I'm happy to be part of this RAND team gathering important perspectives from pre-K teachers. More data to come from this new teacher survey panel!
We asked 1,368 public school-based pre-K teachers across the country about the materials they use, their instructional resources and planning time, and how their programs align with elementary grades. Read more in my new co-authored report: www.rand.org/t/rra3279-3

And if Harvard is worried, lots of other universities are doing to be in worse shape.
