This "Indicator of the Month" from the National Center for Educational Statistics presents data on American children's participation in preprimary education. In addition to data tables, key findings are summarized: (1) preprimary enrollment rates for 3-, 4-, and 5-year-olds were higher in 1996 than in 1991--in 1996, 37 percent of 3-year-olds, 58 percent of 4-year-olds, and 90 percent of 5-year-olds were enrolled in preprimary education; (2) in 1996, similar percentages of White and Black 3- and 4-year-olds were enrolled in center-based programs, while their Hispanic peers were less likely to be enrolled; (3) three- and four-year-olds from families with incomes of more than $50,000 were more likely than 3- and 4-year-olds from families with incomes of $50,000 or less to be enrolled in preprimary education; and (4) there was a positive relationship between parents' educational attainment and the enrollment rates of 3- and 4-year-olds; as parents' educational attainment increased, so did enrollment rates of their children.
