The half-day three-year-old program. How about you? Good luck!

Sorry, PP here. I wasn't thinking. We applied for the five day, MORNING three-year-old program.

No word yet - full day pre-k here.

[Anonymous]

we're waiting to hear on the 2s program...
does anyone have a sense of timing of letters?

[Anonymous]

The website says Mid-March, I can't find anything more specific. I was thinking about sending an email inquiring about an actual date.

I read in an earlier post that River does not help children get into schools if they try to leave before grade 3. Has anyone heard this?

[Anonymous]

Yes, I've heard it from former parents.

[Anonymous]

i have heard that from 2 current parents that wanted to apply for preK and K and they got no assistance.

[Anonymous]

fyi, i called the school and letters go out end of this week. fingers crossed!

I think that might be the dealbreaker for us. It's just bad policy.

It was the dealbreaker for us (along with other stories about the administration being difficult). While we are convinced that the curriculum is excellent, the facilites (except the playground) beautiful, and the teachers superb, we chose to put our child elsewhere and have not regretted that decision.

I don't suppose you would share the name of the school you chose? Since this is anonymous?
