Description:
Building from the 2012/2013 Minnesota Head Start Child Progress Report, Minnesota Head Start Programs aggregated child assessment data for independent data analysis at the end of the 2013/2014 school year. These data represent a large sample of 4 year old children (n=3048) enrolled in Minnesota Head Start programs with a rural and urban mix. Nineteen of the 33 programs in the State voluntarily shared data. The sample represents 40% of all 4 year olds enrolled in Head Start programming. The sample mirrors the overall characteristics of the Head Start population served: 44% racially diverse, 31% primary language not English, 16% diagnosed with a disability, 6.5% homeless or foster children. This report will highlight some new findings in this latest analysis of child progress for 4 year olds enrolled in Head Start in Minnesota. (author abstract)
