ACKNOWLEDGMENTS: The authors would like to express their appreciation to our Project Officer Maria Woolverton and other federal staff at OPRE and the Office of Head Start. We thank the Mathematica team, including Diallo at the Survey Operations Center and all of the Mathematica field and telephone staff who collected the data. The report also benefited from careful editing by Patricia Ciaccio. We are also grateful for the contributions of our partners at Juarez and Associates and the Educational Testing Service. Most of all, we offer our gratitude to the staff, families and children of the 60 FACES 2009 programs across the country, who once again opened their doors and shared their time with us.
