STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS31695 / H0732
This legislation allows local school districts and public charter schools to use their state appropriation on
children who are age 4. This does not change the school age and does not mandate that any school or district
offer such program. It simply provides flexibility for school boards and their community to decide whether
they feel a kindergarten preparedness program is right for their district.
FISCAL NOTE
This legislation causes no additional expenditure of funds at the state or local level of government, nor does
it cause an increase or decrease in revenue for state local government therefore the legislation has no fiscal
impact.
