Food for Thought: Early Childhood Education

It was just announced that North Carolina is one of the states to recieve RttT - Early Learning Challenge. (http://www.wwaytv3.com/2011/12/16/north-carolina-wins-race-to-the-top%E2%80%94early-learning-challenge-grant)

Conversations that need to be happening around the state and at our dinner tables.  How important is early childhood education?  Is this what is needed to help level the playing field for students of poverty?  Should we have universal preschool?  Should the funding be the responsiblity of local, state or federal government?
