Florida’s pre-K program meets fewer “quality standards” than almost any other state-funded preschool program, according to an annual national report released this morning. The Sunshine State also “stands out” for the limited amount of money it spends to educate its 4-year-olds, the report said.
The annual “State of Preschool” report ranked Florida 3rd in the nation for pre-K enrollment but 39th for funding (and that’s out of 42 states and the District of Columbia that have public pre-K programs).
