Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
The purpose of this bill is to streamline and enhance early childhood education and childcare services in West Virginia by integrating the existing Head Start, West Virginia Department of Education's Pre-K, and Birth to Three programs into a unified, state-administered system.
This legislation, in its current form, is too vague for the West Virginia Department of Education (WVDE) to formulate an accurate answer. We do not know how many kids are in the Birth to Three program. Additionally, Head Start is a federal program; therefore, moving it from the Department of Human Services to WVDE may create issues with federal funding.
