Massachusetts S264 creates a grant program to support high-quality pre-kindergarten education. The Department of Early Education and Care will award grants to eligible school districts and collaborations based on readiness and need. Readiness requires an approved preschool expansion plan, while need is determined by the percentage of high-need students. Grant recipients must implement plans that include teacher qualifications, class sizes, and family engagement tactics. The commissioner will evaluate program effectiveness annually and provide technical assistance for replication.
