Info

NO PROGRAM laska has provided a supplement to federal Head Start programs since the 1980s, but does not have a state-funded preschool education initiative. State funds for the Head Start program are targeted toward school readiness activities and professional development, both in the interest of improving the program’s quality. In addition, funds are used to provide access to more children and families whenever possible. State funding through Alaska’s Head Start supplement totaled $6,077,200 during the 2007-2008 school year and was available to any federally recognized Head Start program operating in the state. In the 2007-2008 school year, 490 additional children and families were served in Head Start and Early Head Start settings. For fiscal year 2010, the governor has proposed $800,000 more for Head Start funding and $2 million for a pilot prekindergarten program.
