Takoma needs to fill the school with younger students to replace the grades they are losing. If their enrollment per grade were to remain stable, they won't be able to fund the arts curriculum, its main selling point, as well.
Thus they will likely open at least one more class of ECE, and there will likely be some OOB seats after all the Early Action people to fill in the classes.
Thanks for this post. Yes, all four of the "New North" middle school feeders (Takoma, Brightwood, LaSalle and Whittier) will have the opportunity to expand their ECE programs to take advantage of the available space. TEC is adding at least one PK class next year.
