Well, the real point is that both preK and health are important. Better yet, preK is likely to lead to better health, at least if we believe education leads to better health related choices.
So how do we *get* preK? Indeed, why is it missing at all? As I recall, the goal was to raise enough in tax money to fund partial/full preK scholarships for 900 or so students. Would a mega-buck do that? Shouldn't be hard to raise that, maybe even publically funded. And really, isn't the 30% high-school dropout rate similarly important? I suspect preK might reduce that a bit. I hope. -- Owen
