The Maine Department of Education (DOE) recognizes school administrative units (SAUs) across Maine are navigating new territory and have their days filled, meeting the needs of students, staff, families, and communities. To reduce workload, this year’s annual Pre-K report has been shortened significantly.
With that said, there is still critical information the Maine DOE must gather in order to meet its own reporting requirements. After reviewing other strategies for data collection, this year’s report will contain only a few essential questions. Maine DOE will forgo collecting information about many other aspects of public Pre-K implementation during the 2019-20 school year.
The 2019-2020 Public Pre-K Annual Report is available here and will be accessible between June 1, 2020 and August 31, 2020. Thank you for providing this information which informs policy decisions that support our youngest learners. Questions should be directed to Nicole Madore, Early Childhood Specialist, nicole.madore@maine.gov
