Principals have options to lead the engagement of at-risk age 3-6 children. If they do nothing, they risk being challenged by the NCLB measures 4-5 years later. Principals have deep smarts and ability to oversee the prediction of individual success at age 3 to 6. They are ultimately responsible (systemic blame in grades 3-6) for children left behind without the required literacy skills.

Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) May 8, 2006 -- Principals have options to lead the engagement of at-risk age 3-6 children. If they do nothing, they risk being challenged by the NCLB measures 4-5 years later. Principals have deep smarts and ability to oversee the prediction of individual success at age 3 to 6. They are ultimately responsible (systemic blame in grades 3-6) for children left behind without the required literacy skills. USA VALUES-CDP has developed donation programs that encourage principals to insist and require giving first things first to the most at-risk children.
The principal's influence is a significant capacity in the battle to keep at-risk children engaged starting at age 3. This emerging requirement is highlighted by the National Association of Elementary School Principals (NAESP) published Leading Early Childhood Communities, (2005 NAESP). http://web.naesp.org/misc/ECLC_ExecSum.pdf
Totally unrelated to NAESP, this logic created a jumpstart for funding urban school innovation at http://principals.printsmart4u.com and calls for the designated giving of a gift portioned from the economic activity of the private sector. That logic is further supported by material, referenced knowledge and a “giving exchange” for principals, teachers, child care providers, and volunteers at http://www.usavalues-character.org/. This set-up creates a limited but ultimate stage for principal's leadership in the area of ethics, early reading skills, economics, responsibility, authority, choices, assets, attributes, messages and storytelling.
USA Values – CDP, Character Development Programs promotes truth; 1) The gift of Early Reading Skills (the FIRST value) is required for all age 3–6 children before they start kindergarten; 2) This individual gift is the key to opportunity, schools and government will never replace the individual in this effort; 3) The gift is the most effective and lowest cost approach to preparing at-risk children for opportunities; 4) The principal is vested in 100% of the children starting kindergarten ready-to-read.
CDP is a 501(C)(3) business expecting to link families, paid volunteers, early childhood learning and faith-base resources, schools, corporations and agencies to first deliver 100% of the children to be ready-to-read starting in kindergarten.
