[QUOTE="DDD, post: 64630, member: 35"] At one time, many years ago in Miami, they had split sessions in order to accomodate more students in existing buildings. It was a fiasco because some kids in one family would start early and get out early and others would begin late and get out late. I've always wondered (and probably will never know!) what would happen if they had alternate schedule signups. It would keep some new schools from having to be budgeted plus it would allow us "late people" a chance to function at our best. My guess is that it would be pretty much an even split if families were empowered in making the choice. by the way, in our city this year they have taken all kindergardens out of three elementary schools and are opening a K center. All the schools are getting three or four more classrooms to use for grades 1 +. All the K teachers will be together at the new center which probably will lead to a better education for the five year olds too. Believe it or not GFGmom's little girl, my youngest grandchild by the way, will be starting this month. Boy time does fly! DDD [/QUOTE]
