Delaware Governor Touts Early Childhood Education Progress.

The AP (12/20) reports that Delaware Gov. Jack Markell says his state “is making progress in improving early childhood education, particularly for low-income children,” saying that the “proportion of low-income kids in high-quality early learning programs has grown from one in 20 to one in three” over the past three years. The AP notes parenthetically that Delaware won a Race to the Top-Early Learning Challenge grant in 2011.
