Tell Governor Nathan Deal and the Georgia legislature that Georgians want universal preschool for our children!
Why is this important?
Currently, public preschool in Georgia is on a lottery system, parents of four-year-old's sign up and hope their child gets accepted to their local preschool class. If the students do not get picked, parents have no choice but to enroll them in costly private programs or wait until their child can start kindergarten. Preschool is so very developmentally beneficial to children, children with the luxury of attending preschool will enter kindergarten worlds ahead of children who have not had that luxury. Universal preschool will ensure that all students have this benefit and enter kindergarten on a level playing field.
