This report describes an evaluation program for the kindergartens in Williamsburg County, S.C. for 1970-71. Twenty-five kindergartens, serving 587 children in ten elementary schools in the county, were operated on a full day schedule during the 1970-71 school year. Eighty-one percent of the children enrolled were from poor families. The evaluation included pre- and post-tests. On the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, the average gain for 524 children tested was 19 months, with an average lag of 13 months still existing. On the Caldwell Preschool Inventory, the mean percentile advanced from minus 51 to plus 82, a score significantly above the nationally high average percentile of 72. On the Gates-MacGinitie Readiness Test administered in May, 1971, 513 of the 587 children were tested. Of those tested, clearly half indicated readiness for work on auditory-visual skills with a prediction for rapid progress, nearly indicated a readiness to begin coding skills, while the remaining appear to need more time on pre-reading skills. The report concludes that the single most important factor contributing to the success of the program was team teaching. (DJ)
