forget it kids.... no naptime anymore. That's baby school stuff.
Preschool naps may become a thing of the past.
The Washington Post reports, some education leaders want to end the practice of even the littlest students taking an afternoon nap during pre-kindergarten programs.
Prince George's County schools chief Andri Hornsby recently told lawmakers he wants to get rid of "all the baby school stuff."
If he gets the funding to make the pre-K program in Prince George's full day, Hornsby says he'll end napping. Anne Arundel County has already done the same in that district's pre-K program.
Supporters of ending naps say students today need all the study time they get. But those who want to let the kids sleep say young children need 10 to 12 hours of sleep to function well, and many aren't getting that at home.
