The new state budget includes the funding the Pittsford Central School District needs to transition to full-day kindergarten.
State Senator Rich Funke is taking credit for pushing through the funding. He says the funding will ensure Pittsford doesn't fall behind the many other districts in the state that have already switched.
The state will give Pittsford 100% of the funding it needs for Year 1, 65% in Year 2 and 35% in Year 3.
