According to the annual survey of state-funded preschool programs, “West Virginia is currently ranked third nationally for the percentage of four year olds enrolled in pre-K, stepping up two notches from last year. The state also ranked in the Top 10 for percentage of three year olds enrolled in state-funded preschool. In addition, West Virginia ranked 10th in the nation in terms of spending per child in pre-K, moving up from 13th last year.
