Pre-kindergarten
Community Resources
Assembly Bill (AB) 130* (2021–22) established an early education initiative to expand access to classroom-based prekindergarten programs offered by school districts, county offices of education, or charter schools. The collaboration among county offices of education, local educational agencies, state preschool programs, expanded learning programs, community partners, and families is essential to ensure a clearly articulated preschool through third grade early education system for all students.
​
*As modified by AB 167 which revised the methodology for allocating base, enrollment, and supplemental grants to local educational agencies.
