Hi Vincent!
Good to see you here. :) Thanks for sharing this important work. There are several posts on the forum talking about reaching out to bridge the gap between pre-K programs and public schools. P-3 advocates around the country are doing this in important ways. Your work in NJ is leading the way!
I appreciate your spreading the word. We can't forget that our young children progress through a number of disconnected systems before reaching the upper primary grades. Smoothing those transitions and working together will make the experiences of young children much more powerful and connected.
I encourage anyone interested in this work to connect with the
National P-3 Center out of the University of Washington, where you will find resources and information on where P-3 work is happening across the country.
Best,
Melissa

So as scholars and policymakers, we have set out to answer the question... | | View this on National Institute for Early Education Research > |
