Both school systems have old schools. The Commissioners <br /> need to be proactive in looking at Pre-K but also remember the old schools, and the renovations <br /> that are needed, when funding for capital needs is discussed. <br /> CHCCS Chair Mia Burroughs asked Margaret Samuels to come up and address the <br /> issue of public Pre-K slots competing with private providers. <br /> Margaret Samuels said that there are now two rulings that say that Pre-K needs to <br /> expand. It was asked that the appeals court go straight to the Supreme Court to get a ruling, <br /> and the Supreme Court said no. Now it hinges on what the legislature decides to do. She <br /> explained how the partnership between public and private entities worked. The majority of the <br /> slots are in the two school systems and administered by the school systems. <br /> Chair Pelissier said that she is interested in knowing if kids that attend public versus <br /> private schools do better in schools. <br /> Linda Hynmen, Program Manager of Orange County Partnership for Young Children, <br /> said that some of the barriers in private childcare facilities are the fact that they do not have <br /> traditional staff to collaborate with or the ongoing professional development that the schools are <br /> able to offer. Regarding requirements, the private providers in Orange County are equal to both <br /> school systems. <br /> Chair Pelissier said that the County could develop a policy going forward to make sure <br /> new schools have adequate capacity for Pre-K. <br />
