| The U.S. Department of Education plays a leadership role in support of early childhood research and practice. This page provides access to a recent report from the Planning and Evaluation Service, Building Strong Foundations for Early Learning: Guide to High Quality Early Childhood Programs, which provides information to local, district, and state educators about hallmarks of high-quality early childhood programs. This page also provides links to evaluations for the Department's Even Start program, to sources of statistical information on early childhood issues, and to the Department's National Institute on Early Childhood Development and Education's Web page.
