Rhode Island S2207 modifies the state prekindergarten program to allow municipalities participating in the program to accept students from outside their municipality, provided certain conditions are met. The bill also establishes a lottery system for enrollment in the program. Eligible students must be four years old by September of the lottery year and a resident of a community participating in the state prekindergarten program. The lottery considers a family's preferred program, siblings already enrolled, and the economic demographics of the municipality.
