Summary

For over two decades, the Head Start Family and Child Experiences Survey (FACES) has been an invaluable source of information on the Head Start program and the children and families it serves. FACES 2019 extends a previously conducted data collection to a new sample of Head Start programs, families, and children. Mathematica and its partners, Juárez and Associates, Educational Testing Service, and consultants Margaret Burchinal and Martha Zaslow, developed instruments and data collection procedures to assess the school readiness skills of 2,260 children and survey their parents and Head Start teachers in fall 2019 and spring 2020 and conduct observations in Head Start classrooms and survey Head Start staff in spring 2020 and spring 2022. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, spring 2020 child assessments and classroom observations were canceled while surveys of parents and staff continued. The pandemic and a heightened interest in the Head Start workforce brought a shift in approach and focus to spring 2022 data collection activities. As a result, those activities are not described here and instead are listed under NCT06512740.
