In January 2001, Governor Davis established a School Readiness Task Force with the purpose of developing a comprehensive program to better prepare children to enter school ready to succeed. This statewide School Readiness Initiative will be launched by CCFC through targeted School Readiness Programs that demonstrate a coordinated, research-based approach to early care and education in California. The Office of the Secretary for Education is working with the CCFC, State agencies, County Commissions, and other representatives through the School Readiness Task Force and Advisory Committee. Over time, it is hoped that California General Funds will provide significant resources, together with the ‘start-up’ investment of CCFC and County Commission Prop.10 funds and local resources, to ensure sustained School Readiness Programs throughout the State. |
