Chapin Hall:
This report shares findings from the first year of the implementation of the Early Childhood Cluster Initiative (ECCI), a full-day pre-kindergarten program in twenty classrooms based on the design of the High/Scope Perry Preschool model in ten elementary schools in Palm Beach County.
In addition to the High/Scope curriculum, a highly regarded educational model that has shown positive outcomes for children, the initiative is characterized by low teacher-child ratios, the use of trained and certified teachers, and an intensive program of activities to strengthen parent involvement.
Classrooms reached their targeted population with enrollment at or near capacity during the school year; and the High/Scope curriculum was being implemented successfully.
