Assessed were the views of New Mexico school board members, school nurses, and elementary school counselors regarding school-age day care. Respondents were 277 board members, 214 nurses, and 96 counselors representing a response rate of 62%, 72% and 74% respectively. All three groups reported that latchkey children were evident in their district or school, and that provision of care for these children was important. Responses regarding the best type of care were mixed. Only school counselors rated public school-based programs as their first choice. Board members and nurses rated school-based programs as their second choice. Although a majority of school board members tended to support State regulation of latchkey programs and State funding of care, their support was somewhat less than that of nurses, and considerably less than that of counselors. Respondents agreed that parents were also responsible for funding after-school programs. Respondents expressed concern that funds intended for academic programs might be diverted to support after-school day care programs in public schools. In addition, respondents expressed concern that schools would be assuming increased parental responsibility if after-school programs were initiated. Appendices provide the survey instruments, related letters, and comments of respondents. (RH)
