The success of the initial year of a special project to see whether specific training and teaching approaches improve how well children do in school readiness resulted in funding for a second year. The project gives eligible child care providers and their instructors an opportunity to earn additional compensation for improving school readiness program outcomes. To be eligible, providers must have at least 30 percent of their birth-5 enrollment made up of children in a school readiness program when applying. The project tracks the results of special training and teacher-child interaction through the school year.
