The future productivity of the nation’s workforce depends, in large part, on their success. By providing high-quality pre-kindergarten programs that effectively serve all children, especially those from this quickly growing segment of the population, states can improve the economic outlook for both their Latino populations and their citizenry as a whole. Unfortunately, Hispanic youngsters often start school less prepared than white children and do not catch up during the primary grades. The much-discussed “achievement gap” between Latino students and their non-Latino peers actually begins before children even enter kindergarten and persists throughout the K-12 years. However, Hispanic families strongly value education. In fact, a recent survey shows that 97 percent of Latino parents would enroll their child if high-quality pre-k were available in their communities.1 It is imperative that policymakers and advocates understand how Hispanic children fare academically compared to their peers and become familiar with the programs, practices, and policies that promote Latino children’s educational and life success.

  • Catching up to College and Career Readiness
    Catching Up To 1 Introduction College and Career 2 Catching Up in Grades 8–12 Readiness 3 Catching Up Grades 4–8 4 Conclusion Policy discussions about preventing and closing academic preparation gaps should be informed by a realistic view of the difficulty of closing these gaps. Introduction n recent years educators and policymakers have set a goal that students graduate from high school ready for college and careers. However, as a Ination we are far from achieving this goal, particularly for low-income and minority students. For example, in states where all eleventh-graders take the ACT®, only 27 percent of low-income students in 2010 met the ACT College Readiness Benchmark in reading, with 16 percent meeting the Benchmark in mathematics, and 11 percent meeting the Benchmark in science.1 Efforts to improve students’ academic preparation have often been directed at the high-school level, although for many students, gaps in academic preparation begin much earlier. Large numbers of disadvantaged students enter kindergarten behind in early reading and mathematics skills, oral language development, vocabulary, and general knowledge. These gaps are likely to widen over time because of the “Matthew effects,” whereby those who start out behind are at a relative disadvantage in acquiring new knowledge. Policy discussions about preventing and closing academic preparation gaps should be informed by a realistic view of the difficulty of closing these gaps. The more difficult and time-consuming it is to close the gaps, the more important it is to start the process earlier. Underestimating the time and effort required could lead educators and policymakers to underfund prevention efforts and choose intervention strategies that are too little and too late.

Indian Education Alexie attended the tribal school on the Spokane reservation through the seventh grade, when he decided to seek a better education at an off-reservation :', \ all-white high school. As this year-by-year account of his schooling makes clear, he was not firmly at home in either setting.

    Chapter: 4/International Comparisons Section: Assessments International Comparisons: Reading Literacy at Grade 4 In 2016, the United States, along with 15 other education systems, participated in the new ePIRLS assessment of students’ comprehension of online information. The average online informational reading score for fourth-grade students in the United States (557) was higher than the ePIRLS scale centerpoint (500). Only three education systems (Singapore, Norway, and Ireland) scored higher than the United States. The Progress in International Reading Literacy Study systems that had PIRLS reading literacy data at grade 4.2 (PIRLS) is an international comparative assessment that These 58 education systems included both countries and evaluates reading literacy at grade 4.

    Abbott Preschool Program Longitudinal Effects Study: Fifth Grade Follow-Up W. Steven Barnett, Ph.D. Kwanghee Jung, Ph.D. Min-Jong Youn, Ph.D. Ellen C. Frede, Ph.D. (Acelero, Inc.) March 20, 2013 National Institute for Early Education Research Rutgers—The State University of New Jersey www.nieer.org 1 Abbott Preschool Program Longitudinal Effects Study (APPLES): Fifth Grade Follow-Up Executive Summary New Jersey’s Abbott Preschool program is of broad national and international interest because the Abbott program provides a model for building a high-quality system of universal pre-K through public-private partnerships that transform the existing system. The program offers high-quality pre-K to all children in 31 New Jersey communities with high levels of poverty and about a quarter of the state’s children. The Abbott Preschool Program Longitudinal Effects Study (APPLES) assesses the impact of this pre-K program on children’s learning and development based on a cohort of children who completed their 4-year-old year in 2004-05. APPLES previously estimated the impacts of Abbott pre-K at kindergarten entry and second grade follow-up. We found substantial impacts on individually administered assessments of language, literacy, and mathematics at both times. In addition, pre-K was found to reduce grade retention. Previous analysis also indicated that APPLES methodology tends to underestimate impacts. Moreover, as pre-K quality continued to rise after 2004-05, even perfect estimates would underestimate the effect of the program in more recent years. The 4th and 5th grade APPLES follow-up finds that Abbott preschool programs increased achievement in Language Arts and Literacy, Math, and Science, as shown in Figure 1 below.

DESCRIPTORS *Family School Relationship; *High Risk Students;Middle Schools; Parent Participation; *Parent SchoolRelationship; School Culture; Urban Areas IDENTIFIERS New York City Board of Education ABSTRACT Although efforts to support family-schoolpartnerships are a prominent part of strategies for improvingeducation for at-risk students, in communities with wide home/school culturaldifferences, such "partnerships" often operate on a superficial level involving one-waycompliance to school norms. This study examined home-schoolpartnerships in a New York City school, focusing on two families whose childrenattended the same fifth grade classroom in 1996-97. Members of the Ruiz Vegafamily and the Arjay family were interviewed and visited athome several times. Clarissa Ruiz had severe reading problems that were overlooked at schoolbecause she did not call attention to herself. The study maintains that her parents werenot the aggressive advocates that school personnelbelieved necessary because of their own poor school experiences, lack of skills,and the intimidation of parents inherent in school practices.Luther Arjay had considerable difficulty in completing homework. His mother andschool personnel identified the reason for the difficulty and implemented asolution. Mrs. Arjay had a great deal of support from a parent-teacher programsponsored by Lehman College in Luther's fifth grade and was determined toenroll him in the best middle school she could find.

Moore Anthony K. Onwuegbuzie Stacy L. Edmonson John R. Slate Sam Houston State University Citation Combs, J. P., Clark, D., Moore, G. W., Onwuegbuzie, A. K., Edmonson, S. L., & Slate, J. R. (2011). Academic Achievement for Fifth-Grade Students in Elementary and Intermediate School Settings: Grade Span Configurations. Current Issues in Education, 14(1). Retrieved from http://cie.asu.edu/ Abstract Few researchers have addressed student achievement outcomes as a function of grade span configurations for older elementary-aged students. Thus, this study was designed to determine differences between students’ Grade 5 reading and mathematics achievement in elementary schools (K–5) as compared to intermediate schools (Grade 5, 5–6) for 5 academic years. Using archival statewide data, researchers used a rigorous five-step distance-based formula to match elementary schools to intermediate schools on four demographic/school characteristic variables. Current Issues in Education Vol. 14 No. 1 2 Students in K-5 settings attained statistically significantly higher levels of reading and mathematics achievement than did their counterparts, with moderate mean effect sizes of 0.37 and 0.47, respectively.
