Guest guest Posted January 5, 2003 Report Share Posted January 5, 2003 The first time I seen K1 and K2 it really freaked me out. Couldn't figure it out. It isnt something all schools do but what it is is basically dividing kindergarten into year one and year two for kids they don't feel can handle regular kindergarten.
