Case Study: The Essential 0-5 Survey in Texas
How a Head Start Grantee Boosted CLASS Scores The Child Care Associates (CCA) team in Texas noticed plateauing CLASS scores after a period of gains. By implementing Start Early’s Essential 0-5 Survey, the team committed to campus-level improvement and engagement of families and staff. Now, re-energized CCA staff share a common framework and are focused on making proactive, positive changes in their daily practice. They also have crucial data from families and staff that allow them to target inequities and make improvements.

A Call to Action to Advance Racial Equity in Home Visiting pushed our team’s thinking on how to bring anti-racist practices to our home visiting work. We were particularly moved to consider how we can simultaneously meet individuals’ needs in the home while we work to address root causes through systems and structures.
