Canton Superintendent Suggests Full-Day Kindergarten

Canton Superintendent Kevin Case has suggested that the school system implement full-day kindergarten for the next school year.

The Board of Education is expected to vote on the measure Dec. 9, according to the Hartford Courant.

The current system offers a half free-day of kindergarten and parents can pay $2,500 for an extended day. The new proposal is free full-day and an option for half-day as well.

Farmington’s school board recently voted to implement full-day kindergarten and a number of other school systems across the state have already done so.
