We had it in a school district nearby as an option. The kids had a hard time with it.....mostly because they were not developmentally ready to be in school all day. Financially there's more to it than just hiring another teacher. Space is a huge issue. Most schools are cramped as it is and adding full day kindergarten means another physical classroom in the building.......that takes a huge amount of money. We're talking new schools. What I'd really like to see is money put into education 1-12 and it's not happening. marie I have mixed feelings about all day Kindergarten. We had it in a school district nearby as an option.

I think it's vital that we raise educated children who can compete in an international work force. More and more education in America is lacking behind other countries. We can't simply raise more children to join the military. With education comes options and opportunities. I agree with this.
