In kindergarten, students tested in 2023 were about 2 percentage points less likely to begin school at grade level in both math and reading, compared with 2019

2%....

Which is probably because they missed out on Pre-K and just highlights how our education system isnt enough anymore. If there's a real benefit to Pre-K (there is) then let's stop making it something that costs a bunch of money and is hard to get into.

Let's just make it part of the public school system

The difference in reading comprehension / writing skills between Kindergarteners who went to preschool and who did not is usually night and day imo.
