I refused to attend kindergarten, enjoyed freedom too much. I started first grade at age 5, fighting all the way.

Why don't they just home-school them.
I mean it's only Kindergarten - shapes, colors, alphabet - even an idiot parent could teach their kids that stuff.

Researchers say kindergarten has become the new first grade where little tots are taught to read and write. WHAT?! Our kids went to Private School and they had to know their ABC's, how to print their ABC's and how to read before the school would take them for kindergarten!
How dumbed down have these schools become?! BTW, Illinois doesn't "require" Kindergarten in the Public Schools and many school districts have cut it entirely because of cost.

I remember kindergarten as only 4 hours long and they did a double shift.

I don’t know NY’s dept of ed standards, but I bet there is some sort of financial payoff to the schools by the state for not only enrollment but attendance

I never knew it
wasn't mandatory in NY. I think this article is mistaken.
Kindergarten has been mandatory in NY since the '50's. If not, then why did we all go?

Policymakers in Buffalo say they need the law to improve kindergarten absenteeism rates. In other words, the parents don't want it, but the overlords do.
I thought the government worked for the PEOPLE, not vice versa.

Kindergarten has been mandatory in my state since... I don’t know when. A while. It was full-day kindergarten (vs. 1/2 day) that became mandatory just about 6 years ago.
