Dear Ms. Adams,
Thank you for your thoughtful letter on Full Day Kindergarten. Across the country, more and more states are implementing Full Day after finding that it benefits children academically, socially and emotionally. While finding the funding might be a difficult task, our own elected officials and senior Education officials have publicly stated that we will be harming our youngest students if we do not provide them with something greater than 150 minutes of school per day. To knowingly do that is a disservice to our entire community, just as purposefully using scare tactics and unfounded threats about what program will be cut is divisive. The parents of Barrington should be coming together to advocate for all of our students, big and small. To pit us against each other is a tactic that should not be tolerated.
