Preschool benefits students for years, education committee hears | NOLA.com
The Picard Center carried out a ten-year study looking at whether education provided through LA4, the state's primary preschool program for at-risk 4-year-olds, stuck with its participants for any meaningful amount of time.
The study found that when compared across a host of measurements, LA4 participants scored better than other at-risk children not enrolled in pre-K programs, even through eighth grade.
