E.C.I.A. Chapter 1 KIDS Program: Initiative to Improve the Quality of Chapter 1 Projects.
Bellingham Public Schools, WA.
This report describes an Education Consolidation and Improvement Act-Chapter 1 program for at-risk kindergarten children in four Bellingham (Washington) elementary schools. Children in the program are included in regular kindergarten classes, which meet two full days each week and every other Friday. The children also attend the Kindergarten for Individual Developmental Success (KIDS) program on the remaining two days. Teacher-child ratio is kept low (a maximum of 2 to 12) so that children can receive individual and small group instruction. This program report includes information on (1) the goals of the KIDS program, (2) parent and community involvement, (3) professional training, (4) strong leadership, (5) methods and materials used, and (6) student progress, as well as a description of how program effectiveness was evaluated.
