establishing a kindergarten literacy readiness program.

HB 671 establishes a statewide kindergarten literacy readiness program for children aged 4-5 who are not yet enrolled in kindergarten. The program uses evidence-based educational technology (delivered via home or center-based settings) to develop early reading, math, and science skills, with mandatory family engagement. It requires the New Hampshire Department of Education to provide the program (subject to funding) and the Department of Health and Human Services to notify eligible families participating in FANF or WIC programs about the initiative. The bill mandates annual reports tracking participation, equipment access, program usage, and comparisons of kindergarten readiness outcomes between participants and non-participants.
