My older child goes to a DCPS. My younger child is enrolled in a bilingual daycare, that has free pk3/pk4. I did the lottery for her to get into the DCPS to be with her brother next year but I'm tempted to stay because of the Spanish. She will go to the DCPS regardless in K though.
Two part question 1. Do you stay? or do you switch to one drop off sooner (thinking she will likely loose the Spanish once at DCPS regardless, since we don't speak it at home.... ) 2. Does anyone know any good programs in DC that would help continue her language learning? |

| My daughter has done classes with this program to help maintain her Spanish, https://easyspanish123.com/. Personally I would probably stay at the current school, assuming the double drop off isn’t horrible. Our DCPS is huge and I liked the smaller environment when they are so young. |

| I’d also stay for the smaller environment and continuity. |

+1 for EasySpanish123. But also agree that the more immersion and smaller class size of a preschool is preferable. We found immersion PK3 at DCPS a difficult transition. |

| I know this isn't a response to the original question but I'm curious about the experience folks have had with EasySpanish123 - I am contemplating sending my 4 y.o. for their spring break mini camp in April but don't personally know anyone who has attended the program. I appreciate any thoughts. I'll also post an original message with this question, but figured I'd try on this thread as well. Thanks. |

| My daughter (5) went to the easyspanish123 mini camp for February break and she loved it! They did lots of fun crafts, made a piñata, cooked snacks. I plan to send her back for spring break too! |
