I love the picture of these students in the article---happily reading one of my students' favorite stories, "Go Away Big Green Monster"! This article is interesting, since it reveals the layers that prevent all families from equally accessing opportunities for PreK. While not very heartening, it reminds us that even in a city like Chicago, which is considered a leader in early childhood opportunities, we gotta close the access gap!
