How many instructional minutes are required in California kindergarten classrooms?
California's kindergarten instructional minutes are not mandated as a single, specific number. Instead, the state sets minimum daily and yearly instructional time requirements for all grades, including kindergarten, in terms of *hours* and *days*. These are then translated into minutes by individual school districts and schools based on their schedules. Therefore, there isn't a single answer to how many instructional minutes are *required*.
