Pre-Kindergarten

Pre-Kindergarten

Utah’s Pre-kindergarten Entry and Exit Profile (PEEP) is intended to inform various stakeholders, such as parents, teachers, and leadership, on the academic and lifelong learning practices essential for entering and exiting pre-kindergarten students. The information gained from the profile will be used to:

  • Provide insights into current levels of performance upon entry and exit of pre-kindergarten.
  • Identify students who may need early intervention instruction and promote differentiated instruction for all students.
  • Analyze the effectiveness of programs.
  • Provide opportunities for data-informed decision-making and cost-benefit analysis of early learning initiatives.
  • Identify effective instructional practices or strategies for improving student achievement outcomes in a targeted manner.
  • Understand the influence and impact of pre-kindergarten in both the short- and long-term.
