Abstract: The Policy and Program Studies Service (PPSS), within the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Planning, Evaluation and Policy Development, contracted with the American Institutes for Research to conduct five case studies on sustaining the positive effects of preschool. The case studies will provide detailed descriptions of five programs that help disadvantaged students in K–3 build on the positive effects of preschool or lead to positive cognitive, social-emotional, and academic outcomes by using policies, programs, and practices related to two key topic areas: (1) preschool and K–3 alignment and (2) differentiated instruction. On-site case studies will include interviews with district officials, principals, Kindergarten teachers, preschool teachers, program funders, and program evaluators.
