Abstract

Parents may have as many as three choices for which type of kindergarten program to enroll their child. These choices include all-day every-day, alternate-day, or half day kindergarten. This paper compares the reasons that parents choose one program over another. Even though parents felt that the consistency of every-day kindergarten would be beneficial, seventy percent of alternate-day parents chose that program because the cost of all-day every-day was too high. Cost was the single most deciding factor for program choice.
