Abstract	This Race to the Top - Early Learning Challenge (RTT-ELC) annual performance report for the year 2014 describes Delaware's accomplishments, lessons learned, challenges, and strategies Delaware will implement to address those challenges. At the end of Year Three of the Early Learning Challenge Grant, Delaware continues to make significant progress in grant implementation across all four of its Early Learning Challenge Goals. Early learning system growth and ongoing development is a state priority guided by the Delaware Early Childhood Strategic Plan. Early Learning Challenge goals are integrated into the broader scope of the strategic plan which guides and aligns the work of state agencies, the Quality Rating and Improvement System (QRIS)/Delaware Stars, early learning programs across the state, community partners, advocates and business leaders--all focused on building a system that ensures great starts for all of Delaware's young children. The number of early learning programs participating in the state's quality rating and improvement system has grown from 134 to 478, an increase of 250%, with 59% of participating programs rated in the top quality tiers, exceeding the target for performance. In addition, Delaware has exceeded its performance target for moving children with high needs into Delaware Stars programs, with 79% of children with high needs (11,984) served in Stars programs in 2014. Delaware also exceeded its performance measure for serving children with high needs in Stars top tier programs, with 58% of children with high needs (8,747) served by Star 3, 4, and 5 programs. Success in these and other key grant performance measures clearly indicate that the grant has positive system change, directly benefiting Delaware's earliest learners and their families. Delaware's ongoing, comprehensive commitment to building an early learning system of the highest quality for its most at-risk young children and their families is reflected in the accomplishments of the Early Learning Challenge Grant's goals. Strong partner organizations who are key stakeholders have taken a very active role in implementation of the Challenge grant initiatives, competing successfully to become the lead partners implementing initiatives and supports.
