Early Edge Montana – 32 States Interested in Federal Preschool Development Grants

A majority of states–32 in all–are interested in the U.S. Department of Education’s new Preschool Development Grant program, which is aimed at helping states beef up and expand their early childhood offerings. States had until late last week to submit an "intent to apply" with the department.

The "intent to apply" notices aren’t a prerequisite for an application, which are officially due October 14, but they give the administration some sense of who is interested and who isn’t.

The upshot? States and districts may be weary of competitive grants, but the early childhood education money seems to be garnering a lot of interest.
