AI Summary
This bill amends the revised school code to require the Michigan legislature to appropriate at least $610 million annually, starting in the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, for Great Start Readiness Programs (GSRP). GSRP is a state-funded preschool program designed to provide early childhood education to four-year-old children from families with lower incomes or those facing specific challenges. By mandating this minimum funding level, the bill aims to ensure consistent and substantial financial support for these critical early learning programs, which help prepare children from disadvantaged backgrounds for kindergarten and future academic success. The funding will be allocated through the state school aid act, specifically referencing section 32d, which outlines the details and implementation of the Great Start Readiness Programs.
