What's the best Pk3 and Pk4 programs in DC? Rank 1-5

[Anonymous]

These "What is the best ..." threads are not helpful. What is best for me, may not be the best for you. If commute is important to you, a school across town that may be "the best" (whatever that means) may not be the best for you. ECE is really done well in DC. You really can't go wrong. Just figure out what is important to you (commute, programming, before/aftercare availability, etc etc) and pick from there.

Any chance you live on the Hill?

Why yes I do!

Another Hill poster here: No list of top-tier ECE programs is complete without Ludlow-Taylor. Not only does the school have significant neighborhood buy-in for ECE (and increasingly in upper grades), but LT is the only Rewards school on the Hill (meaning great test scores) and is still a real possibility for admission from OOB for PS3 and PK4.

I admittedly don't know much about Ludlow Taylor's ECE, but by your logic good 3rd grade test scores means great PK? not sure I follow. By that argument JKLM are best ECE because they're top upper ES too.

Well ok, so I'll toss in my own experience with the school. LT has wonderful ECE teachers, renovated school, active PTA, safe loving environment and small enough that the every staff person I see greets my kid by name. LT is also among the most "popular" by the size of its ECE waitlist.

2013 is calling to get the reward status returned.
