[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were originally placed in Friendship Armstrong this year for PK3, and we were ecstatic about their Reggio program. The instructors came across as genuinely loving and enthusiastic about the work. And the projects they were having kids do looked fun and engaging. But we found out that it was difficult to get in to the after care program (a must for us). The admin staff were sort of discouraging (but honest!) about the odds of getting in and there were no plans this year to expand the number of slots. Plus they didn't open the application until mid summer so we couldn't really "wait and see." We ended up grabbing a slot at Langley when one was offered in early June. (We are super pleased with Langley for what it is worth. We didn't feel we traded down for guaranteed after care.) Anyway, I think it is a good school with lots of love and creativity, but after care is a necessity, you may want to factor that in to your equation.[/quote] Pp do you mind sharing your waitlist numbers? We live (maybe near you) in Truxton Circle and are hoping for a spot at Langley or Armstrong. TBH I have a bit of envy that my child missed the age cutoff last year as I look at the Langley blog.[/quote]
