| Abstract | This document records testimony from a hearing before the Subcommittee on Early Childhood, Elementary, and Secondary Education that was held to discuss the effectiveness of early childhood education programs. During the hearing, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) testified on their new report which finds the federal government provides support for early childhood services through 44 separate programs, nine of which have an explicit purpose to do so at an annual cost of more than $15 billion. The two largest are the Head Start and the Child Care and Development Block Grant programs. Agencies have done a better job at improving their communications and operating these programs, but that overlap, duplication, and fragmentation among the programs, unfortunately, remains. Statements in this hearing provide examples of how states are finding a better way for children and are helping small businesses innovate and improve their services to their employees. States have recognized that they are better positioned to help parents when it comes to choosing the services that are best for their child. The statements provide information about the positive impacts of state-centered early childhood programs. Additionally, the hearing provides testimony on just how large and cumbersome federal involvement has become. Member statements were provided by: (1) Honorable Jared Polis, Ranking Member, Subcommittee on Early Childhood, Elementary, and Secondary Education; and (2) Honorable Todd Rokita, Chairman, Subcommittee on Early Childhood, Elementary, and Secondary Education. Witness statements were provided by: (1) Cindy Brown Barnes, Director of Education Workforce and Income Security, Government Accountability Office; (2) Pamela Harris, Mile High Montessori Early Learning Centers; (3) Ericca Maas, Executive Director, Close Gaps By 5; and (4) Katharine Stevens, Resident Scholar, Education Policy Studies, American Enterprise Institute. Additional submissions include: Mr. Polis--The Head Start Advantage; and Article: Head Start: Keeping It Real. (ERIC). |
