Yes. About 90% to 95% of the children coming from Early Childhood go on to their home school’s kindergarten program with varying levels of support. The investment at this early level has an incredible payback. Some children no longer need Special Education services at all as a result of Early Childhood education. One study indicated that for every $1 spent at the Early Childhood level, $7 was saved on services needed in the future.
