- Summary:
-
This brief report cites data that indicate the need for increased efforts to achieve the first of six National Education Goals proposed by the President and the Governors in 1990. The first goal states that "By the year 2000, all children in America will start school ready to learn." The grade given to goal 1 is "incomplete" because of insufficient data. Only half of all children with disabilities ages 3-5 attend preschool programs. This conclusion is based on unpublished tabulations from the Early Childhood Component of the 1991 National Household Education Survey. Services for children age 5 or younger who have special needs are being expanded yearly in view of estimated increases in numbers of children needing services. In 1990-91 approximately 400,000 children with disabilities, ages 3-5, participated in preschool special education progams and approximately 200,000 infants and toddlers, ages 0-2 years participated in early intervention programs. The report briefly outlines services available for young children with disabilities, the number of children receiving services and their geographic distribution, parent involvement, nutritional and health needs, and the need for additional information.
