9. Early Childhood
According to NEA, “early childhood education is one of the best investments our country can make.” the HighScope Perry Preschool cost benefit analysis showed a $12.90 return for every $1 invested in early childhood education. This study found that individuals who were enrolled in a quality preschool program earned up to $2,000 more per month than those who were not. Children who were in preschool programs are more likely to graduate from high school, to own homes, and have longer marriages. Other studies have demonstrated that children in quality preschool programs are less likely to repeat grades, need special education, or get into future trouble with the law.

10. Positive Partnerships
Opportunities don't happen. You create them."
-- Chris Grosser
This is what I like about our partnership, is that we have not been afraid to ask what we can do to help each other. We have discussions on the opportunities, and we have been able to make these happen in positive ways for both of our institutions.
