[quote=Anonymous]We were at another AT and had a great experience. The teachers were very well-qualified and caring; our kid had some trouble transitioning because she was at home up until school started, and the teachers were amazing at working on that. Our kid started running off without saying goodbye by the second or third month or school. One thing to know is that it is a fairly academic program compared to other preschools. That was a plus for us and for our kid's temperament. She and a substantial group of kids were reading (and I don't mean sight words-- I mean full books, fluently) and writing full sentences by the end of pre-k 4. Some people would see my kid, at barely 5, reading a chapter book and be amazed. While we encouraged reading at home, it really was all AT that got her there. However, some other kids may not mesh well with a more academic program or you may be interested in something a little less structure.[/quote]
