Mom Talk: All-Day or Half-Day Kindergarten? Let's Discuss

Post a comment and share your thoughts about whether seven hours is too long for a 5-year-old to be in school.

This is "Mom Talk," and that's what is going on: We're moms talking.

Today's topic: kindergarten. It's timely (Monday night was kindergarten information night for ). And it's one that recently made to the Board of Education about the merits of all-day kindergarten. Most elementary schools here offer the half-day type.

It's an issue that doesn't necessarily have a right or wrong answer. But whether you're the mom of a 5-year-old who's about to enroll or the parent who has been there, done that, we welcome your thoughts. Post a comment below.
