There are significant disparities in the education, economic well-being, and health of children in the U.S. based on their race-ethnicity and whether or not their
parents are immigrants 1
When it comes to education, all groups of U.S. children were found to be at risk, regardless of their race-ethnicity and whether their parents were born in the U.S.
Rates of reading and math proficiency were critically low across the board; the lowest rates were for Hispanic and black children.
Findings
![Page 5: A Presentation at the 2013 QRIS National Meeting Camille Catlett Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute (NC) Ola Friday NY Early Childhood Professional](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e5f5503460f94b58b52/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Before entering kindergarten, the average cognitive scores of preschool-age children in the highest socio-economic group are 60% above the average scores of children in the lowest
socioeconomic group.2
Disparities in child outcomes between poor, at-risk, and more advantaged children are evident in cognitive, social, behavioral, and health outcomes as early as 9 months and grow larger by 24 months of age.3
![Page 6: A Presentation at the 2013 QRIS National Meeting Camille Catlett Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute (NC) Ola Friday NY Early Childhood Professional](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e5f5503460f94b58b52/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Nearly seven out of every 1,000
pre-kindergarteners are
expelled each year—an
estimated 5,117 preschoolers in
all. The rate is 3.2 times higher
than the national expulsion rate
for children in grades K-12.4
Boys are expelled 4.5 times more than girls; and African-Americans are
twice as likely to be expelled as Latino and Caucasian kids and
more than five times as likely as
Asian-American kids.4

Dual language learners are heavily overrepresented among low-achieving students (within the bottom 5% – 25% of the achievement distribution) and severely underrepresented among high achievers (within the top 5% - 25% of the achievement distribution).5

Children form academic trajectories early in their school careers that tend to be stable and difficult
to change over the course of their schooling 6
Children’s negative perceptions of competence and attitudes become stronger and harder to reverse as children progress through school 7
![Page 9: A Presentation at the 2013 QRIS National Meeting Camille Catlett Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute (NC) Ola Friday NY Early Childhood Professional](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e5f5503460f94b58b52/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Research suggests that both preservice
and inservice EC teacher preparation
have failed to prepare educators who
can effectively teach children for whom
English is a new language or second
dialect, children of color, children of
diverse abilities, and children from
economically marginalized communities 8

A recent study revealed that few states include measures of cultural or linguistic competency of child care programs in their QRIS and these measures sometimes only apply to programs at the highest quality rating. 9

Louise Stoney’s analysis of trends & challenges related to QRIS priorities addressed in the 35 state applications for RTT-ELC (2012) noted the “need for greater cultural competence and workforce diversity” as well as PD and supports in multiple languages.
Only one state was cited for focused attention to children with disabilities.10

Questions for Examining
the Intentionality
of Your Approaches
![Page 17: A Presentation at the 2013 QRIS National Meeting Camille Catlett Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute (NC) Ola Friday NY Early Childhood Professional](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e5f5503460f94b58b52/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Do your policies reflect
your intentionality?
![Page 18: A Presentation at the 2013 QRIS National Meeting Camille Catlett Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute (NC) Ola Friday NY Early Childhood Professional](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e5f5503460f94b58b52/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What messages do your words
convey?
• Family as a broader term
• Person first language (child with a disability instead of disabled child)

New NAEYC Standards for Professional Preparation Programs 11
Significant Changes in the 2009 StandardsThe language all children is revised to read each child or every child to strengthen the integration of inclusion and diversity as threads across all standards. In some cases, the phrase “each child” has been added to a key element of a standard.

Have you established
policies related to cultural and
linguistic diversity?
We believe that . . .
Learning about and respecting differences among people are promoted when children have many opportunities to play and interact with classmates of different racial and cultural backgrounds and varying abilities.

Resources for Building Policies That Support Each Young Child

Cultural/LinguisticResponsiveness
Programs are responsible for creating a welcoming environment that respects diversity, support children’s ties to their families and communities, and promote both second language and preservation of children’s home languages and cultural identities. Linguistic and cultural diversity is an asset, not a deficit, for young children. 12

Ask yourself...
Do your efforts have an explicit and intentional emphasis
on young children who are culturally diverse (includes racial,
ethnic, socio-economic, and other aspects of diversity)?
Do your efforts have an explicit and intentional emphasis
on young children who are dual language learners?
Do your efforts have an explicit and intentional emphasis
on young children with disabilities and inclusion?
Do you have agreed upon definitions of key terms to use in
your work (e.g., cultural competence, inclusion)?
Do you have guiding principles to underscore your shared
commitment to families in all aspects of your work?
Have they been developed collaboratively with families?

Do your family engagement standards and efforts reflect your intentionality?

Effective Models of
Family Engagemen
t
Emphasize a reciprocal relationship (not one-
sided)
Take a partnership approach to children’s
learning, in which both programs and
families collaborate
Emphasize respect for families and a value
for their expertise
Promote two-way communication and co-
planning
![Page 28: A Presentation at the 2013 QRIS National Meeting Camille Catlett Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute (NC) Ola Friday NY Early Childhood Professional](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e5f5503460f94b58b52/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Recent research has found changes in teachers’ negative beliefs about Latino and other immigrant families after having direct contact and experiences with these families in their communities. 17
How are your family engagement efforts growing the capacity of teacher to welcome and support each family?
