Today, we will go back to episode 24 in which we cover the important topic of choosing a preschool. We think the start of the new year is an excellent time to begin your research on what factors are important to you for choosing your child’s preschool. We hope you enjoy this episode and please remember to revisit and review all our other episodes. Happy Holidays!

We are thrilled to have back with us Dr. Meghan McCormick, Research Associate at MDRC and lead researcher on Boston’s Public Pre-Kindergarten Project. Dr McCormick has extensive research experience examining the roles of the home, school and neighborhood contexts on children’s development. Today Dr. McCormick will be speaking with us on the topic of preschool and how it impacts children's growth and development. Some factors we will be examining are choosing a preschool, how to determine environments that best support learning, and what is considered a “high quality” program.
