After reading, An Early Start at Education for All, I am more aware of the financial implication on education programs. Adela Moreno forms an argument on how many families do not qualify for Early Start programs because they are only targeted towards families with poverty status. The argument is supported by the author’s own personal experience with the Early Start program. Although it takes away from the authors credibility when she says how she had to cheat the system. To make this argument stronger the author could of added more background of who can qualify for these programs. Reading the embedded article from the Statesman did not show any evidence to support these programs either. Moreno makes a strong point that the government needs to focus on these programs. With the House voting to replace No Child Left Behind, there needs to be a new standard created. The embedded article defines what how each political party feels on education. Positively I agree with Moreno, that standardized testing should be done away with. Overall this is a great argument that just needs more factual evidence. Focusing on the early fundamentals of a child’s education is the start to a bright future.
