AI Summary

This bill aims to establish a universal pre-kindergarten education program for 4-year-old children (and potentially 3-year-olds) residing in "gateway municipalities" in Massachusetts. The program would be developed and implemented by the state's Board of Education and Department of Education, and would focus on addressing the specific needs of children in these communities.
