You will soon have the option to enroll your child for a full day of 4-K starting next school year at St. John Bosco. St. John Bosco currently has a half-day 4-K program that runs from 8-11:30, but will begin offering a full time program that will run from 8-3 p.m. Principal Vickie Dassler says the decision for the move came from hearing feedback from families currently enrolled in the half-day program, who also work full time saying that they could benefit from having their child be enrolled from 8-3 like the rest of the classes at the school.
Child care has become a focal point in the area and organizations such as the United Way have been working on ways to address child care in Door County.
Dassler also talked about the plan they have in place to make sure staffing isn’t a problem for the full day program
The expansion of the 4-K program will now put St. John Bosco on par with public school districts such as Sevastopol, Sturgeon Bay, and Southern Door.
