John, 26:1 student teacher ratios haven't been seen in a long, long, time. Not even your private schools have that ratio. Also, I think that most privates/parochials that offer K do so in an all day setting. All day K is relatively new in public schools. Who suggested that it was a panacea? Yes, Head Start has been shown to have little benefit once the students hit grade 3, but to assume all day K would mirror that is presumptions. The fact that many kids are coming into K without the requisite skills that Common Core demands is a problem. If incoming kindergartners can not read at all upon arrival, or know their letters, a half day program just isn't enough time to get them to read. (Don't compare to when we were kids because curriculums have changed a lot since then). So we have to have an inordinate amount of reading specialists to teach the to read because they start off band. You and I agree that Warwick's results are not good enough. I just don't think that it's the fault of the model.
