During the 54-, 72-, and 84-month assessments, data are collected from preschool (if the child is enrolled in any daycare setting), kindergarten, and first-grade teachers, respectively. Teachers complete questionnaires about child behavior, peer relations, instructional practices, and school demographics via a secure website. The children's school records are collected at the 72- and 84-month assessment to gauge reading performance.
