[quote=Anonymous]The biggest thing I regret is not explicitly preparing my kid for aftercare. We talked so much about school and met his teacher and visited the classroom - but the transition to aftercare was where we struggled. Ask around to find out the deal at your school. But at our school (DCPS Title 1) very few PK3 kids were in aftercare, which surprised me. Only two other kids in his class of 16. And the way it worked was all the parents come and get their kids and then the kids that are “left” get picked up by the aftercare instructor and brought to the gym, where there were totally different (non-teacher) staff. My kid was a MESS and it was an unexpectedly abrupt transition. Wish I’d prepared him. (By January aftercare was his fav part of the day and still is now three years later, FWIW) [/quote]
