Abstract	The Quality Early Education System (QEES) program is based on a vision where all children arrive at school with the benefit of high-quality positive life experiences that matter for brain development in all of the areas that play critical roles in school success. This vision is greatly needed in Hillsborough County, Florida, where data from 2018 indicate that only 50% of children arrive ready for school (Sokol, 2018). The key strength of the QEES program lies in its ambitious commitment to dramatically impact the quality of children's experiences prior to school at a level that can significantly improve children's chance for school success. This Year 1 report tracks the progress of the initial objectives set by the QEES program using measures and data developed and collected by the QEES team, led by Program Director Marni Fuente. The report presents each objective with an analysis of the breadth and effectiveness of the services provided. Breadth refers the quantity of the objective, whereas effectiveness refers to the quality of the objective. To be considered a success, the breadth and effectiveness targets of each objective need to be fulfilled. Overall, the QEES program demonstrated impressive success for both breadth and effectiveness targets. For 6 of the program's 9 objectives, the breadth and effectiveness goals met and exceeded, and in many cases the target was greatly exceeded. Not all of the targets were reached, but even in those cases the results illustrate large numbers of participants served effectively.
