[quote=Anonymous]Unless you are really into Montessori or live right next to CHML, I would rank Miner higher for PK (both schools have issues with upper grades but I'm talking just about the PK program here). Mainly because CHML mostly attracts families who are very into Montessori, and if you don't really care, I think you will feel more comfortable at Miner which offers a more traditional (but still excellent, play-based) PK program. We did another DCPS elementary for PK and really loved the program. The teachers tend to be particularly strong because most if not all DCPS PK teachers have a masters in ECE. So they tend to be very up to date on developmental issues and teaching techniques. My DC still talks about the PK4 teacher 3 years later because she was so nurturing and kind. I've heard similar from families at other DCPS PK programs, including Miner.[/quote]
