Click on the post for the article of Gina Duwe on the 4 Yr. Old Kindergarten issue that will be discussed on Monday night at the Evansville School Board meeting.
One of the key elements of the discussion will be the concept of "readiness."
This concept has been talked about for ages. The issue will be discussed by parents in greater depth than the phrase "level playing field " ------the traditional unprecise phrase that is devoid of definition and yet the solutions for which abound.
Plan on attending the Monday night school board meeting, or at least tune in to The Evansville Observer for the audio highlights of the discussion.

I thought 5 year old K was the point of readiness. Now 4 then 3 maybe in a few years I can package my kid at birth.
ReplyDeleteOn a more serious note homw many kids are we talking about 10 - 20 that may need this readiness. Is it really worth it?
