"The Columbus school district now has an idea of how many problems preschoolers have that could cause them to struggle to learn when they get to kindergarten." Jennifer Smith Richards reports for the Columbus Dispatch.
"We have our work cut out for us to reconnect with those children," said Cindy Sturni, director of early-childhood initiatives for the United Way of Central Ohio. The preschool screenings were conducted over the past year through Columbus Kids: Ready, Set, Learn, a program run by the United Way. The group commissioned the Voinovich School of Leadership and Public Affairs at Ohio University to evaluate its first year." Richards reports.
