Turner, W. E.; Riley, Gerald
Education Consolidation Improvement Act (ECIA) Chapter 1 programs were conducted in 29 elementary schools in the Wichita (Kansas) Public Schools during the 1983-1984 school year. Major programs were corrective reading, mathematics, and prekindergarten. Smaller programs for children in neglected and delinquent institutions were conducted. A reduced parent education component was continued. A brief profile of the city of Wichita is presented. It describes the population of the city and its schools. A summary and evaluation report is provided for each of the ECIA Chapter 1 programs conducted. They provide a program description and evaluation, as well as information about the number of participants, attendance, personnel, and budget. The achievement of performance objectives in each program is expressed in normal curve equivalent (NCE) scores. The NCE score was developed for use in Chapter 1 evaluations nationwide. (DWH)
