  2. What’s Really Happening With Increased Early Childhood Ed

  3. There’s No Correlation Between Early Ed Spending and Performance!

  4. And Studies Show What’s Called Early Child Ed “Fade Out” “As with the 4-year-old cohort, there was no strong evidence of impacts on children’s language, literacy, or math measures at the end of kindergarten or at the end of 1st grade.” (Head Start Impact Study, Executive Summary, January 15, 2010, p. 21)

  5. ECE programs WEAKEN Development Over Time “Institutionalized messages surrounding ECE claim that it has the potential to promote children’s life-long success, especially among low-income children. I examine the legitimacy of these claims by reviewing empirical evidence that bears on them and find that most are based on results of a small set of impressive but outdated studies. More recent literature reveals positive, short-term effects of ECE programs on children’s development that weaken over time.”  – Lowenstein, Journal of Educational Policy, January 2011 – Emphasis added

  6. Diminishing Returns by 3rd Grade “…the achievement impact of preschool appears to diminish during the first four years of school…preschool alone may have limited use as a long-term strategy for improving the achievement gap…”  Rumberger, et. al, UCSB, 1/06, pp. 79-80
