School Readiness

Teacher with preschoolers.

Utah’s School Readiness Initiative is designed to improve the quality of preschool and expand access for students who are economically disadvantaged or English learners in quality early learning environments throughout the state.

The Initiative consists of three components and is governed by the Utah School Readiness Board:

  1. Pay for Success transaction, created in 2014;
  2. Becoming Quality grants to support preschool programs seeking to improve quality; and
  3. Expanded Student Access grants to fund seats for economically disadvantaged and English learner students in high quality preschool programs.
