  ACF Messenger Archive: With Alaska, Now All 50 States Working On Early Learning Guidelines
  Question
 

September 17, 2004

  Answer
 

With Alaska, Now All 50 States Working On Early Learning Guidelines

ACF’s Child Care Bureau is delivering on-site training today in Anchorage Alaska. Fifteen Alaskan Child Care, Head Start, State Department of Education, and University stakeholders are participating in the training.

The goal of the training is to develop statewide early learning guidelines to prepare children for Kindergarten.

With the inclusion of Alaska, all 50 states are now actively working on early learning guidelines, a central element of President Bush’s Good Start, Grow Smart early childhood learning initiative.

The training helps develop high quality, age-appropriate in-depth, research-based early learning guidelines for the early childhood age group.

The Child Care Bureau has now assisted all 50 States with early care and education practices that further the objectives of the No Child Left Behind legislation for children from birth to five years of age.
