Description: In this report, the Early Education Initiative at the New America Foundation provides a review of the state of preparation among teachers who receive a bachelor’s degree to teach young children in pre-kindergarten, kindergarten, and the early grades of elementary school. The report shows that today's system is not set up to ensure teachers in pre-kindergarten through the third grades are well-prepared to work with young children.
