A Constitutional Right to Preschool?

Abstract

Access to publicly financed preschool looms as the next big issue in education law and policy.State programs, which now exist in forty states and the District of Columbia, have mushroomed over the last decade, complementing the well-established federal Head Start program.Currently, about 25% of all three-and four-year-olds attend publicly funded preschool,' and a bit more than 25% attend private preschool.'This leaves slightly less than half of this age cohort out of preschool altogether.Those left out number in the millions, and they tend to be from relatively poor and less-educated families.'
