Jonetta Rose Barras: D.C.'s education continuum: Adults first

By jonetta rose barras D.C. Council Chairman Vincent C. Gray said last week during a hearing on public schools that he wants to focus on education of children zero to 3 years old. But he’s a year late and thousands of dollars short.

“I am looking to redefine early-childhood learning and development. This effort [coincides] with the thinking that exposure early on enhances a child’s ability to be successful in later schools years,” Gray said.
