The Dexter school board considered a proposal to implement all-day kindergarten in the district at its meeting Monday night, the Dexter Leader reported.
Cornerstone Elementary Principal Craig McCalla and kindergarten teacher Kathy Shannon told the board making the switch would provide more learning time for students and allow students to participate in field trips and assemblies, the newspaper reported.
Moving from a half-day schedule to full-day kindergarten would cost the district $247,500, according to the article.
