FY 2016 Appropriation

The Early Intervention program is a transition from a four-year pilot program for Optional Extended-day Kindergarten. The pilot program ended in FY 2011 (2010-11 school year). The Legislature appropriated $7.5 million in one-time funding in FY 2012 and again in FY 2013 to support the program.

These one-time appropriations continue the funding levels appropriated for each year of the Optional Extended-day Kindergarten pilot program. In FY 2013, the Legislature included an additional one-time appropriation of $2.5 million one-time to support early intervention technology programs. This funding was appropriated to the State Board of Education using the USOE-Initiatives line-item. Please refer to this section for more information.
