Has apple tree been open during this year?

Could you tell us which charter it is? Will be useful for our preK lottery list if the commute is doable. Thanks!


Sela.

“There is no situation in which schools can’t be open unless they have evidence of in-school transmission,” said Dr. David Rosen, an assistant professor of pediatric infectious diseases at Washington University in St. Louis.

The risks of being out of school were far greater, many of the experts said. “The mental health crisis caused by school closing will be a worse pandemic than Covid,” said Dr. Uzma Hasan, division chief of pediatric infectious diseases at RWJBarnabas Health in New Jersey.

A huge group of psychiatrists penned a letter for the NYT saying they think Trump is mentally ill but that didn't change anything either.

LMAO you pre-k haters are hilarious. My school has not announced to parents but we plan to have ALL GRADES in person in the Fall, they told staff this and sent the intent to return form. Several staff members sent the email to all and they are retiring or plan to switch schools.

What do you mean by "several staff members sent the email to all and they are retiring or plan to switch schools"?

Teachers would rather retire or switch schools than to sign the intent to return form?

Why? What school is this?

You mean love trolling bitter parent. Who benefited from PK.

Ps. My sped child needs pk, early intervention is key.

Refrain from being complete fools please people.


No ma'am. I am not bitter or mean. I am an ECE teacher. General education ECE should not be housed in buildings that also educate 10 year olds. That it not bitter or mean. It is just how things should work. The scheme of roping white parents in for ECE clearly is not working- because you all leave.
So yes, ECE should exist. At rec centers. No, that is not 'bitter' or 'mean'. It is a much more appropriate use of resources then paying people like me over $100,000 a year to watch 3 year olds sleep for 2 hours a day.
Also, your claim of needign early intervention. Got it. That is what strong start is, no?

No sweetie that’s not what strong start is for, that is for infants and toddlers not PK. You should quit being an ECE teacher if you don’t believe it’s important.

And it’s 1.5 hours but guessing you’re lazy too and just add on extra nap time.

Oh ps, ECE isn’t here for white people, it’s here for BLACK children. Who are often behind, again early intervention. You can do the research yourself.

Kick rocks, I sincerely hope you’re lying about being an ECE teacher and are just a troll.

If you’re paying 100k$ per year for childcare for a3-year-old you should look into another arrangement. There are several daycares/preschools in the area where you could send your 3 year old for 1/5 of the cost.

You’d still pay taxes either way. You may not understand but special needs, ELL, and at risk children benefit the most from PK. A daycare does not provide any kind of specialized service and on top of that it can be pricy.

It’s interesting that people think it’s ok for PK kids to go to daycare and pay by that same token you can pay for your K+ kid to go to private school, be homeschooled by a licensed teacher running a program, etc.

Just because K+ is legally mandated doesn’t mean you don’t have paid options too.
