370,000 additional instructional hours for kindergarten!

Pre-school is not the only KPS area of early childhood progress. We now offer full-day kindergarten in 14 of our 17 elementary schools. In the 2007-2008 school year, we had only 176 students in full-day kindergarten. In the 2008-2009 school year, we increased to 883 students, a growth of more than 700 children, a 400 percent increase in a single school year. This year we have a full-day kindergarten enrollment of 950 students.
