Massachusetts weighs plan to extend public kindergartens statewide
Massachusetts officials debate a plan to extend public kindergartens by 1973 to 50 000 children without access. Some towns resist home rule objections while advocates cite early education benefits and rising costs. The plan anticipates 6 million yearly for preprimary setup through 1973 and 55.4 million for construction with state share around 24.9 million.
