    Early math skills are a strong predictor of later school success more so than early reading skills. Research shows that early math abilities predict later achievement in reading and other subjects well into high school. All students, especially those in poverty, benefit from math interventions starting in early childhood as teachers often underestimate children's math abilities. Policymakers should focus on high-quality math curriculum, qualified instructors, learning trajectories, and professional development to support early math learning.
