Wantagh has half day k, but we do have bussing, and K kids can enroll in a half day SCOPE enrichment program so they go full day. We also have before and after care.

Lindenhurst has all that stuff, though they recently shrunk the mileage for who gets the bus.

Please keep in mind that this will change for many districts starting the 2012-2013 school year.

Unfortunately, Kindergarten is NOT state mandated.

The 2% tax cap passed by NYS will result in massive cuts to non-mandated programs over the next decadeChat Icon .

Many districts came close to cutting K this year and some, like Levittown, were only saved because of a grant... of course that is only a temporary fix. I wish I was wrong, but with Federal and State deficits what they are and the political decisions being made, more and more programs we grew up with will be cutChat Icon I would not count on full day kindergarten being around for many districts next year.

I would never base a home purchase on this, since it's just one year of your life, in your new home, per child.

Absolutely. Bussing is my biggest concern. I was loving a house in Bayport but walked away b/c of the bussing issue. DH and I work full time we cant deal with that stress. Full day Kindergarten is just a plus.
