No. While some states are exploring this further and working to make it more available for families, it is not necessary. You need to do what works for your child and your family. Preschool and working with your kid at home (or having a family member or tutor work with them) regarding academic, social/emotional, and life skills are great pre-kindergarten options, too. Only you (and your partner, if applicable) know what is best for your child.
