I remember and appreciate those naps in pre-K and kindergarten. As evaclear04 put it, "...studies have shown that taking time to rest during a work day ( adults and children) significantly helps our productivity and our personal health".
So, why scrap nap? I think these measures are attempts on the part of the school systems to make up for their own failures (e.g. low test scores). Instead of employing better teachers and developing improved teaching techniques, these school systems are attempting a very risky 'short cut' and the children are being made to bear the burden of the incompetence of the administrations.
