Lafayette County is definitely an agricultural county, and as such, its population is small. Three thousand nine hundred ninety-five people are scattered over an area of five hundred fifty-one miles. This wide distribution of people has made it hard for the County to provide equal opportunity for all its youth as is designed in the Foundation Program. The problem of equalizing opportunities is present when we try to formulate plans for serviing the pre-school child in extending our educational program to include kindergarten. Ten years ago we had a number of small one-and-two-teacher schools scattered over the County. Today through consolidation we have only four school centers. Through such a program, the County has equalized advantages for all children over six. It is up to the school system to provide similar opportunities for the five-year-olds. The purpose of this paper is to outline and discuss the proposed plans for a kindergarten in a small county. / "August, 1950." / Typescript. / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts under Plan II." / Advisor: Mildred E.
