Title I and early childhood programs: a look at
investments in the NCLB era.
This paper explores the wide range of ways in which school
districts are using funds from Title I of the No Child Left Behind Act
for early education through kindergarten and examines how implementation
of the NCLB has affected those investments. It also makes
recommendations for local educational agencies interested in creating
Title I-funded early education programs or thinking about how to sustain
these types of investments in the face of policy and funding challenges.
