The impact of early learning programs on communities is profound. AASA’s Early Learning cohort brings educational leaders from across the country together to review emerging research, discover early learning best practices and plan to facilitate change. Recent research shows the high returns on investment and importance of high-quality early education programs—especially for disadvantaged kids.
"You get about 13 percent per annum," Nobel laureate James Heckman says. "Much higher than the annual return on equities in the U.S. stock market..."Discover the Potential
Discover the power of early education. Explore early learning best practices and research to determine what will make the greatest impact in your community.
Share and Collaborate
Districts from across the country will be represented, from those already working on early education initiatives to others just beginning to plan. Develop lasting relationships with colleagues who are also working on early education, and share knowledge of what works and what doesn’t.
Plan for Success
Participants have the opportunity to work with early learning advocates from across the nation including district administrators and topic experts to gain insight and research to shape actions, advocacy, and responses which promote sustainable and effective early learning efforts, will leave the course and creative or enhanced strategic plans regarding early learning. Participants also gain a network of colleagues who are embracing early learning in their district.
Our 2020 -2021 academic year cohort convenings will be held virtually
on the second Wednesday of each month from 1 – 2 p.m. ET beginning July 8,
2020. Additionally, we will host a Twitter Chat on the fourth Wednesday
