ABOUT KINDERGARTEN:
The program for kindergarten is called "extended"- children go to school full days twice a week.  They are sent home half day (12:40) 3 days a week.  The class is divided-so that only half the class will stay during the extended class day.  The two days of extended hours are focused on individual reading and writing help. 

HELP FOR PARENTS:
PARK AND RECREATION and BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB have a number of after school programs, camps and holiday events that are appealing to new residents.

EXTENDED DAY
TO MY KNOWLEDGE REDDING HAS ONE OF THE BEST EXTENDED DAY PROGRAMS IN THE FAIRFIELD COUNTY AREA (others do have care-but not to the level that Redding provides-definitely one of the main reasons I moved here).

 For working parents, the greatest asset is the extended day program and "Breakfast Club" which essentially provide structured care for children before and after school.  (starts at 7am ends at 6pm) As I described, children are picked up at the elementary school and brought to the center.  In addition to regular extended day activities, parents can choose to add classes from the Park and Rec program to be combined with the extended day-Example: child is picked up at 3 and then taken to a 4 dance class, returned to extended day class until pick-up.  The program also supports Brownies and school sponsored activities.
