The always contentious issue of full-day kindergarten is back.
At yesterday’s Board of Education meeting, the topic of moving to 5 full days of kindergarten rose up during a discussion of K-5 instructional minutes, and special area scheduling.
There were passionate comments on both sides of the issue.
A 2nd meeting for further Board discussion — including public comment — is set for March 18 (7:30 p.m., Staples High School cafeteria). A vote will be taken April 8.
This is a hot topic, particularly among parents of young children. Click “Comments” to add your thoughts, in advance of the Board of Ed meeting.
