kindergartenthe End of All-Day Kindergarten?Submitted by marcy on March 12, 2010 - 2:07pmFrom the Daily Beast: "Kids benefit from more hours in school, studies show. So why are full-day kindergarten programs on the chopping block across the country? " All-day kindergarten programs have been steadily on the rise across the country and 60% of schools now offer a full-day program.

Still, with school districts facing severe budget deficits, all-day kindergarten programs might be the targets of drastic funding cuts. »

DescriptionTucker-Maxon began in 1947 as a school where children with hearing loss learned to talk. Today we educate children with typical hearing and children with hearing loss together in small, collaborative classes. Our students who are deaf do not use sign language. Instead, with the help of digital hearing aids, cochlear implants, early diagnosis, and early intervention, our students who are deaf learn to speak and listen very well! Our students with typical hearing benefit from our highly-qualified teachers, language development focus, and low student-teacher ratios. All our students learn to value differences and believe in social justice. Programs: Services: Contact Information
