Welcome to Trans Kindergarten!

The touted educational benefits of pre-K are nonexistent

Transitional kindergarten is worthless at best, and in some places, it can be very hazardous for children.

School districts across California are on a recruitment spree, doing what they can to enroll the state’s 4-year-olds into their year-old pre-K or “transitional kindergarten” (TK) program. Districts are trying to sell parents on TK by using school banners, bus bench ads, billboards, and texting and robocall campaigns. The $2.7 billion plan aims to have 400,000 4-year-olds enrolled by 2025, but it has been off to a sluggish start. Estimates from the Legislative Analyst’s Office put average daily attendance for the 2022-2023 school year at about 91,000, well short of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s estimates.

The idea of having the government in charge of educating 4-year-olds has been promoted for years. Most recently, in his State of the Union speech in February, Joe Biden asserted that “children who go to preschool are nearly 50% more likely to finish high school and go on to earn a two- or four-year degree.”

Right before he became governor in 2019, Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom told supporters in San Francisco, “Our role begins when babies are still in the womb, and it doesn’t end until we’ve done all we can to prepare them for a quality job and successful career.”

Yeah, Gavin, that's when you'd have them executed.

Whether through carelessness or for clickbait - I suspect the latter - "Trans" in the article headline is misleading. The article is about transitioning preschool age children into a more formal school environment, not anything transgenderism. Many/most preschools have similar Pre-K classes.
