[quote=Anonymous]Takoma parent and would highly recommend. PK at Takoma is great. We did mixed aged  pk3/pk4 (both mine were very young 3s when they started) and it went great. It’s nice for them to have the older kids in the classroom as role models and usually, they’ll stay with the same teacher/group for pk4 and get the chance to be the “big kid” the following year. It also promotes some nice cross-grade friendships that can remain into the upper grades. There has been some shifting of teachers between classrooms/grades in recent years, and does seem like this year in particular, but it’s not every teacher every year. If you’re looking for somewhere to stay for the whole of elementary school, I’d recommend Takoma over Breakthrough. There is some attrition in upper grades at Takoma and there have been some bumps in the road for upper grades in recent years but overall the experience has been really positive. It’s a great neighborhood school. Facilities and playgrounds are awesome. Staff and teachers are awesome. Admin may be a bit slower to respond during summer - it happens, but the school is good and does PK very well.[/quote]
