Superintendent Dr. Sandra Brower will be presenting a report on the full day kindergarten pilot program at Tuesday’s Board of Education at 7:30 p.m. in the high school Lecture Hall.
The district unveiled its full day kindergarten pilot in July. The program began in September with 72 students selected through a lottery.
Parents showed concern, stating that the pilot program puts the district on a “slipper slope” as it offers a select few a better education.
