Evidence shows that participation in pre-K can benefit children from all backgrounds. But questions remain about what learning experiences in pre-K best support children’s learning and how long the “pre-K boost” lasts for different types of skills and for different groups of children.

Researchers also examined policy-level factors and systems that influence pre-K access and outcomes. (author abstract)
