I had the impression Harbor is very different from Green Acres. I am curious to know what matters when the majority of parents look for a pre-k program. In my case, I was very specific about wanting a progressive program either Reggio-Emilia inspired or similar. Green Acres is not Reggio Emilia inspired, it actually has some traditional undertones and I was a bit hesitant choosing it over Lowell's PK. We ended up choosing GAS and we were very happy with our choice. The ECU unit there is indeed very special. Still I never found it totally Progressive compared to a Reggio inspired School but they do things in a different way and the teachers were truly good hearted educators. We had to move, so DC didn't try 1st grade or beyond.
