WHY PRE-K?

According to a study published by Raise Your Hand Texas – an advocacy group for public education in Texas – children who attend any type of preschool program were more likely to be ready (54% ready) for kindergarten than children who had not attended preschool (38% ready). High-quality pre-K programs, the study said, can lead to significant and sustained gains for young children.

When you walk into a pre-K classroom at any Arlington ISD school, you are going to find busy little people. And what exactly are they doing and learning?
