    TAKE ACTION                                        Here’s what the Texas legislature can do to keep public schools strong:


      • Restore funding for Prekindergarten Early Start Grant                          • Reward high-performing Pre-K programs with Formula
        that allows school districts to offer full-day Pre-K.                            Funding for full-day Pre-K for qualifying 4-year olds.

      • Restore funding for the School Readiness Certification                            for their full-day Pre-K program under the School Readiness
        System, which measures quality Pre-K programs.                                    Certification System for two years in a row, reward the district
                                                                                          with formula funding. Give these high-performing programs funds
