As the URJ and ECE-RJ continue their talks and work about universal Pre-K, we here in GA are doing the same. GA’s Pre-K is funded through lottery dollars and classes of 20 children are funded at sites that are approved. Parents must enroll their child in one of these specific GA Pre-K classes. Programs that have a faith component may not apply for Pre-K funding/classes. The directors in Atlanta’s Jewish preschools are working towards resolution to be able to receive Pre-K funding since faith based primary and secondary schools are able to receive state tax dollars that families have re-allocated.
