Alternatively, experimental evidence for the effectiveness of Head Start (federally-funded early education for children from low-income families) on Latino children\'s school readiness is less strong. First year findings from the Head Start Impact Study show that Rolapitant Latino children who entered Head Start at 3-years of age scored higher than those in the control group on pre-reading, vocabulary, and pre-writing measures in English (Puma, Bell, Cook, Heid, & Lopez, 2005). However, these results did not hold for the Latino children who entered Head Start at 4-years of age; just one significant impact emerged in the area of child health. Additional evidence from a morphological convergence RCT of Early Head Start (EHS; comprehensive services for children 0- to 3-years of age, which were delivered through home visits, childcare, case management, parenting education, health care and referrals, and family support) shows positive but not significant effects on Latino children\'s receptive vocabulary scores at 3-years (Love et al., 2003). At the 5-year and fifth grade follow-up waves, the effect of EHS on Latino children outcomes remained non-significant (Love et al., 2013 and Vogel et al., 2010).
