achievement gap and maintain early learning success as children transition from preschool to third grade. Together, network researchers from universities and organizations across the U.S. are examining current policies and practices, identifying malleable factors associated with early learning and achievement and developing tools to assess early learning instruction, interactions and environments.
