Pre-K Now
Virtual Classroom Tour

Seeing isn't just believing, it's understanding. That is the principle guiding Pre-K Now's virtual tour of a high-quality pre-k classroom. Understanding what to look for is crucial to families investigating their pre-k options. Policymakers, reporters, and even educators can also learn the hallmarks of high quality on a classroom level. Complete with photographs of a real pre-k setting, the tour brings high quality to life.

Family involvement is a key ingredient in high-quality pre-k, but it can be a challenge. On a recent Pre-K Now national conference call, we spoke with experts about proven, research-based methods for getting – and keeping – family members involved.
Video: Briefing on America's Pre-K Movement
Pre-K Now held a briefing for congressional staff, cosponsored by Sen. Hillary Clinton and Sen. Kit Bond, on October 1. Hear what a governor, three superintendents, two directors of early childhood programs, and a national teacher of the year think Congress should do to increase families' access to quality, state-funded pre-k.
Providing voluntary, high-quality pre-k to all children is as much about economic development as it is a tool to improve educational outcomes.
