T.E.A.C.H. Scholarship Program Funding Ends
Your Action Could Stop This
The T.E.A.C.H. Early Childhood® Pennsylvania scholarship program will no longer be funded with any government funding! The recently passed state budget included cuts to child care and legislative leaders targeted state funds for T.E.A.C.H. as one place to make cuts. Federal funds were also cut in the budget and the Governor’s office decided to partially absorb those cuts by eliminating all the federal funding for T.E.A.C.H.
Long story short – T.E.A.C.H. scholarships are gone!
The Governor can change this and make good on his commitment to early childhood education. His office is responsible for the decision to cut federal funds and they can reverse it.
