Unlocking Potential: Leveraging PreK Data for Kindergarten Success
Wednesday July 29, 2026 9:00am - 10:15am EDT
Most Henrico County elementary schools welcome former Early Learning Preschool (ELP) students who already possess a full year of foundational academic and social-emotional knowledge. As the division prioritizes success in primary grades, these prepared learners represent a significant yet often untapped resource for school growth. This session invites leaders to analyze PreK data trends and observe how early intervention accelerates long-term achievement. Participants will leave with a strategic plan to leverage their specific student data, ensuring Kindergarten teams are equipped to build upon this established momentum.
