      California has spent billions of dollars on a free universal preschool program available to all eligible 4-year-olds in the state. However, there are no official plans in place from the state to evaluate the success of the program, also known as transitional kindergarten, or TK. LAist Early Childhood Senior Reporter Elly Yu joins Imperfect Paradise to discuss why experts say research is needed, who is accountable for TK’s success, and what California can learn from other states with similar programs.

      Read more of Elly’s reporting on California's TK program at LAist.com.

      California is not tracking whether its multi-billion dollar public preschool program is working. So how do we know if it’s helping or hurting students?
