Early Childhood Education The Blueprint establishes a significant expansion of free full-day prekindergarten to low- income families so that all children can begin kindergarten ready to learn. Prekindergarten will be free for all 3- and 4-year-olds whose parents meet income eligibility requirements and will be available on a sliding scale to all other 4-year-old students. To support such expansion, the Blueprint will provide funding to public and community-based early education programs that meet rigorous quality standards. Expansion will be an ongoing process, as it requires adjustments to early education preparation programs, physical and staff capacity increases, and demonstration of quality and continuous improvement as measured by a quality rating system.
