Lindsay Witt raised a pertinent question regarding the prevalence of full-day kindergarten, suggesting that a half-day option would facilitate a gentler transition for young children.
Witt expressed disbelief that five-year-olds are placed in full-day school, questioning why their days are as long as those of older children and advocating for a shorter school schedule.
Many parents echoed Witt's sentiment, with some sharing their experiences of shorter kindergarten days, while others pointed out that full-day kindergarten meets working parents' childcare needs.
Commenters highlighted the exhaustion that young children face with full-day schedules, emphasizing the mental and physical toll it takes on them when adapting to such long school days.
