School Beat: Finance: Supr. Heid Carvin announces: Half Day Kindergarten on chopping block

(Audioblogger pending.)

At Monday night's Evansville School Board Finance Committee meeting, Supr. Carvin indicated she would ask the full board to vote on the elimination of the half-day kindergarten option at the OCTOBER board meeting.

Supr. Carvin indicated that many of the folks who were for the half day were upset with the fact that there was such late notice of the proposed change. She indicated that the current enrollment was 12. Mr. Hatfield noted that the Finance committee could make a recommendation on the basis of the numbers of state aid and then the full board could take the interest of the community or "politics" in consideration at that meeting. Supr. Carvin said that there were just a small number of parents who wanted this program and it was not wanted by the larger community.
