School Board Trustee Shana Hazan sat down with clairetrageser to talk about transitional kindergarten, including why she didn't put her own 4-year-old daughter in the program this year.
On why she didn't send her 4-year-old daughter to TK and instead kept her in her existing preschool program:
"I did not know with confidence that putting her into a TK classroom in the district would provide that same environment and experience. And I think some of my concerns were: 'Are we ready? Do we have the facilities? Do we have staff who are equipped? 'I didn't have confidence in that as a parent, and I didn't want my child to be a guinea pig. And that's why I'm really committed to making sure that every single child has a good experience.
