Maines shift of special education services for three- and four-year-olds to local school districts aims to streamline kindergarten transitions. The state-run Child Development Services will focus on early intervention for babies and toddlers. Pilot programs have shown strong benefits, such as improved family connections and better school preparation, but challenges remain, including staffing, transportation, and classroom redesign. The state is providing grants and support to over 180 new classrooms.
