Description:
This chapter argues that federal and state policymakers have created a framework of accountability policies with key structural defects and shortcomings. It then discusses the extent to which proposed reforms in early childhood governance are likely to foster progress toward a more coherent, effective, and efficient accountability system for birth-3rd grade care and education, concluding that current proposals for reforming early childhood governance are likely to generate only incremental solutions to our fundamental accountability challenges.
