Harvard Study

The research illustrated in this chart was conducted by The Center on the Developing Child, which indicates that children who attend preschool are already ahead in early reading and math skills by the time they enter kindergarten.

The Center on the Developing Child was founded in 2006 on the belief that the vitality and sustainability of any society depend on the extent to which it provides opportunities early in life for all children to achieve their full potential and engage in responsible and productive citizenship.
