Preschool Curriculum Evaluation Research

The Assistant Secretary proposes a priority for Preschool Curriculum Evaluation Research (PCER). The Assistant Secretary may use this priority for competitions in fiscal year (FY) 2003 and in later fiscal years. We take this action to implement rigorous evaluations of preschool curricula that will provide information to support informed choices of classroom curricula for early childhood programs. We intend this priority to focus support on research that will determine, through randomized clinical trials, whether one or more curricula produce educationally meaningful effects on children.
