» Lynn1969 - Universal Preschool

I believe wholeheartedly that access should be made available to preschool for all who are interested in accessing it. It should be free for those that can document inability to pay and low-cost co-pays should apply to all others.

In my state, public preschool is only available (in most districts) to students who are high-need/underserved.

I also think that we DO need to focus on pre-reading skills in pre-school (as early as 2 or 3). Phonics and letter/number recognition are easily integrated into play, music, art, etc. If we want our children to successfully read by Kindergarten, these early skills are essential.
