All Day Kindergarten to be extended to five more local schools

The Province has outlined its plan to have full-day Kindergarten in all schools by 2015.

The program will be rolled out in Ear Falls, Keewatin, New Prospect School, Sioux Narrows and Upsala for 2013 and 2014.

Public School Board Superintendent Caryl Hron says the program has been well received by parents and teachers in Dryden and Kenora.

The final phase of the program will take place in 2014-2015 at Crolancia School in Pickle Lake, Golden Learning Centre in Red Lake, Ignace, King George and Vallyeview Schools in Kenora as well as Lillian Berg and Savant Lake.
