[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay so how much is this aftercare going to cost? Sounds like a way to shift things to parents. The rich kids and then the poor kids (who get it free) get to take art, language, PE. Middle class kids just go to whatever aftercare they can afford or grandma picks them up. I disagree with your assertion that school is too long. Most only run 8-3 anyways. [/quote] I think 8-3 is too long for early elementary. I loved my kids’ morning preschool. They got to learn and play with peers, have lunch at home, play at a playground or in the backyard in the afternoon, and I could cook dinner, get them bathed, and asleep by 7:30. I could then have a couple hours to be with my husband. Those were the days![/quote] My kids are in bed at 8pm on school nights and they're upper elementary. There's no reason you can't do this with a full school day.[/quote]
