Facts behind the funds


A new EPI book, by Robert G. Lynch, investigates how investments in high-quality pre-kindergarten have significant implications for future government budgets, both at the national and the state and local levels, for the economy, and for crime. Lynch concludes that high-quality pre-kindergarten pays for itself.
Also this NIEER.org study talks about the overlooked benefits of a pre-K education, like Kindermusik classes. This study also suggests that such programs, actually make for better parents, too.
