“…Given that the benefits of ECE participation for language outcomes may only be effective at comparatively highquality levels (Zaslow et al, 2016), disparities in access to higher quality preschools limit their potential impact for DLLs. At the same time, it is well established that for DLLs entering preschool early has stronger positive effects on their majority language outcomes by school-age compared to monolingual children, even when controlling for classroom quality (Ebert et al, 2013;Ertanir, Kratzmann, Frank, Jahreiss, & Sachse, 2018;Kohl, Willard, Agache, Bihler, & Leyendecker, 2019;Yazejian et al, 2015). DLLs who attend ECE earlier may also experience larger long-term academic benefits (OECD, 2016).…”
