| Abstract | Based on data from all 50 states, this feasibility study recommends that kindergarten attendance be mandated for children in Indiana starting in 1993. It further recommends that: (1) school corporations be funded for full-day kindergarten on the same basis as other grade levels, with a full day of reimbursement for full-day kindergarten children and a half day of reimbursement for half-day students; (2) corporations that offer full-day kindergarten must offer parents the option of half- or full-day kindergarten; and (3) local property taxes be increased in proportion to the additional state-funded request for full-day students. Information supporting these recommendations is presented in sections that provide: (1) an overview of and rationale for kindergarten programs, including a list of characteristics of high quality kindergarten programs; (2) reasons for offering full-day kindergarten; (3) estimates of district readiness to provide half-day kindergarten on a mandatory basis; (4) estimates of the cost of mandating full-day kindergarten; (5) fiscal impact of and superintendents' views on voluntary full-day kindergarten for which parents pay on a sliding scale; and (6) superintendents' views on, and other states' experiences with, voluntary full-day kindergarten for which parents are not assessed a fee.
