Alabama First Class Pre-K has been ranked as the country’s highest quality state pre-kindergarten program, Gov. Kay Ivey announced Wednesday.

Ivey said this is the 14th consecutive year that the National Institute for Early Education Research has ranked the program in the highest spot.

“Alabama continues to lead the nation in high quality pre-K,” said NIEER Founder and Senior Co-Director Steven Barnett, Ph.D. “The state has been committed to expanding access and must continue to invest more resources and expand access so more children benefit from this quality program.”

“Alabama First Class Pre-K is once again proving to be successful in providing a solid foundation for our youngest learners to be successful in school and life,” Ivey said. “From our state’s historic investment in pre-K to Secretary Jeana Ross’s unmatched leadership, Alabama is setting the standard for excellence in early childhood education around the country. We can all be proud that Alabama continues to lead the nation in high quality early childhood education.”

This is the type of forward thinking Alabama is known for these days. This will pay huge dividends in 20 years. Alabama is one of the quickest rising states in the country.

Despite having a higher population, Alabama has a significantly lower GDP than Louisiana

So what is it? The quality of the juice boxes, or soft nap time mats, or the safest most engaging playground equipment?

Is there a link to the actual rankings? I found the report but it doesn't list them in a rank order. Alabama was one of only four states to meet the minimum for all 10 of their categories but it didn't score particularly high on most of them. Sounds like the governor might be putting a little spin on this one (which is fine, it's her job).
