This joint letter between HHS adn ED discusses a guidance document and recommendations to assist States and their public and private local early childhood programs in preventing and severely limiting expulsions and suspensions in early learning settings. Recent data indicate that expulsions and su spensions occur with regularity in preschool settings, a problematic issue given the well established research indicating that these practices can influence a number of adverse outcomes across development, health, and education.
