Universal preschool is a proposal that would use funding from the federal government to provide school to children before they reach Kindergarten. In the current U.S. public education system government funded school is guaranteed to all children from kindergarten to 12th grade. number of U.S. states use state tax revenue to fund part-time and full-time preschool for children between the ages of 3 and 5. Half of the states that offer pre-K programs limit enrollment to low-income children. Proponents that preschool is too expensive for most American families and according to The Chicago Chi…

No kids that young still need to be with their mom
@Ovrwatch222yrs2Y
No, and all education should be privatized with minimal government regulation.
@924MYCK2yrs2Y
Yes, and funding should come from both national and local governments to help improve our preschools as well as our education system. Also, create more programs to provide assistance for low-income families and children.

Increase the child tax credit instead, and introduce a negative tax for struggling families.
@93DHP4B2yrs2Y
No, funding should be provided at the district level.
@92YHQCV2yrs2Y
Yes, as long as parents also have the option to send their child to private school that will give them the help that they need.
@8ZSR5NL2yrs2Y
Yes, funding should come from both national and local governments to help improve our preschools as well as our education system, and create more social programs to provide assistance for low-income families and children.

Yes, funding should come from federal, state and local governments to help improve our preschools, and the government should provide assistance for low-income families and children. But parents should also have the option to send their child to either private or public schools.

@heatherdvdprincess2yrs2Y
Yes, because it will be free daycare for the poor and can help them do better in school and thus be less likely to perpetuate poverty over the generations. However, compulsory education should not start until 7 years old, like in Finland, as this corresponds with child development milestones which indicate that the first 6 years of life are most important and are best spent with parents (loving parents).

Yes, and funding should come from federal, state and local governments to help improve our preschools. Also, the government should provide assistance for low-income families who have financial need, and provide care for children who may need extra resources, while parents should have the option if they want to send their child to either private or public schools.
Deleted2yrs2Y
Yes, but allow funding from states and local districts to provide assistance to those that have financial need (e.g. families that are both working, low-income), and parents should have the option if they want to send their child to whatever school they want.

Yes, it should be offered for low and middle-income families who can't afford it. But allow funding from states and local districts as well while doing the same decision at the federal level, and parents should have the option if they want to send to send their child to private schools.
@8YCMCFZ2yrs2Y
Yes, but focus on underfunded communities
@88NZKDZ2yrs2Y
Yes, for now. But in the future, the education system should be radically reformed to be syndicated and controlled by the educators in the industry.
Deleted2yrs2Y
Yes, but funding should be left from state/local governments and communities and make sure it is funded properly. It should also be funded only for low-income families that can't afford it. Also, parents should have a choice to send their child to public or private schools, or to keep them homeschooled.
@8XQ89TN2yrs2Y
No, but allow students with low income a chance to still go to preschool

@8XNT9ZQ2yrs2Y
No, but businesses with over 100+ employees should be incentivized to provide this for employees. Research has shown over a period of 50 years that preschool benefits children and families.
@8WP75PY2yrs2Y
Yes, but pay off National Debt first.
@8S2LJ243yrs3Y
Yes, and privatize all education
@8VL9DP43yrs3Y
No, it should be funded by the state for what they deem necessary because not everybody goes to preschool.

Yes But it should be given to the State Governments.

No, allow a child to remain at home with a parent or grandparent when possible or use state funding to make preschool available for parents who choose this as an option.

@8Q6C4Y43yrs3Y
No, this would be expensive, and the government already does enough with education
@8PZ7LSP3yrs3Y
Yes, but funding should come from states, and only if they make more than they spend
@8PMF46F3yrs3Y
Regardless, education should be run at the state level. However, I do believe state governments should provide universal pre-school, but that is for each to decide.
@8P8TVTS3yrs3Y
Yes, if and only if they can ensure a maximum of a 10:1 ratio of students and teachers.
@8NXSCW23yrs3Y
Yes, only if parents decide to use the program and after the public school system has been overhauled

Nationalize all educational institutions (e.g. schools, colleges, universities, etc) in the U.S. and ensure free and public education, where a High School diploma or a GED shall be one of the requirements to attend a college or university
- K-4, 5-8, 9-12 grade levels
- Monotheistic religious education should be introduced (or reintroduced) as a school subject
- Socially useful school subjects should take priority over other subjects, while any non-socially useful class subjects shall be optional (in the form of electives)
- By the U.S. law, every public school must be required to establish 20 as the limit on the number of students per classroom
