Description: Seven Things Policy Makers Need to Know about School
Readiness was developed by staff at the Child and Family
Policy Center in response to requests for basic school
readiness information for new legislators. This toolkit organizes the information that policy makers need to know—both to make the case for investments in school readiness, and to develop the programs, practices, and policies to achieve school readiness. The toolkit includes 7 separate briefs that can be copied and distributed, one on each point. It also provides an annotated, 20-minute PowerPoint presentation on the topic (available for download from the SECPTAN website at www.finebynine.org) and offers recommendations for how to customize the presentation for a state or community by adding state-specific or community-specific information.
