Wilder Research, in conjunction with the Invest Early |
|
leadership team and staff, is conducting a longitudinal |
|
and cost-benefit evaluation of the program. Annual |
|
reports document the implementation and assessment of |
|
Invest Early and outcomes for the service system, |
|
families, and children. Invest Early is effective in |
|
preparing low-income students with multiple risk factors |
|
for school success when delivered in sufficient quantity. |
|
Highlights of this year seven summary include: (1) Home |
|
learning environments, which are associated with higher |
|
school readiness scores, improve significantly for Invest |
|
Early families during their participation; (2) |
|
Kindergarten entry results show that Invest Early |
|
children perform better than their low-income comparison |
|
peers (58% vs. 52% proficient, where proficiency is |
|
defined as achieving 75% of the total points), and they |
|
continued to narrow the gap with the higher-income group |
|
this year; (3) More Invest Early students were ready for |
|
kindergarten this year than in all previous years; and |
|
(4) Efforts within the Invest Early communities to |
|
improve conditions for school readiness systemically may |
|
be gaining momentum and benefiting all low-income |
|
students. [For "Invest Early: Early Childhood Initiative. |
