The Fresno County Superintendent of Schools will be allocated $35 million to support preschool, transitional kindergarten, kindergarten, and grades one to three, and augment the work of the existing Early Math Initiative (EMI). Fifty million dollars ($50,000,000) will be allocated to a lead COE to support a consortium that will provide professional learning and support family engagement in mathematics, science, and computer science for grades four through twelve, inclusive. The lead COE will partner with the EMI and collaborate with other state-sponsored and nonprofit mathematics, science, and computer science educator training initiatives to build a coherent and comprehensive system of statewide support for all children from birth to grade twelve, inclusive.
