According to an article in the Washington Post, the D. C. Council was encouraged by early childhood ?experts? and some parents to extend pre-kindergarten programs to more 3 and 4 year olds in the District. Early childhood programs ? Head Start, and many others ? have been operating in Washington, D.C. for more than 30 YEARS. During the same time, student achievement dropped to all time lows. The ?experts? SPECULATED that not enough families participated, and WEAK CURRICULA. Well, WHO is responsible for the curricula? So look to the education blob ?experts? as they continue to ask for more money to work with more children while even admitting failure!
