Effects of a Follow through Program on School Achievement.
Schweinhart, Lawrence J.; Wallgren, Charles R.
Journal of Research in Childhood Education, v8 n1 p43-56 Fall-Win 1993
Tested the effects on achievement of the High/Scope K-3 Curriculum. Found that the High/Scope Follow through children scored significantly better on achievement tests than they would have in regular classes without this program. However, the evaluation was incomplete in that such tests do not assess important High/Scope K-3 Curriculum goals. (WP)
