Requires a district charging tuition or fees to develop a sliding fee scale based on family income. Requires the department of education's annual survey of kindergarten programs to include whether a district charges fees or tuition for all-day kindergarten, the amount of fees or tuition charged, and how many of the students for whom tuition is charged are eligible for free and reduced lunch.
