On the February "Start a new post" Kathy Fine wrote:

Interesting piece on the inadequacies of Head Start. We should be learning from the mistakes made and incorporate the best practices on the documented successful HS programs. This seems to justify the conclusions that Geoffrey Canada makes in his book "Whatever it Takes", that Head Start will not be effective if we do not address the lack of cognitive development in the very early years (0-3).
