Well, this is interesting news on the heels of the last report regarding preschool expulsions.  It is great to see that someone feels preschool should not break the bank for working families.  You’d think that these opinions would come from the coasts, but apparently governors in the South feel very strongly about preschool for young children.  More power to them---we’ll probably see their high schools on the cover of Newsweek in the next 15-20 years.

The Pre-K Now program released a report giving kudos to 20 governors who are in favor of increasing funding for pre-K programs.  This is nice to hear, especially in view of the last report regarding preschool expulsions, and the need for behaviorial counselors.  As a parent, I would like to know that the teachers of my preschool-aged children are highly qualified, which requires more funding from either tuition or the government, or possibly both.
