"Our most
fundamental commitment needs to be to the very youngest Washingtonians. We know the
greatest untapped asset in the state is the potential of a 3- and 4-year-old. The
latest neuroscience research at the University of Washington shows that at this
age, children’s minds have a tremendous capacity for learning. Early
learning is the best investment we can make in our future.”
- Governor Jay Inslee, 2015 State of the State address, delivered January 13, 2015
