4/22/2019 Group Watch: AL Pre-K Once Again Nation’s Best

Governor Kay Ivey announced that the National Institute for Early Education Research (NIEER) ranks Alabama’s First Class Pre-K as the nation’s highest quality state pre-kindergarten program for the 13th consecutive year. In 2018, the Alabama program received its largest-ever single year funding increase, which expanded access to 32 percent of four-year-olds in the state, while continuing to meet all quality standards benchmarks. Alabama requires all First Class Pre-K lead teachers to have a bachelor’s degree at a minimum and provides salary parity with K-3 teachers.
