Foundations for School Success is a web-based application used to collect data on Parents as Teachers children, families and educators.  This application reflects the initial phase for data collection intended to connect early learning with the K-12 and beyond Longitudinal Data System in Kansas.  Foundations for School Success aligns with the Kansas School Readiness Framework that defines School Readiness as occurring within the broad context of community, educational environment, family, and the individual child. These four components function as interdependent systems of support that have multi-directional influences. An effective foundation for school readiness involves policy, funding and systems for children that support their ability to thrive and their success in learning environments throughout their lifespan.
