arestyrurj-164	Khan, Zaynab; Friedman-Krauss, Allison	Workforce Compensation Policies for Lead Teachers in State-Funded Preschool	2021	10	.pdf	application/pdf	5236	235	56	I explored state preschool parity policies to determine which states have full and partial parity policies in place for lead preschool teachers. Given that prior literature finds an association between teacher compensation and preschool quality, I also explored the association between state preschool programs’ parity policies and NIEER’s 10 benchmarks for pre- school quality.[6] Examples of NIEER’s quality stand- ard benchmarks include supports for curriculum im- plementation, qualifications of lead (at least a B.A.) and assistant teachers (at least a Child Development Associate (CDA)), class size (maximum 20 children) and staff to teacher ratios (1:10 or better), as well as other non-workforce related specifications (such as required health screenings for children).	cache/arestyrurj-164.pdf	txt/arestyrurj-164.txt
