Asked if they were satisfied to
have their children attend a full
day kindergarten on alternate
days, 479 parents said they were
and 54 said they were not.
Kindergartens were instituted
on a full day basis in many parts
of the county instead of the usual
half day in order to make
economical use of bus
transportation. The survey
revealed that while 155 parents
would have been willing to
provide their own transportation
one way for a half day
>rgarten 370 would not have
. willing.
One hundred and thirty-one
parents indicated a willingness to
serve as volunteer assistants to
kindergarten teachers helping
with lunch supervision or at other
times of the day if requested to
do so next year.
