This report is an evaluation of a selected New York City Umbrella program funded under a special grant from the New York State Legislature. The program, which served eighty children in two Brooklyn schools, focused on the early identification of learning problems and the remediation of these problems in first and second grade children in each of these schools. Forty children selected from each school were given remedial work in reading and mathematics. Four educational assistants under the supervision of the reading specialists of each school comprised the staff. The specific evaluation objectives of the program were that participants attending fifty percent or more of the scheduled program sessions show statisticaly significant improvement in reading and mathematics skills over the anticipated gain as measured by a comparison of pre and post-test scores using the historical regression formula. The Stanford Early School Achievement Test II and the Metropolitan Achievement Test were used to measure functioning in reading and in mathematics. An analysis of the data yielded mixed results with statistical significance only partly achieved. The results must be regarded as tentative due to the short duration of the program (one semester), the use of two instruments instead of one, and the small sample sizes. Data summaries and a list of recommendations are included in the report. (Author/BS)
