[quote=Anonymous]Holy cow. I have known 3 y.o.s who could sight read, but I don't think this is/should be expected--just like you, I know lots of successful adults who didn't read until they were 5 or 6. What you're describing from the school is nothing like my son's experience in PS3 at a Title I DCPS or PK4 in an immersion charter. It happens that he was an early reader, and he got praise and appropriate instruction, but his classmates were NEVER pushed to read themselves. Now that he's in K, the expectation is that all the kids will be able to read and write some by the end of the year. You can find a much better school for your child. (And for what it's worth, I know several kids with sensory issues who are thriving at Barnard DCPS in Petworth.)[/quote]
