Birth to 3 Program: County Performance Data

Federal rules require that the state report each year on the how well the state is doing under the State Performance Plan. An annual performance report is submitted each year by February to the Secretary of U.S. Department of Education. It is also made public.

Each year, Wisconsin must also publicly report on how well each county Birth to 3 program is doing. Performance is judged on the federal indicators as given in the annual performance report.

You can also view and compare the county data reported each federal fiscal year.
