Attention Parents of NYC Preschool students: 21,440 new spots will open up for Fall, 2014 now that De Blasio got $300 million in funding for free kindergarten Classes in NYC. 20,000 more seats will open up in 2015. Here is the note I received about it. Be sure to check out those links if you are looking for pre-K in the City!
