Working Mom - New to DaycareBear

[playfelt]

Both of the boys leaviang my daycare this summer will be half day school. The one school offers care for the other half of the day and the second school doesn't claiming there was not enough demand so are only offering after school in the afternoon along with the older kids in the school. Think it was pushed back to 2013 for the final rollout of full day. That seems to be the date being mentioned around here.

Ah -wonder if it is different depending on the Region and the Boards with those regions?

I know I attended a public meeting about the transition and our Boards were told as of 2012 they could only continue to offer half days at schools that had NO children being bussed to them and where the demand for half day was 'greater' than that for the full day alternating options ... so the schools who do not have funding for New full day everyday have at least switched over to all being the full day alternating verses the half days .... this saves on busing costs and a few other shared space issues for boards as well not to mention it is easier for working parents too ... there are a few schools that offer BOTH the full day alternating option and the half day mornings because there was enough of a demand for both but the half day is rare here now!
