Studies show that children who attend quality preschool read earlier and learn faster. But only 20% of our children actually go to quality

Prop 82 gives a free, high quality preschool education to every four-year old in California. It provides trained, credentialed teachers in every classroom, more parental involvement, and strict accountability and enforcement to ensure that every dollar is dedicated to preschool.

Prop 82 will help more children read and learn, which will strengthen our schools and improve education for all our kids.
