It is a fact that children who attend Early Childhood Programs:

 Are more likely to graduate from high school
 Have higher standardized test scores
 Are less likely to repeat a grade
 Are less likely to need special education services
 Perform better academically and socially
 Will have higher wages as adults
 Are less likely to be arrested for a violent crime
 Are less likely to be a teen parent
 Are more likely to attend college

If we invest in programs that promote learning, beginning at birth, we can make a difference in the lives of children. Take a moment and evaluate the difference quality education can make…we can change the statistics, the stories, and the futures of children all across our nation.
