Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the education law, in relation to the universal full-day pre-kindergarten program; and to repeal subdivision 4 of section -ee of such law relating thereto
AI Summary
This bill amends the education law to repeal the provision that allowed the New York State Department of Education to develop a plan for distributing available pre-kindergarten slots in oversubscribed regions. It also sets the subscription amount for the universal full-day pre-kindergarten program in regions other than New York City to be sufficient to provide slots for all qualifying programs, rather than having a fixed amount. The purpose of the universal pre-kindergarten program is to incentivize and fund innovative pre-kindergarten programs, and the Department of Education will evaluate and fund applications based on merit and factors such as student and community need.
