American Falls preschool scholarships
United Way of Southeastern Idaho led a collaborative that provided preschool scholarships for children in American Falls, ensuring that those with limited financial resources have the opportunity and access to high quality early learning programs. The initiative surpassed seat goals and kindergarten readiness scores skyrocketed above the state average. In 2022-23, United Way awarded $46,000 in preschool scholarships and expanded educational opportunities to 62 students, leading to an additional 4% increase in school readiness scores.
