State Releases 10-Year Plan for Early Learning
Washington's new statewide early learning plan, which was released on Sept. 1, will help give more children that great start in life and school.
The plan is the roadmap for building a comprehensive early learning system in Washington over the next decade. It is designed to better coordinate all of the great work already happening for children and families and guide policy, funding and ongoing work by organizations and agencies. And it shows how we all make a difference in the lives of children.
Watch this Learning for Life as we talk with Dr. Bette Hyde, director of the state Department of Early Learning, and Nina Auerbach, president and CEO of Thrive by Five Washington, about the new statewide early learning plan, what big changes are in store to help young children and families in Washington state and what role parents and families play in the plan.
Learning for Life airs every Wednesday on KING 5 Morning News on KONG 6/16 TV between 8:15 and 8:30 a.m.
