The
Governor’s Office of Early Childhood is thrilled that Kentucky is a recipient
of the
federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) Preschool Development Grant - Birth
through Five (PDG B-5) and was funded
$10,620,000. This brings forward so many opportunities for us to support the
Commonwealth of Kentucky, by building a stronger foundation for children and
will increase collaboration between state agencies and stakeholders to promote
stronger overall quality of early childhood care and education.
